Why do you think it's OK to bomb children

Why do you think it's okay to shoot children, burn children alive in their own homes, kidnap children, murder children's parents in front of them, sexually abuse children, hold children in abysmal conditions as political bargaining chips?

Do you want to play this game? And I know you'll scream that Israel does all of that to Palestinian children, and I don't doubt that we can find examples of all of those. But that does not mean that Hamas are not rational actors with their own agency who choose to enact these examples of specific, targeted, malicious violence against children.

I'm not going to claim that dropping a bomb and killing a child as a result is good, or excusable. But I don't know, I deal with like, the real world? And I'm fairly confident if you lined up a Hamas insurgent, who gleefully physical and psychologically tortured children as "praxis" of "resistance," with an IAF fighter pilot who dropped a bomb after receiving an order from their superiors in order to eliminate a threat, and children died as a consequence... normal people would argue that the Hamas insurgent is the less moral person in that lineup.

Intent matters, but it doesn't absolve. And that's my whole point.

Of course, you'll claim that all IAF aircraft come with a custom installed "target nearest child" button, and that your Hamas woobies had no choice they're traumatized they had a trigger response, and that's why they carefully planned this attack for years. I won't get stuck in the weeds with people who don't want to be convinced and can't think rationally.

Nice try though. I do think bombing children is bad. I also know that I have zero effect on this war, it will continue no matter my thoughts about it. Children will continue to die. What I do know is that people like you completely abrogate the responsibility of Hamas in this conflict, which is rooted in ignorance and Jew hatred. What I do know is that Israel has proved to an international court that they are operating without intent to indiscriminately kill civilians, without intent to ethnically cleanse, without intent to commit genocide.

So they will continue operations, until Hamas offers unconditional surrender and/or all the hostages are released/rescued. That's just a fact. And it's also a fact that Hamas knows there's no better way to turn public opinion on something than saying "it killed my child!" which is the exact pr tactic they and their mouthpieces (aka you) accused and continue to accuse Israel of doing.

Every accusation is a confession 🤭

I do know that children are dying, which I find immoral, and those responsible will have to reckon with that. But I don't know how many children have died, and what the causes were in every case (I can say with certainty that some children have been killed by Hamas' own rockets misfiring). Also, again, if Hamas was not letting children shelter in their tunnels, if Hamas was stockpiling rockets and weapons in SCHOOLS AND DAYCARES, if Hamas is not capable of weighing the cost of civilian lives and suing for peace for their sakes... they are also responsible.

And as a final note, while children dying in this war is inevitable and condemnable, how does each "side" choose to honor murdered and maimed children? From what I've seen, Jews on social media are respectful of all children's privacy (and of their families), organized to pay for the hospital bills and funeral of a Palestinian boy murdered in Chicago, mourn the children who've died in Israel and in Gaza, pray for them, keep them in their thoughts. There are Jews in Israel are protesting the war! A lot of them. They want their family members to come home and they want to stop the bleeding in Gaza. It's like you don't care about reality you just want your edgy one-liner to condemn all Jews and Jewish allies you come across.

What has the Hamasnik side been doing to honor children? Sharing photos and videos, doctoring footage, stealing footage from Syrian children who've suffered and died? Laughing at dead Jewish children? Harassing Israeli teenagers who were released from captivity? Denying their stories and dismissing their trauma? Assaulting Jewish college students? Insisting that Jews have a penchant and a lust for murdering children? Threatening Jewish day schools and other Jewish institutions where children also attend in the Diaspora? Cheering on Hamas and Hezbollah and the Houthis as they fire rockets indiscriminately knowing that without the Iron Dome, children will die? Using dead Palestinian children as props and political tools?

I think this says a lot.

⭕”only” 1 round of ROCKETS from HEZBOLLAH at Rosh HaNikra overnight.

🔸DEAL NEWS.. Senior officials in the Israeli security system: “(US Sec State) Blinken made a mistake when he told the truth that Hamas is the obstacle to the deal and not Netanyahu.”

.. Representatives of Hamas and Islamic Jihad met in Qatar, and announce - the ceasefire talks have collapsed:  "The movements emphasized that any negotiation should include a complete withdrawal of the IDF from the Strip. We place the responsibility for the failure of the mediators' efforts on Israel.

.. Washington Post report: In the US it is estimated that Hamas leader Sinwar is interested in the deal because he is "imprisoned" underground and Hamas suffers from a shortage of ammunition and supplies.  

.. ( Notice the conflict with the statement from the terror movements - the US sources all are giving reasons why negotiations should succeed - while the terror movements continue to not move an inch while blaming Israel.  Similarly notice daily US statements demanding Israeli flexibility, but only once have we heard about Hamas being intransigent. )

.. US Pres. Biden spoke to PM Netanyahu: Biden emphasized the urgency of reaching a cease-fire agreement and the release of the abductees and discussed the removal of obstacles the latest in the deal.

🔹Sources close to Hezbollah: 'As soon as Hamas officially declares that the talks are over, from Hezbollah's point of view it will be a green light for a response to Shukar's assassination' and perhaps even immediately.
