    Certainly not for the lack of trying. It’s just that the iron dome is protecting those hospitals on Israel’s side. It shoots down dozens if not hundreds of rockets shot by Hamas daily, some sources say 7000+ since October 7th, which are aimed at who knows what kind of targets.

    Just because Israel is a (, not the,) bad guy in this war doesn’t mean Hamas are any less evil.

      I’m not trying to say Hamas is not evil, but equating the terrorist attacks on October 7th with IDF’s intentional bombing of hospitals, schools, killing 4000 children doesn’t, and shouldn’t be sound mathemathics in my mind. If we do, we are not far from the people who let the Holocaust happen.

        Can we please not use math to argue who is allowed to murder how many innocents on either side? There is no “but” here, every innocent life taken in this conflict is one too much, on both sides. This conflict has evil, different brand of evil, and innocents caught in the middle between.

        Well that’s assuming you’re taking Hamas’ numbers at face value, the same group that claimed a misfired rocket that couldn’t have killed more than ten people killed “500.”

        So yeah, if you’re just dumb enough to believe a terrorist group has that accurate of census data, that’s on you.
