Children never deserve to be murdered. Ever. No matter by whom or for what reason. I don't have any response to the rampant amount of Islamophobia in general displayed here. Not all Muslims are violent misogynists. Innocent civilians who have done no wrong should never be murdered under any circumstances.
Murder is deliberately targeting, it is a war crime, it is what Hamas did, it is what Nazis did.
When terrorists hide behind civilians and civilians are killed inadvertently in the midst of a war it is called collateral damage, they are not intentionally targeted and it is not Anwar crime. Again hamas is the war criminal hiding behind them.
In every war civilians die because of collateral damage, in WW2, the civil war, every war. The difference is hamas targets children and hides behind them, Israel takes steps to avoid civilian casualties
No, no, no. Throwing a fucking bomb randomly into a civilian neighborhood is not collateral damage. The civilians are the direct damage. Starving children and depriving them of water and healthcare is murder.
You're deliberately misrepresenting every single action taken by the IDF.
No I'm not, the IDF targets hamas, maybe sometimes they miss. Hamas has been launching hundreds of rockets a day indiscriminately into Israel for years.
The gazans should go into Egypt, Hamas is the government and controls where aid goes
Obviously you are a slogan yeller and it's broken your brain.
The IDF targets militants, if they were targeting civilians they could kill millions. Everyone can see hamas specifically hides behind civilians
If there is a military target in a civilian household then it is ok to destroy it, they give warning and it is a war crime for Hamas to place the target their anyway. Terrorists and criminals would take over the world in a day if they could simply hide behind civilians. Do you know how many civilians were killed in WW2, in every war? Hamas is the one trying to maximize civilian casualties in gaza, Israel is trying to avoid them but it is ridiculous to think Israel would not respond to this. Why is it you people have nothing to say about pals when they deliberately target civilians and say oh their land is occupied but that Israel should not retaliate even when doing everything they can to target militants? It is disingenuous tactic to cry when civilians are killed as collateral damage but say nothing when they are deliberately targeted. Or maybe you are a victim of propaganda.
You are ignorant of the facts, it's not that there 'might be' a military target, it's that they are known military targets in civilian areas, it is not disrupted that this is how Hamas operates. You keep employing this trope 'aimed at children' ... It is the pals who endorse and specifically attack civilians, the IDF tries to avoid civilians.
I don't know what your question was but you keep bringing up murdering children but you are only outraged when Israel kills children. You are not outraged when the pals do it and the pals do it to a much greater degree. You are a crisis actor, if you really had this moral spine you would be even more outraged at how hamas and other pals target civilians, you would be saying how these groups have to removed from pal gov. But you are not concerned , you only being out this voice when Israel is trying to target Hamas, who id they are not stopped will continue terrorist attacks.
And the reason you have this selective outrage is because you don't think Israel has a right to exist. Either you are an Islamic fascist who believes the world should be violently conquered for islam or you are subject to trite propaganda. If you are not a Muslim I can show you simply that the pals are not nice people who just want peace, they are Islamic fascists and they will instigated conflict against any non Muslim nation at one point or another. Do you really think that Jews should be barred from Israel/Palestine? They are the natives. Do you actually believe that if the occupation ended there would be peace with the pals?
The problem is that the IDF apparently misses so much that historically, Palestinian casualties have been over 20 times higher than Israeli casualties, but yet you think the attack on October 7th was what "started a war". Hamas rockets bad, IDF rockets good, or what? Oh I forgot, murdering 20 people for one is ok when done in retaliation (/s)
The reasons the causalities are higher for the pals is that they are not able to kill as many people as they would like and they hide behind civilians. IDF targets terrorists, Hamas hides behind civilians, Hamas targets civilians.
And the reason gaza is under blockade is because they have previously used all their resources for terrorism.
And if you go back you can see that the genesis of this conflict.is explicit - that these are Islamic fascist who against any non Muslim state of any dimensions and will fight it to the death. Jews are the natives of the land , for hundreds of years there were laws against Jews in Israel as well as every other Muslim country. When Jews immigrated in the 20th century they did not displace anyone and infact their development caused many migrants to move to the land. The intolerant Muslims were against any Jews in the land and they went to war over there existence and that when they were displaced. Imagine being so bigoted that you go to war against the natives of the land, who do you think built Jerusalem or Hebron or Nazareth ?
