Gaza is not Hamas and Hamas is not Gaza. Those children are innocent and they’re nearly half the population, as the post says. When you put a huge number of innocent people under siege, and kill more of them than were killed on your side, you’re escalating.
I’m not sure how that justifies what is going on in Gaza. The claim was that Hamas and Gaza were interchangeable (thus justifying Israeli atrocities) because Gazans voted for Hamas in 2006. When almost half the population were, at best, toddlers in 2006.
Hamas are the defacto leader of Gaza, voted for in 2006. You can make all sorts of arguments about what’s happened after that, but if the people of Gaza have made no attempt to remove them from leadership since then this is the outcome.
Sure, let’s blame the civilian Palestinian deaths on the Israelis that voted this current gov’t into power…
One would think not escalating situations might be better for their own safety…

How many of those children voted for Hamas in 2006? Exactly how many?
