Former Harvard Law School professor Alan Dershowitz claimed "if you want to kill Hamas," you "have to kill the civilians who are being used as human shields."
It’s actually a lot worse. The IDF has a much, much higher rate of civilians killed for every noncombatant than Hamas does. Hamas is objectively better at avoiding civilian casualties than the IDF is.
Would be interesting to see the statistics, if someone has calculated them. I wonder if reservists count as combatants or noncombatants. Would skew the numbers a lot
Well, the vast vast majority of Hamas fighters are what a regular military would classify as “reservists.” Hamas are mostly part-time fighters who otherwise have regular civilian jobs and live regular civilian lives. (Or at least they did before the Gaza strip was blown to rubble.)
Please give me:
statistics on the bystanders killed by hamas vs. statistics on the bystanders killed by the Israeli occupation forces
Compare them and try to justify your point

the IDF has indiscriminate bombings or attacks. hamas doesnt want to lose public favor from gazans.

Hamas is an irregular force, not sure they have what are traditionally understood as reservists
Oh my bad, I misread your comment and thought you meant they’re better than hamas.
I’m palestinian so I am biased, and I do obviously agree 100%
