As of right now there are likely hundreds or thousands of Palestinians trapped under the rubble of their houses slowly suffocating or dying of dehydration. A process that takes days or weeks.

Nobody said that about the Germans during WW2, so I guess the disagreement is how bad the Hamas guys are.

And also we can't let them prove themselves to be as bad as the Nazis (if we start comparing numbers), it's about preventing it.

That the Allies shouldn't attack Germany because there would be too many civilian casualties. Same with Japan.

Hmm. I believe some people did, and specifically the incident that most comes to mind as analogous to what’s happening in Gaza is the bombing of Dresden and that of Hiroshima, which many many people said should not have been done.

Oh no. The lesson from the Second World War was that it must not repeated. It is not supposed to be used as a justification for committing war crimes against civilians.
