To add to this, if the Israel military is so fucking bad that they keep unintentionally killing Civilians, maybe we should stop giving them equipment money and bombs until with think they are trained enough to use them without having an oopsie and murdering a bunch of innocent people.

Of course, that won't happen, because the murdering of civilians is a feature not a bug.

All right buddy, you go launch an offensive against an enemy that is launching rockets from apartment buildings and schools and actively uses civilians as shields because they know it loses you support if those civilians die, and they just consider them martyrs who get rewarded in the afterlife. You have to stop all the attacks against your own populace and have a duty to protect your soldiers, but you're not allowed to hurt civilians when you raid or bomb the enemy's bases in the same buildings that civilians are using.

I'm fully aware that Israeli soldiers have done awful things to civilians, but the sheer stupidity of the whole "Israel needs to stop killing civilians with their bombs" ideology is mindnumbing. Israel is the side using shaped munitions designed to minimize collateral damage, not the rockets designed to kill as many people as possible. Israel is the side that announces their movements to try to get people to evacuate. People seem to be willing to believe literally every negative thing Hamas publishes about Israel's actions without questioning it, which seems absolutely insane to me, since this is a group that very publicly states their intent to murder and posts videos of themselves beheading civilians, and then when video evidence is released that shows that Israel did what they said they did all along, it gets ignored.
