    Notably, Hamas on Oct 7 killed two civilians for every military casualty. By the IDF’s own numbers, the IDF are literally greater terrorists than Hamas. Hamas literally does a better job at avoiding civilian casualties than the IDF does.

      If you qualify military targets the way the IDF does then Hamas killed over 90% military targets on october 7.

        And we’ll likely never know how many civilians/soldiers were killed by Israel issuing the Hannibal Directive on October 7th. Something we do know they issued that day.

        Yes. Israel has a protocol that says “killing/harming our own people is preferred to them being kidnapped”.
