Agreed the poor children on both sides must be terrified
Sickeningly, much of the carnage is done in the name of murdered children.

When Thompson and Venables were arrested for James Bulger's murder, a mob attacked the van they were in.

Blake Morrison wrote "The men came, wanting to kill the kids who had killed the kid. Because nothing is worse than killing a kid"

Even mainstream commentators and centrist politicians think that Hamas' atrocities a week ago justify Israel's atrocities now.

But the only logical conclusion to that argument is that Hamas' next atrocities will be justified.

Repeat ad nauseum

Killing of inocent people both sides can't be justified it's horrible
 
Without opening old wounds, I have a mild aversion to her knights in shining armor, so will leave it there.
Taking to twitter to stick her two cents in is probably not the cleverest move, agent driven? personal loss driven? there's so much pain and suffering, it'd probably be best to not add to the furore. The spectacle is feeding the prevailing winds for massacre. More hype (not riley) more explosions, more live to the scene, more deaths, more mourning, and it just keeps spiralling. The sabre rattling from israel about reprisals was the paint they used to get backed into a corner, now the deaths on both sides do not equate and israel look blood thirsty and out of control. They've allowed hamas to show them up and now the world is watching and its only recruiting more soldiers to the cause. It comes to something when 'an eye for an eye' would be grasped instantly to reduce the harms done and de-escalate the thirst for violence.

Hate knows no bounds, and continues to feed itself.
 
This.

Also there is no way Israel can go into Gaza and wipe out Hamas, they are a Gurella organisation, it’s impossible. No one will be in Gaza wearing I’m a member of Hamas T-Shirt, how do you distinguish between a member of Hamas and an innocent bystander - you don’t and can’t, you wipe everyone out - everyone is Hamas.

Conversely the slaughter will lead to a fertile recruitment ground for Hamas for the next generation. If your community is wiped out by Israelis are you more or less likely to join Hamas…….
Pretty much this.

I still don't understand how Israel can think the same response that hasn't worked for 70 years may work this time.

And I still don't understand how Hamas thinks the same tactics which haven't worked for 70 years may work this time.
