Wake up you Moron.

 

That's a surprising assertion. You must see different news to the rest of us. 

 

Are you saying that the lions share of the children's proportion of the ~64K killed in Gaza to-date, (since the start of the current Israeli offensive) have been killed by Hamas? I'd like to see some evidence for that, anything. Based purely on probability, and plenty of actual evidence, I'd say the IDF are responsible for the lions share of children's deaths in Gaza. Plus most of the rest of the innocent victims. 

 

Sure, Hamas are wicked terrorist scum, but what do they gain from slaughtering 10's of thousands of their own people? Nothing as far as I can see.

I think Hamas and their refusal to evacuate civilians coupled with their form for hiding munitions and hostages in built up area's is the reason do many kids are killed.

 

London's children was evaluated during the Blitz for humanitarian reasons. Hamas chooses inhumanity. Quite literally.

Where are you going to evacuate them too exactly?

[sime42]

The supposedly safe "humanitarian zones" perhaps. Except they're already overfull, and far from safe as they're repeatedly attacked by the IDF. Frying pan or fire.

The 99% of Gaza that the IDF are not carrying out ground operations on.

 

Or the benevolent Arab neighbours?

Gaza is surrounded, iron wall on one side, Israeli Navy guarding the sea on the other, they are not allowed to leave, nothing in or out, huge population density for the size of the area.

Again, where are you going to safely evacuate too?

Benevolent Arab neighbours... sounds good except the borders are closed, have been for a long time. It was a very crowded piece of land before, and moving the population to a small corner makes the population even more concentrated .. there is pretty much nowhere for them to be evacuated to.

 

Though from your earlier comment - I'd agree hiding underneath hospitals and so on - in and among the civilians is not a decent thing to do for an army.

 

As for 99% of Gaza that the IDF are not carrying out operations in... today.... 90% of housing in Gaza is damaged or destroyed. They have carried out operations throughout the Gaza strip. Are you suggesting perhaps that Hamas should be encouraging its population to march from one end to the other and back regularly, perhaps pushing the hospital beds as they go?

 

No, no where for them to go, no escape for the population.

[Mike Hill]

90% my hairy bottom.

 

I doubt very much that 90% of the population is living under canvas.

Not that I particularly want to watch the video again, but do any of you with knowledge of firearms think the bullet that hit his neck was a ricochet from his chest plate?
