in gaza, there have been upwards of 20,000 deaths . many of those killed have been hamas terrorists. the bombing is not simply indiscriminate. it targets areas of hamas rocket sites and bases of operation, as well as the network of tunnels whose sole purpose is to support terrorist activity. it tragically kills and wounds civilians purposely put in harm’s way. if a person’s house is used to launch rockets, why should they expect to not have their house targeted? as in all wars, there is also unintended collateral damage despite best efforts to limit it.

terrorist leaders prosper by keeping their people in poverty and misery to blame an external enemy. the acceptance of israel as a scapegoat is likely why the majority of gazans are reported to support hamas , despite the harm the group has done to palestinians. hamas’s leaders live in opulent luxury, while their siphoning-off of aid leaves their supporters in dire poverty.
