    So what’s the Alternative?

    Not shooting children in the face. Is that REALLY hard for you to understand?

    Hamas made the hospital into a legitimate target in a war by using it like that.

    Oh? Is Hamas a legitimate state authority now? Doesn’t that make the IDF actions a war crime then? I thought they were TERRORISTS which means that this is an enforcement response, not an invasion. You don’t get it both ways. Either Hamas are the state of Palestine or they aren’t, and they can’t make anything a “legitimate target”.

    Can’t evacuate, can’t bomb, can’t go in on foot

    They can leave…

    Should Hamas be rewarded for using their most vulnerable civilians as a shield like this?

    Weird argument given that the presence of civilians isn’t slowing down the IDF at all. In fact they seem to have a ton of practice at killing civilians in Palestine. Not very good shields are they?

    Since we are proposing questions here, I have one for you:

    Where are civilians in Palestine supposed to go? You seem to think that its OK to slaughter them like pigs for going to a hospital. Where should the IDF NOT be allowed to butcher Palestinian children? Seriously, tell me one place that if an IDF bomb blows a bunch of people apart its a bad thing. Is there ONE SQUARE INCH of Gaza in which the IDF is not allowed to shoot a civilian in the face?
