Yeah, sometimes. Kids die in a warzones, especially at this unprecedented level where the non-uniformed fighting force of a criminal enterprise masquerading as a government uses entire cities as human shields, those co-lateral deaths are different in kind to trained sharpshooters of a uniformed army wantonly shooting children, directly (and getting away with it). Blame for every kid rests with Gaza’s leadership, who put their own people and families in harms way, even the aid truck. What was October 7 if not an invitation to food aid trucks and their crews to come on out to a warzone, where negligence and war crimes–as well as the how-ever-many years of martial law the Hamas holdouts force upon Gaza during reconstruction and reconstitution–are exactly the sort of foreseeable harm and casualty that make starting or prolonging war so atrocious for humanity in the first place?

And I don’t give Israel one pass on legit war crime just because atrocity is foreseeable, but like c’mon: 4.5 out of your first 5 pieces of evidence for your claim of Israel sniping kids utterly fell apart under a level of scrutiny mundane to basic media literacy. Doesn’t that give you pause to think maybe some of the other views that Qatari state media keep validating for you might be equally misinformed?
