        492 dead total and 35 dead children means 6% of the dead are children. If targets were selected randomly, the numbers would be far higher.

          I mean if the targets were selected randomly at like a grocery store during school hours you might have a similar, possibly better ratio of adults to kids. “low children” does not necessarily mean “high militant”

              office buildings, gyms, etc also have a fairly high adult to child ratio.

              35 children suggests they may be hitting some residential housing.

                Yes, they probably attacked some residential housing where top military commanders were successfully targeted.

                  In what world is it acceptable military doctrine to kill the entire family of enemy combatants? If that was the case with Israeli soldiers you’d be able to extrapolate a justifiable strike to include almost the entire population as almost all citizens have done military service. Take a minute to actually soak in what you just said.

                    If Hamas kills Israeli adult civilians who must compulsively do military service but aren’t active duty, it’s the worst possible crime. But if you’re the second cousin of someone suspected of knowing a militant you deserve sudden death. It’s really simple
