Beside the point that none of what I said has anything to do with Red Cross having inside info on Hamas, if you’re saying Israel doesn’t even know where they are and are still levelling entire areas of the city… that would be indiscriminate bombing.
How do you know Israel isn’t? Because you don’t expect it to happen? The world very obviously does not operate on your expectations, and it’s becoming increasingly clear that nobody in this thread should either.
We know that water, electricity, fuel, and food is cut off because both sides have said it. We know that Israel has been bombing the entry point for aid because both sides have said it. We know that Israel has destroyed hundreds of civilian buildings because both sides have said it. Etc. Etc.
Sorry for not solving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict on this message board. My bad.
I’ve asked it before, so I’ll ask you: if the only way is to accept civilian casualties, how many would you accept if you were in charge? Put a number on it. And do you trust the military to only
And yes, reminding people of international law is part of a solution, because international law also covers using people as human shields and who is ultimately responsible for when those civilians die (it’s the people who used them). But that doesn’t mean you flatten an apartment building, killing 100 because there was a member of Hamas in there.
Perhaps you can use your imagination and figure out what a middle ground between “commit all the war crimes you want” and “lay down your weapons and go home” looks like. I’m sure you can come up with something.
No doubt. Anyone arguing any different?

Wow. I'm not sure why you wasted time on writing that. You're not even replying to same issues.
But again, you obviously have no idea what should be done. And since you're the one demanding that international law has to be held, I was hoping you would be the one with an idea how much it can be bent (like it always is) or can it be broken and how much (which probably happens too). Or if Hamas can't be eradicated without breaking international law, then what? I don't know what the solution is so I'm very hesitant to make absolute claims about anything.
