    It’s on purpose, but on the hamas side, they use children and civilians in general as human meat shields. They fire their rockets from schools and hospitals, hide their equipment in residential areas. Just to scream „Israel bad“ when one of these outpost gets attacked

      How convenient, when israel kills civilians its because palestine is hiding behind them, in their own country, being bombed. Its only heartless civilian massacres the other way around.

        It seems so, if you gloss over the fact that Hamas is using unguided rockets to throw in the general direction of Israel and Israel is using precision ammunition to target the places the first were fired from.

          So civilians killed by israel are even more egregious then. Like that strike on evacuees that just happened.

            You’re suggesting that intent doesn’t matter, causing accidental civilian deaths while defending one’s self is an act morally equivalent to intentionally targeting and murdering civilians. I disagree. In most legal systems and ethical systems intent matters a lot.

              And palestinians are defending themselves from the much deadlier attacks and long term military occupation of their country and borders.

      Don’t try to claim moral superiority in a blood feud where both sides commit atrocities.

        As if the cartoon this thread is about wasn’t claiming moral superiority for the other side.

          They are a violent resistance movement, opposing a violent colonialist movement.

            Israel is expanding into the West Bank, not Gaza. They are resisting nobody. Israel even removed all of its citizens from that area. They are terrorists. They are founded by and doing the bidding for Iran.

              If you see this as a black and white conflict, there’s no point in taking to you.

                By this point I have shown a more nuanced view than you. As I know the difference between the Gaza and West Bank conflict

                    No I don’t. You are. The Hamas Hasen their Charta explicitly names the iradication of the Israeli state. They are the ones who want genocide.
