    It’s not the IDF’s responsibility to protect Palestinians, it’s HAMAS’, the legally elected government of Palestine… You know, the country which just launched an attack against Israel to which Israel responded with violence and then hamas hid behind civilians in a hospital.

    Can’t have missed it, it’s been all over the news.

      I thought it was the IDF’s responsibility not to kill civilians directly? Does it matter which kind of civilians they are? Or does Israel like to play favorites where one Palestinian is not worth a tenth of an Israeli?

      (and meh to your snarky comment)

        Does that honestly come as a surprise to you? Nations states are inherently selfish, it’s kind of their whole reason for being.
