    Commiting genocide against a civilian population is not self defense.

    Only Hamas is doing that, though.

      Isreal is indiscriminately bombing civilian/Palestinian population centers and diving people out of their homes.*

      What Isreal is doing absolutely falls under the category of genocide.

      Kill civilians is indefensible.

        Isreal is indiscriminately bombing civilian/Palestinian population centers and diving people out of their homes.*

        A 48 hour WW2 era artillery barrages would flatten the Gaza Strip. Believing that Israel is “indiscriminately bombing” the strip requires you to believe that they’re the most incompetent military force to have ever walked the planet.

          When I say “indiscriminate” I mean “disregard for civilian casualties” not “random bombings”.

            They clearly have a regard for civilian casualties. That’s why they haven’t hit some mosques, schools and other buildings that are known to be seats of Hamas’ power.

              People who bomb civilian areas do not care about civilians casualties.

      Would you prefer we call what Israel is doing ethnic cleansing instead?

        That’s probably what they would like to do in their fantasies – make Gazans gtfo from that general area – but given their inefficiency of doing it, I don’t really know what’s going on. You don’t “ethnically cleanse” a rapidly growing population of 2 million by killing a few thousand here and there.

        Their birth rate is about 24/1000, so about 50000 new children are born there every year.

            You show me 5 pictures and say this is ethnic cleansing? Do you have any idea what you are talking about?

            So tell me, since you seem to know so much. What is the full context of the strikes shown in these pictures? How many Hamas terrorists were killed? How many civilians? Why did Israel strike these areas?

            I have no idea what you’re trying to say showing these pictures. What is the context? How many terrorists and terrorist equipment was destroyed? Why did Israel attack these areas? Do you know any of these things?

              You are a moron if you can’t figure out that this is not what “targeted” bombing that values civilian lives looks like. Honestly.
