I'm not really going to push any further since every time I question your claims you seem to come up with more extreme statements without defending what you said originally, but I do want to make some points.
First, I never said that on one side are the good guys and the other side the bad guys. In my view, no political entity is morally superior to another. Applying morality to the sphere of international relations will only end in a biased conclusion. I'm sure you don't agree with that, but I'm not the one drawing lines in the sand. When I say something is good or bad I'm expressing a point of view from general human interest. In the long run, the Gaza War will have had a negative influence on Israel, imo, because it boosted an enormous amount of hatred towards Israel.
Second, "disproportionate" is subjective, so you're entitled to your opinion. but looking at the figures of casualties, very very few people would be convinced to say it wasn't disproportionate, even if they have preconceived biases one side or the other. And I don't know why you're bringing up the human shields thing again when you were forced to renounce that position in the Gaza war thread. Individual instances, sure. That doesn't account for the hundreds of deaths. Israeli soldiers were also using human shields.
Third, I'm confused as to where you got the idea of the U.N. sanctioning Israel. Sounds absurd to me, considering the U.S. has vetoing rights. Individual companies may have tried to punish Israel economically, but it's really done nothing. Sanctioning would be great though, would be much more effective than Islamist militarism to the cause of peace. No hints of it happening though.
You may have a point on Obama, but I still doubt he was showing public support for the actual scale of military action.
