Better question - why do IDF soldiers wander around civilian areas of Israel? They’re valid military targets, yet they don’t isolate themselves 24/7 thereby putting Israelis in danger. Why do IDF reservists, also valid targets, go home to their families and keep their own guns in their homes? By your logic, those the homes of their families are now valid targets.

Have you yourself EVER in your life spoken to a SINGLE Palestinian from Gaza? Have they themselves told you about them or anyone they know being used as human shields? I’m gonna go out on a crazy limb and assume no, you haven’t. I have.

Gaza is one of the most densely populated places on earth. There is no land that is not in use, and most houses home multiple entire families. There is no place to run, no place to hide, no bomb shelters, no international defense, no so one to save them.

Meanwhile, Israel has the Iron Dome, bomb shelters, and one of the most sophisticated armies in the world. They are backed by the most powerful countries on the planet. They are funded by the billions.

Nowhere did I say I “support” Hamas. I support all forms of Palestinian resistance, be they from organizations I absolutely despise or organizations I love. THAT is decolonization. You don’t pick and choose which fighters are good uwu vs which ones are to be condemned.

Hamas is nothing more than a response to decades of Israeli barbarity. Israel loves to blame Hamas for all civilians killed, when by that same logic, given that Hamas is the result of Israeli actions in the first place, Israel would STILL be responsible for all those killed.

If someone decided to hide a rocket launcher in an apartment building in the middle of New York, by your genocidal logic, I suppose it’s okay for that building to be blown up regardless of any civilian deaths.

People like you always want to look to the reaction, and never the source of said reaction. You never want to consider “Hmmm, now why does Hamas actually exist?” your narrative STARTS at Hamas actions.

Lastly, what was the excuse prior to Hamas? Israel still engaged in the wholesale slaughter of Palestinians prior to Hamas. What was the excuse then?

One doesn’t have to “support” Hamas to see this for what it is - Israeli barbarity and ethnic cleansing in action. Hamas is their convenient scapegoat. 

Oh and btw, kindly go fuck yourself :)
