Nobody wants to see those kids die more than Hamas. It is pan-Islamism's strongest weapon against the world's western democracies. These kids are victims of a religious cult that put them in harm's way on purpose. The bomb is actually for Hamas, not the kids.
Yeah well terrorists don't get to dictate the terms of the engagement. Hamas has to go and the tunnels has to go too.
And if the people of Gaza want to put their kids on top of the tunnels and in the room with a bunch of Hamas members, that's on the people of Gaza. They could and they should surrender tomorrow and this war would be over.
They don't just get to declare themselves immune from attack because as a culture they've decided human shields is not just acceptable, but somehow honorable.
I'm a pretty left wing person. Two time Bernie alum. Kindly imagine that your opinion is not the only one and that perhaps you've been tricked by a sensationalist media that wants to reelect Donald Trump and a foreign media that is funded by actual far right dictators? Or perhaps I am not a troll, but a head of state of virtually any western nation, or a member of Congress from either party, or one of the hundreds of thousands of people who work in the foreign service or intelligence corps and just know more about this.
What do they care, Hamas leadership is hiding underground with plenty of luxuries and food, if not living it up in some foreign capital in a penthouse apartment? They mourn the dead but the culture does celebrate it, Hamas and their supporters do profit off dead kids, use their deaths to their advantage.
Everyone is also charged with the intent to bring about the natural and probable consequences of their own as actions. Is this not what they had in mind when they built the tunnels? Did they think they'd mass shoot 1,000 Israeli civilians and take hundreds more as hostages and provoke anything other than siege war?
In that sense, as to the inevitable collateral casualties, there's agreement. Hiding Hamas members under 1,000,000 children's feet and awaiting their deaths is both the thing that requires Hamas be finished off and the thing that is Hamas's most powerful weapon ever.

You are fucking disgusting. If Israel can only "finish Hamas off" by killing 500 000 children then Israel is fucking incompetent and needs to find a different way. There is no reality in which that is acceptable.
Obviously that would be unacceptable. That isn't what I suggest. 500,000 people won't be killed. They killed only 28,000 after eight months. What a joke to call that genocide. 99% of Gaza still alive, apparently not so insane as to get tricked into being human shields for terrorists. They knew what the tunnels were for when they put Hamas in charge and let them sink shafts through all their colleges and hospitals and apartment buildings. 450 miles of tunnels in an area only 25 miles wide. Sold out the foundation of the land to kill 1,000 Israelis, nearly all of them Jews. I'm sure the Hamas leaders get paid by Iran per Jew killed
Hey, maybe instead of seeing more dead kids, the people of Gaza could, I don't know, help defeat Hamas and maybe someday know hope and prosperity, rather than living in abject poverty under a "government" that is happy to see them die to Israeli bombs? Just an idea. Doesn't seem like the current course has worked well for Gazans. If I were the 99% in Gaza, I'd be looking for change, but hope and free will are other victims of Hamas's leadership of Gaza.
Nobody is going to miss Hamas when it's gone and it will be gone. Bet. Will you admit to being wrong about all this when the IDF does finish off Hamas, stops bombing targets, and ~98% of Gaza is still alive, ready to help rebuild?
E: To the utter know nothing that reported me for advocating killing children. Literally eat shit. How dumb could you be to read this and think I would be so disgusting as to suggest children should be killed? Sorry the news made you so sad. Really, though, reporting my post for saying war is necessary *even if *some kids get caught up in it, that's the same thing as saying children should be killed? No, dumbass, every one of those kids body's is on Hamas. Everyone of them was an unintentional casualty of Israel defending itself from Hamas's leadership. 15,000 reasons for Hamas to be destroyed, and maybe then the next generation of Gaza can have a chance in hell at actually living a normal life. Your happy to sentence millions of Gaza to live and die under terrorists because you are too sad about reality.
Ukraine is a sovereign nation with a fairly and democratically elected government, who was the subject of an unprovoked invasion for territorial conquest. What a joke to compare the two. Russia is defending itself from jack shit. Russia is leveling apartment buildings and killing civilians by the dozen, and they aren't making any claims that there are terrorists inside the buildings or tunnels dug under them, they are making no attempt to warn anybody. They didn't ask anyone to evacuate. They're murdering people without cause.
