I find it difficult to believe that people were herded into tent cities, expecting to be treated humanely (at least to some degree) only to be bombed and strafed by aircraft that cannot possibly know who is, and who is not Hamas.
Don't get me wrong, I do not support any group that will routinely kill others, regardless of their "cause". Netanyahu is using Hamas as an excuse to kill people. There is certainly no way I can, with good conscience support Hamas (or any other group of miscreants and fanatics).
The destruction of Palestinians in Gaza is genocide. Children have no ties to any group, except family, but they may well become anti-Israeli, when that family is destroyed, by the whim of another. I'd be pissed off if this was happening to my family.
I've seen civilians killed in a war that was unjustified over fifty years ago. I have been anti-war ever since, and cannot fathom why some people would kill others, just to stay in power.
Sorry if you don't agree, but reality is often very ugly.
