What Israel is doing isn't a war, it's a genocide. They aren't targeting militants, they're targeting civilians.

Even Hamas (the eeeevillll terrorists) have done more to minimize civilian casualties, something like 80% of the people they've killed were confirmed to be soldiers, the other 20% unconfirmed but fairly likely to have been combatants as well, or at a maximum accidental crossfire.

"But Israel said-" You don't think they miiight have been projecting a little when they said Hamas was out for civilian blood...?

Really? The 1500 people that Hamas killed in the attack were 80% soldiers? Or is that stat over the last few decades of conflict?
