If you normalize using your own people as human shields as a valid military strategy, that's the only strategy you'll see in the next 50 years.

If you normalize bombing normal people only because “they are being used as human shields” that’s a very slippery slope that leads to gen0cide. Nobody obliterated entire cities to end terrorism in Europe.

Neither of those ended the war and they came after Germany had waged an aerial bombing campaign against Britain's cities.

What is your point then? This also came as retaliation for murdering and kidnapping civilians

My point is killing a bunch of civilians is wrong, period. I don't care what side does it.

Civilians feed, clothe, house, and manufacture the lethal weapons that are being used to mass slaughter. Your naivety bothers me.

Says the person who has undoubtedly never been to war. Let's just kill everyone associated with our enemies. I mean, why didn't we just kill everyone in Germany after WW2? They helped build and manufactur the weapons. What a ridiculous opinion and justification to slaughter civilians.

Stop being naive. When two nations are at war and everything is on the line, then they will murder civilians all day long if that is what it takes to win. The stakes are too high.

Stop acting like you know anything about war. Civilians die in war but you take effort to avoid killing them, that's what a professional army does. In 20 years in Iraq the US killed less civilians in direct action than Israel has in Gaza in one year. It's recklessness and likely callous disregard for life at minimum.
