But when you’re targeting a single house in a congested neighborhood, a SDB could get the job done without taking out all the houses alongside it..

Looking at some of the images on the news and you will never think it was done by modern, guided weapons. Some of the scenes would not be out of place in WWII blitz raid footage.

In the past Israeli forces have used house demolision as a form of punishment/warning against those who it sees as supporting its enemies (because of how extremely important houses are to people in arab cultures). I think this is just an extention of that policy, only difference is that LGBs are now used instead of bullozers.
