My opinion about yesterday’s assassination as a political tool is that using F-16s to kill 100 Palestinians was unjustifiable.

The Lancet now puts the death toll in Gaza at about 10% of the population.

And Gaza having the most children amputees in the world in nine months is depraved.

@Migueldeicaza Not just Palestinians but unarmed civilians, using the air force to kill a colateral of 90 unarmed civilians, that is quite heroic considering that they can't even verify the death of the 2 terrorists they were targeting

@johnmastodon @Migueldeicaza the reason they "don't know" is that there was no intent to know.

The sickening attitude of Israel's military is that if they drop a 2000lb bomb in a crowded area, kill everyone around, and the Hamas militants survive, all the better! They think this will turn people against Hamas, ignoring that the people don't want Hamas anyway.

It's the same attitude Da'esh, or AQ, or whatever, have about bombing marketplaces. It doesn't work, ever, though
