> The enemy does not include children, but hamas cannot use them as a shield to protect or even deflect attention from their own fighters. Again it's awful but not criminal.

When the Allies bombed Dresden, that was a war crime. When Israel kills children because it's operationally easier than figuring out how to just kill combatants, that is also a war crime.

Like, they appear to be able to do targeted attacks on Hamas people basically everywhere except Gaza, which seems pretty weird.
