Several news flashes to the denser people:
Killing Yassin does have a target, and there are signs of destabilization in Hamas, because Rantisi delcares himself leader, and Haled Mash'al demands a vote for leadership after the mourning is over. Also, Hamas now has no high spiritual authority.
Yassin was on Israeli targets several times in the last months and wasn't killed because he had too many civilians surrounding him.
The new Israeli policy is a response to a series of failed attempts by Hamas to create "mega terrorist attacks" including a failed attempt to blow up containers of gas that would have killed Eli and half of his city, some week ago.
The new Israeli policy won't stop here, but will continue for several weeks.
Also, while Hamas is enraged, they have absolutely nothing new to show. For the last 3 months they were rolling at 200% steam to try and make terrorist attacks. Had Israel not stepped in, I'm sure that in the next month or two, Hamas would have managed to create another large terrorist attack.
Israel decided to act very harshly against the leaders of Hamas, to destabilize it.
