Why are hospitals in Gaza under Israel’s crosshairs? Why? Is it truly that difficult to step back and think for a moment about why Israel would want to erase the current populace entirely?
Amazing, what a mystery
Do you realize that the population of Gaza grows by over 50,000 people every year? Even if we accept the casualty figures provided by Hamas (and I don't) then unless this war goes on at its current intensity for another four months (which it won't) the population of Gaza will actually increase rather than decrease in the one-year period that includes the war.
The idea that the war in Gaza is "[erasing] the current populace entirely" is disconnected from reality.
Sorry, what? Newborn babies can't shoot a gun and can't take care of themselves if their homes are bombed and their parents die. Not to mention that half of Gaza is already under 18 and probably won't be having babies any time soon, given that hospitals are being targeted. What the fuck is wrong with you?
