When you call Palestine "Hamas" like this, it becomes obvious what you're doing ideologically. Come on.
>your position is that it's Israel's responsibility to protect and value
What a way to frame "please stop bombing hospitals and churches"
>you are treating Hamas as a dependent state that needs legal guardianship
I am not treating Hamas as a state of any kind, I'm treating them as a hostile political party that currently holds power in a country that has been dealing with a literal genocide for decades.
>A real state would not militarize hospitals and churches
I guess Israel isn't a real state then, giving how they use hospitals and churches as military targets...
>or if it did, it would accept the consequences for having done so.
Oh yeah? Those hospitals were really asking for it by "letting" Hamas operate? That's callous.
> What a way to frame "please stop bombing hospitals and churches"
Hospitals and churches that are militarized. I don't think you are interested in understanding or fairly representing what I'm actually saying, so I'm not interested in discussing this further with you.

That was unintentional actually. I was trying to edit for clarity and conciseness, but this is not what I meant. I changed it to "Gaza's".
The IDF's claims as to the extent to which its targets are "militarized" are of course widely disputed (by journalists, government bodies, NGOs, etc). The raids on Al-Shifa, the bombings of mosques and the destruction of cemeteries most notably.
In this context -- it seems clear enough that the commenter above understands what you're saying, and is not making any distortions of it. They simply do not see any reason accept, at face value, the IDF's attempts to spin and obfuscate these horrific incidents. As seems to be the IDF's expectation from the world at large.
