    Palestine didn’t kill those hostages, Hamas did. Hamas deserves to die, innocents do not, and killing innocents to reach the bad guy is not justified

      I respect the sentiment, but Hamas uses innocent civilians as human shields all the time. Doing what you say would allow them to attack with impunity.

        If you can’t defend yourself without doing war crimes, you’re not defending yourself. You’re just using it as an excuse for war crimes.

            Bombing hospitals, schools, residential buildings, refugee camps, and aid workers are war crimes. Isreal has done all of the above and more.

              so has Hamas. Every single thing that Israel has done, so too has Hamas.

              The only difference is one can be held accountable, while the other isn’t.

                    There is never a valid justification for bombing hospitals, schools, residential buildings, refugee camps, and aid workers. They are war crimes mo matter what. And Isreal has been doing it forever.
