Nobody has ever shown that IDF puts military installations under or in hospitals or schools, as Hamas exclusively does. In fact Hamas slaughtered women and children in places like a music festival and kibbutzim that had zero military connection at all. These are not legitimate targets, making Hamas war criminals. On the contrary, when you put your fighters and your military hardware in a hospital, that becomes a legitimate target, according to the standard rules of engagement used by every military force in the world. Hamas chooses this. They choose it because they believe there is no downside to civilian death and suffering:
1. Martyrdom is supposed to be the top aspiration of their fanatic version of Islam, so they’re doing them a favor getting them killed
2. Everyone who knew the dead becomes more filled with hate for the enemy
3. Every civilian death gains Hamas more support among the gullible Western liberals who have been funding and supporting Hamas for decades.
They want this, they choose this, it’s all in their control and they prefer this. All because of their pure hatred for Jews, which will only be sated by actual genocide.
