But if your mother was allowing you to use her house as a staging area for your murders, then her house is fair game.

Not true. I've had this explained to me. The mindset in Palestine is that Israelis are 'civilians' because everyone is required to do military service, thus everyone will end up or has ended up in the IDF, who go about bombing in Palestine.
That kind of logic is just an excuse for genocide. "Because this two year-old child is Israeli, I am justified in murdering her, because she will be a soldier in 16 years."

At any rate, what you just said proves my point. Palestinians are firing rockets indiscriminately at Israelis, because in their eyes, the only good Jew is a dead Jew.

Infrastructure that helps support an enemy's war effort against you is a legitimate target.
