This is it in a nutshell. It is a perfect example of the difficulty the Palestinians have in surviving this war. The Palestinians are the strategy Hamas uses in its persistence to kill Israeli citizens and bring international hatred to destroy Israel’s sovereignty.
The IDF probably with the help of Mossad located two Hamas leaders. The two Hamas leaders were then targeted for death in a missile strike. Unfortunately, there were civilians in the blast area as there always is when killing Hamas members. Why are the civilians within the military target? That should be obvious. Hamas is using Palestinian civilians as human shields.
Now. After the military target is destroyed as Israel is securing itself from Hamas terrorists the Gaza health ministry starts ranting about civilian deaths and never bothers mentioning the presence of Hamas among them.
Of course, there are far wiser military generals in the world as spectators to Israel’s sovereign war estimating the military target should be pursued in a ground war where civilians can be moved safely out of the target area and then Hamas can be captured rather than killed. Right?
Isn’t the right?!?!?!
Well. Good luck with that. There is no more efficient way to wage war against terrorists than the way Israel is doing it.
THE PROBLEM is NOT Israel.
The problem is Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and the rest of the terrorists in Gaza.
