Is Isreal simply protecting themselves

Israel is targeting the people of Gaza, apartment buildings, the media. The death count is 20 to 1. If you were punched in the face would it be fair to kill 5 people. Are the Palestinians caught in the middle of Hamas and Israel.

I know an ex Israeli soldier who told me a few things about what’s going on in there(and he hated the whole thing,so it’s not really a biased situation). That’s why i side with Israel
@SW-User Israel is wiping out civilians that have nothing to do with Hamas. Israel is protected by the Iron Dome has one of the best militarys in the world and then is protected by the US. 20 to 1 is extreme overkill.
SW-User
@Pitchblue yes but at the same time Hamas strategically place their strongholds into civilian areas exactly for that reason. He told me about Hamas soldiers crouching amongst children on rooftops shooting at them and stuff.
@SW-User Again the people are caught in the middle.
SW-User
@Pitchblue yes but im not going to support a side who uses their own children as shields. Those kids are hostages
SW-User
@SW-User Israel doesn’t seem to give a fuck about killing children. I very much doubt anyone would think they would make an effective shield.
SW-User
@SW-User soldiers are people too. They didn’t sign up to shoot kids
SW-User
@SW-User I don’t think they sign up at all, they are drafted. Right, because soldiers never murder civilians including children. Get fucking real, dude.
@SW-User One side has the Iron Dome the other has civilians to protect them. BUT the Israelis don't give a fuck about Palestinian civilians.
SW-User
@Pitchblue truth
SW-User
@SW-User especially when the targets are purposely surround themselves with them. What do you do? Throw your gun away and walk out in the open for him?
SW-User
@SW-User So you’re justifying murdering children now? The fuck is wrong with you?
SW-User
@SW-User I don’t but it’s happening because of Hamas. Not because of Israel
@SW-User Why do you think this last conflict started?
SW-User
@SW-User Why do you make me beat you?

@SW-User Like there's literally nobody I would trust less for an accurate description of their enemy than a soldier.
SW-User
@CountScrofula I don’t think there is any reasoning with him.
SW-User
@SW-User im done with this. Im not supporting Hamas. Israel still supplies Palestine with energy. Wait til that’s cut off
SW-User
@SW-User Do you hear yourself right now? You sound excited. You are literally demented.
SW-User
@SW-User im just saying if Israel’goal was to destroy citizens lives,they can just cut the energy supply. These are times of war after all right?
SW-User
@SW-User ???
@SW-User 98% of Palestinian doesn't have clean water. I call that cutting the power off.
