    No, my argument is that if Hamas actually cared about “their people”, they wouldn’t have started a war against a much stronger enemy who has proven to have very little care for causing civilian loss.

    I’m not justifying Israel’s actions

      You are putting the responsibility for those murders entirely on Hamas rather than the government currently perpetrating them, thus justifying that government’s actions. You could have just as easily made your opening comment, “Man, if only Israel cared about international law.” Please stop insulting my intelligence.

          Taken a step back and considered how they got where they did, and determine what steps could be taken for a long term peace. Well, I guess they did that but decided their path to peace involved killing every last Palestinian, a final solution if you will.
