I never said it’s ok that soldiers did it, of course it’s not. Where exactly did I say that? What a fantastic reader you are!
I’m following along with your flawed logic. If your definition of genocide means that there are some soldiers that sniped at children, then that means that all other wars that have had instances of this, means it’s genocide too. You keep going on about killing women and children and it being genocide, but this happens in all wars. So are all conflicts genocide? I’ve pointed out that the ratio of civilians killed in this war is less than other wars, and even more so when you consider urban warfare.
And to answer your question:
Do you find the deliberate killing of Palestinian civilians by Israel to be acts of terrorism just as everyone in this thread is in agreement that the deliberate killing of an Israeli civilians by Hamas is?
No, because I don’t equate the IDF and Hamas as similar when it comes to “deliberate” intent. I don’t think there is any disagreement here that Hamas set out to deliberately murder civilians and enact terrorism on 10/7. I vehemently do not believe that Israel and the IDF are deliberately setting out to murder civilians. Their tactics can be highly scrutinized, sure, but the primary intent of the IDF is to kill Hamas terrorists, not civilians. And again, we’re talking about an area that’s a literal terror maze. If they wanted to kill civilians deliberately as their main purpose in Gaza, then the death count would be exponentially higher than it is now, considering the density and population there.
