a rocket just sounds a bit extreme to kill one physically disabled guy with it. They could have used something different. A sniper? I don't know much about this sort of ops it seems lol but I'm sure there must have been a much cleaner? and yet still efficient way to have the job done.

I've no problem with a Hamas leader or an Israeli soldier killed. I've got a lot of problem with the increasing casualties (usually innocent passer-bys) on both sides.

If by that you meant that the increasing civilian casualites bother you more then military ones then I agree with you. I don't believe you can equate a soldier to a terrorist but you can differentiate them both from civilians. A soldier is not a civilian. If soldiers are hurt or worse during duty that was it, they were doing their job and unfortunately got hurt or died while doing it, it's sad and I wished it happened less often but still..
