    Killing as many as possible is very untrue. If the aim was to kill everyone, the conflict would have been over within a week and 2 million people would be dead.

    Israel has tolerances how many civilians can be killed for one Hamas member. Issue is that I don’t believe that 100 lives are worth for a single unimportant terrorist. That’s worth condemning.

    Also, targeting homes should be the last resort if nothing else is possible. Not the first option. This is worth condemning, as well.

      They want to make life as cruel and horrible as possible for everyone in Gaza. Also their goal is to kill as many as possible while having people defend them for “not targeting civilians”.

        Rather it seems to me they don’t really care. They just want to get the job done while testing how far can they go. And they know they can go very far because otherwise west would lose a close ally in mideast.

        And it’s quite sad because despite the fact that Israel has the right to defend itself, it should not have a right to do what it is currently doing.

            Israel has the right to defend itself like every country. It does not occupy Palestinian territories, just undisputed ones (which is also illegal). In terms of Gaza, they withdrew in 2005.

            So whilst starting the war against Hamas was fully understandable, it has to be done in accordance with the international law. And Israel fails to do that.
