I do see, I see Hamas deliberately placing civilians in harms way. I see Hamas breaking international law in the most egregious manner by using hospitals and civilians centers as command posts and weapons caches. I see Hamas committing war crimes by deliberately targeting civilians in Israel. I see Hamas wanting to ethnically cleanse the land of Jews. I see Hamas not caring for the lives of Palestinians. I see Palestinians supporting Hamas and their tactics in percentages over 50%.

I see the IDF warning civilians to flee the war zone, I see the IDF striking military targets, despite their label, because Hamas made them military targets.

I see moral cowards refuse to call on Hamas to cease their terrorism, cease their kidnappings, release hostages, quite targeting civilians, cease violence, surrender, and seek peace with Israel. While these same moral cowards expect Israel to bend the knee. Why should Israel care more for Palestinian lives than Hamas?

That is what I see. Because I’m not pretending away the inconvenient truth. I’m not fitting the situation to my world view.

What do you see?
