Good point. So much horrific stuff attributed to them lately, it's hard to see how Israel ever regains legitimacy.

Good question. The current strategy seems to be bomb a building, kill a lot of innocent civilians

Typical false equivalency of trying to tar and feather any criticism of Israel as automatically pro Hamas/antisemitic.

When you immediately play the "you're pro-Hamas or antisemite" card, you forfeit all credibility.

This is terrible. As WCKitchen said, aid workers should never be targets. Aaand now a confirmation.

Did you just call World Central Kitchen's twitter account "Hamas' press office"???

They quoted the Hamas press office. They don't know what happened yet -- just that it's awful.

No, I did not. WCKitchen said there are reports -- and those reports are from the Hamas regime press office.

To those defending the IDF's "strategy" here, wouldn't it therefore be an appropriate response to Hamas' initial attack

That is the logic of the assertion that Israel isn't responsible for actions of its armed forces.
