Of course... examples of Palestinians being murdered, Israeli hostages killed and/or released. Those are valid 'one off incidents' to provide examples for larger events.
Otherwise we'd just have a counter of humans killed or kidnapped.
'Valid criticism'... what a wild way to presumably comment on a government that has gone on a human being killing spree.

I was referring to incidents like the initial "bombing" of the Al Shifa hospital. It was clearly a misfired Palestinian rocket that landed in the parking lot. Yet, so many on here took Hamas at their word that Israel had bombed the hospital and killed hundreds. Then these incidents are used to characterize the whole campaign, which is not correct.
I've stated several times I disagree with Netanyahu's approach. I also think that Hamas creates Netanyahu, as much as the other way around. Hamas and other organizations make the Israeli public feel like they need a war orientated leader. They aren't voting in a dove when they see Hamas on the other end of the table.
