    Oh I love allegories. Let me try.

    Imagine there was a murderer in your building. But he is not really interested in murdering you, he keeps shooting at some other people you also hate. The feds have tried to go into the building to extract the murderer, but his friends and you lynched the feds when they tried. The murderer has stockpiled his guns in the building and the feds figure that if they can’t get to the murderer at least they can destroy his guns and vantage point from which he is firing at people. They don’t really want to destroy the building but the murderer is actively trying to kill people and the people he is trying to kill demands action.

    You receive a text message that the building you are in will be destroyed shortly. You want to leave, but now the murderer says he will kill you if you do.

    It is a very silly thing to think that having a “civilian” stay in a legitimate military target ( rocket launcher and or rocket storage ) makes it a place that is untouchable!

        Are you telling me there are people being told their building will be blown up who leave the building to go stand just a few meters away on the street it sits on?

      Palestinians don’t get text warnings. Their warning of bombs is just smaller bombs.

        This is not true. Israel goes through great lengths to warn of strikes including phone calls, texes, flyers, and tv broadcasts. Just fucking Google it. There is no moral equivalent here, really take two fucking seconds to consider what the person you were replying to said.

      There is no helping the clowns in this forum. They’re lost and don’t understand the costs of living in a terrorist society. There has been billions spend on providing aid, proving avenues, providing resources to the gaza strip.

        “the cost of living in a terrorist society”

        If Hamas orders civilians to stay in buildings that will be bombed, those lives are taken by Hamas, not Israel.
