The fact you accuse me of rhetoric for mentioning a field hospital is baffling. That's not rhetoric, that's statement of a fact. Israel is spending millions of dollars on the health care of wounded Palestinians. They are treating them in their own hospitals and have set up temporary hospitals within Gaza.
I also don't get where these accusations that I am "internalizing" the conflict are coming from. From what I can tell, my posts seem to be quite logical, as opposed to emotional. Sorry I'm bringing up facts that don't fit into your wild accusations.
I'm really not sure what your point is...unless I admit that Israel is committing genocide (which is nowhere close to the truth), I'm not acknowledging the suffering of the Palestinians?

This conflict is very black and white. Once Hamas stops firing rockets, Israel will cease their ground incursion. We all sympathize with the civilian casualties but Hamas is responsible for this, not Isreal.
This conflict would be the equivalent of Harper having our armed forces firing rockets at the US and complaining about civilian casualties when the US fires back.
