    Yes that’s right, they shoukd all go out into an open field and stand out in the open together so Israel can kill them all with a single airstrike and not hit any civilians. So their corpses can be considered honorable by random chuds on the internet.

    Oh and just a question, do you think the French resistance fighters during WW2 were also terrible people for “hiding” behind civilians?

      The military does have a responsibility to protect its civilians. Because hamas choose to start a war and continue to conduct war with blatant use of the civilian population as cover we shouldn’t be surprised or shocked when civilians are caught up in the crossfire.

      The death toll that’s given by hamas doesn’t include militants which is why it must always be mentioned. 40,000 deaths sounds worse than 20,000 military casualties and 20,000 civilian casualties. Especially when we know that the hamas military strategy is to maximize civilian casualties.
