Historic. An intelligence and tactical triumph. Not they need it, but it should further strengthens Israel's resolve to rescue the other 70, or so, hostages.
Of course, the haters point to the deaths of Hamas civilians, but the haters are just victims of Hamas propaganda. If Hamas didn't kidnap and then hide the hostages among civilians, their wouldn't be civilian casualties, or at least very few. It's a simple equation, just return the hostages and there will be a cease fire. The haters need to point their fingers at Hamas.
