    Way to equate self-defense with cold-blooded medieval murder. Israel didn’t start this but they sure as hell will finish it.

    Hamas did earn a military reprisal, and they’re hiding among civilians. Civilians who voted them into power. Let’s not pretend that they don’t share responsibility to some degree.

    Maybe having lots of kids and remaining in Gaza where your government is literally a terrorist organization isn’t the best idea to keep children safe.

    I think we all know the real point is to maximize civilian and child casualties so that they can make Israel look like bad guys in the press. Hamas wanted people to ignore evacuation orders and stay in buildings as they were being bombed.

      Hamas has kept power for almost two decades without an election, of which over 50% of the population of Gaza was too young to vote in, on account of them not being born.

      Innocent people are dying because Israel propped up the terrorist Hamas to prevent a real, peaceful government from forming and bringing forward a two country solution.

        And no one cared about the terrorist regime - especially those who don’t have to live under Hamas and yell “Free Palestine”. Everyone liked Hamas well enough as long as they kill some jews once in a while.
