It just needs to be done in a way that doesn't kill tens of thousands of innocent civilians and in a way devastating to infrastructure (as that just makes the eventual rebuild more difficult and painful).
I assume you were upset when Hamas attacked civilians in Israel on October 7? Okay...now, if you are able...imagine if you were a Palestinian: wouldn't you be upset when Israel kills your civilians?
It's just so basic. I think Hamas is terrible for what they did to Israel. I think Israel is terrible for what they're doing to Palestinians.
Israel was the victim of Hamas on October 7.
Palestinians have been the victims of Israel from October 8 - present.
Hamas = bad.
Israeli Government and IDF = bad.
Palestinians Civilians = victims of Israel for the actions of Hamas

This is a respectful post. I agree with all of this. My question is how does a military eradicate Hamas in a way that would please you? Sending commandos into every building is not a realistic military solution. It has never been done that way in world history.
Also, calling Israel “murderers” is extremely insensitive and outright hateful. They don’t want to be doing that and any suggestion that they do is completely insane. Those words do not help us move forward.
So without a massive double standard held against the IDF - what is the right course of action?
I haven’t seen one realistic example proposed by anyone in any stream of media since Oct 7.
