They are at war. I feel bad for him and his family. But when you go to war there are going to be casualties.

The IDF will do their job.

Israel is going to pay a terrible price trying to be nice guys. There is nothing nice about war, and only one correct way to fight one: all or nothing. I’d demand the soldier’s return and begin obliterating the city until he is returned. If Hamas wants to use their children as shields, then the blood is on their hands.

We should never purposefully kill women and children. They did not ask for war.

So you condemn Hamas and all the other Islamicists who do just that whenever they can, correct? And you no doubt approve of Israel trying to stop them from doing just that whenever they can to try and wipe out all Jews and Christians and anybody else who does not bow down to them. What about the women Islamacist suicide bombers, aren’t they willing participants in war to kill other women and children? Don’t they not only ask for war but perpetrate it?
