    Better analogy would be the killer in uvalde using a kid as a human shield while also shooting into the other classrooms trying to kill other kids.

    Sure, and then you bomb the school to kill them all. Also bomb all the surrounding buildings just in case.

      Look, we all know that if Israel wanted to kill two million people in Gaza, no one in the world could stop them. Not saying it’s okay that even 0.5% have been killed because that is still a horrifying number. But the idea that they are indiscriminately blowing up every single building is just theatre of the absurd.

        Looking at the demographics of the casualties, what suggests the IDF is targeting Hamas in any meaningful way? They’re pretty squarely in line with the Palestinian population broadly - that certainly suggests the killing is indiscriminate to me.

        That’s probably only because they want to move in, so they can’t wreck the place too bad.

        The arrogance is amazing.

        That tiny country could be destroyed by a brisk wind and two battles with bad luck.
