    Even if true, does it justify bombing and killing everyone in that hospital?

      That’s the thing

      Hamas is awful for putting military installations near civilian infrastructure, and the Israeli military is awful for bombing indiscriminately despite their advanced military tech and resources.

      We don’t need to pick one or the other

        Im not sure if i would blame Israel. If someone was barricaded next door to you taking people off the streets, taking pot shots over the fence and holding human shields you would want something done too. Unfortunately, while any action taken should miniseries danger to non-combatants they are literally in the line of fire.

        They tried blockades and cutting power, but everyone complained at that too. What are you meant to do when your opponent is deliberately trying to make you kill civilians to get rid of them?

          If only there were some middle ground between “doing nothing” and “leveling the entire building from orbit”. Perhaps something like sending in ground troops who can separate the terrorists from 6yo children.

            Oh, I support invasion - just been arguing in soo many places forgot to mention it here.

            But everyone seems to have an issue with ground assault too.

            So send in iserali troops that cam get killed while trying to clear the tunnels and who could also in the heat of battle shoot innocent people ?

            What dumb logic is that. You are just introducing more people that can die into the situation.

                Well put.on your fatigues and go raid the hospital big boy. It’s really easy to be concerned about innocent lives when you don’t have to put yours on the line.

                I’ll keep the innocent soldiers safe and just bomb hamas

                    I love how you go towards hamas being innocent and soldiers for Isreal bot being innocent.

                    Let’s face it, you just want more iseralies to get killed

          What should Hamas do? Put their bases out in the open and announce where they are? They would be blown up within minutes.
