Western media claims about Hamas and its rockets

From a comrade who works for an international NGO in the Middle East (she/he does not want to be cited):  "But Asad, I want to assume that bombing a house full of civilians is ok if the house is storing rockets, but who is checking that? If these fucking journalists don't want to question the legality and morality of these attacks, shouldn't they at least verify that the claims about the rockets are true?
Then, the claim that Hamas is firing rockets from near homes, where should they fire from? Build a barrack and give its coordinates to Chris Guinness to give to the Israelis? Or from the many football fields that they have there?
And did Anne Barnard who affirmatively concluded that Hamas is operating in civilian areas ever mentioned that about her beloved Syrian opposition groups?"
