So they kill more than 4000 children? Would they have done the same if the kidnappers were anywhere else in the world? What makes killing over 10,000 civilians a fair trade?
The purpose of this war on Gaza is ethnic cleansing.
It doesn't make it a fair trade. My point is they have no idea who they are targeting, or they would have been doing targeted take downs before the conflict.
Collective punishment is a war crime. Having a 90% death rate being civilians is a war crime. Targeting hospitals, schools, water wells, aid trucks and bakeries is a war crime.
They said so themselves. The intent is ethnic cleansing. They have said as much that the goal is to depopulate the Gaza Strip. They have called Palestinians “human animals”.

That is one of the laziest info graphs I've ever seen. All of this is terrible, bit please redo it for the first few months of each conflict. This graph was made to show the US as saviors.
It's almost like an occupied populace is in itself an inbuilt insurgency for the obvious reasons.
Oddly enough a lesson not learned from WW2.
Oh the lesson was learned. It's just being used to kill the oppressed population.
It was in Paris as well, time makes martyrs of oppressed children.
Agreed. Not really the point of the discussion, and also patronizing, but I wish you a good day.
How exactly was it patronizing?
