Israeli missile attack in Gaza dense populated area to stop Hamas rocket bombardment..is it worth it?

The news has just confirmed that Israeli forces has just bombed Gaza dense populated area killing civilians to stop rocket and mortar attack on south Israel. The target was supposedly Hamas controlled armed forces that are police's post and confirmed Hamas's controlled buildings that houses terrorist but instead..a random target..Interior Ministry building packed in the middle of residential area.

The closures of Gaza border crossing making all supplies cut off..food..oil and medicine run out and civilian trapped. Humanitarian effort made by UN cut off and civilians are slowly dying.

Does the attack by Israeli forces as a retaliation by rockets fire in south Israel worth it?

Update:

holbrook..the Palestinians are blowing up a bus in Israel killing civilians is simply because they are terrorist..they do not care for people's lives..the same apply to all terrorist. Israel should not do the same as them because they are a civilised nation. This is what i think though..

    and what if they dont? Is letting your sworn enemy shoot at you a good thing. Gee when the enemy uses its civilian population that supposets the actions of the enemy to hide in it..well sorry about the extra casulaties.

    Its a vicious circle. The west bank is so densely populated you cannot hit any target without endangering civilians. We used to say of the IDF, first class equipment, second class army and third class enemy.... Its not right for Hamas to fire into Israel, its not right to do so from populated areas nor is it right for Israel to retaliate against the population at large. However if you can think of an alternative - you are one up on every major international negotiator of the last 30 years.

    Yes it is worth it...the Terrorist "Palestinians" have no problem in blowing up a bus or a restaurant with really innocent people...when they stop doing that, Israel will stop killing them....
