@mott-the-hoople saidSo it's an "accident" that mass bombing of civilian areas with a high population density is killing non-combatants?
not intentionally...you overlook that fact
iran is INTENTIONALLY targeting children
You're stupid, but not that stupid.
@mott-the-hoople saidIt is intentional on both sides. War sucks.

@no1marauder saidIsrael warned anyone in gaza of what was coming...you are a complete waste of human life to support these terrorists

@no1marauder
The US sending an aircraft carrier there just shows that Israel is a puppet state of the USA.
@mott-the-hoople saidSo warning that you will kill civilians absolves you of their murder?
Israel warned anyone in gaza of what was coming...you are a complete waste of human life to support these terrorists
Atrocities committed by either or both sides should be condemned.
@no1marauder saidthey had a chance to leave...that is a hell of a lot more than what your muslim terrorists did

@mott-the-hoople saidA) You could say the same thing about Israelis living near Gaza EXCEPT;
they had a chance to leave...that is a hell of a lot more than what your muslim terrorists did
B) No one is allowed to leave Gaza without Israeli permission.:
"Hamas's capture of Gaza led to an Israeli air, sea and land blockade, and conditions in the territory have worsened for years, with Israel's critics referring to it as an "open-air prison." Most people rely on humanitarian aid and are unable to travel without Israeli permission."

No, threatening to kill civilians first doesn't mitigate when you actually do it.
@mott-the-hoople saidNobody is INTENTIONALLY targeting young children. Children are not a threat to anybody.

Israel is however knowingly bombing civilians and they know children are among those civilians. Killing children is never good for PR. If they could build a magic bomb that spared children I am sure they would use it. Nobody wants to be called a baby killer.
@no1marauder saidDid Hamas warn they were going to attack so that people had a chance to evacuate children?

@no1marauder saidDoes Israel control the Egypt/Gaza border?
B) No one is allowed to leave Gaza without Israeli permission.:
@metal-brain saidThe discussion first used the word "deliberate" which is different from "intentional". As in:

"Deliberate is an adjective that describes an action or decision that is done consciously and with careful consideration. It implies that the individual has taken the time to think about the consequences of their actions or decisions before taking any steps. "
https://thecontentauthority.com/blog/deliberate-vs-intentional
Israel has made the decision to target civilian areas deliberately, knowing this act will cause the deaths of children. Not being able to read their minds, I don't know if this is "intentional" i.e. an action or decision that is done with the specific purpose of killing children.
@no1marauder saidthey should have left when they could

@wajoma saidThey do now:
Does Israel control the Egypt/Gaza border?
"Israeli planes bombed the Rafah border crossing between Gaza and Egypt on Tuesday, even as an Israeli military spokesman encouraged Palestinians to use the border post to flee to safety.
Independent Egyptian news outlet Mada Masr, citing an employee at the border checkpoint, reported that Egypt had closed the crossing gate after a warning that Israel would bomb it. "
"Earlier on Tuesday, Lieutenant-Colonel Richard Hecht, an Israeli military spokesman, suggested that Palestinians seeking refuge from the bombing could "get out" of Gaza through the Rafah crossing.
Hecht’s office later issued a statement: "Clarification: The Rafah crossing was open yesterday, but now it is closed.""

In any event, for the reasons I already provided and others, Egypt was never likely to allow a mass exodus of Palestinian refugees which Israel is perfectly aware of.
