Hamas has made not attempt to not hide behind civilian meat shields, which is never OK.

As ye sow, so shall ye reap. Hamas can end this at any time by surrendering. I suspect that if they released the remaining hostages, it would greatly reduce the fury with which Israel is pursuing it. Unless, of course, those hostages have been tortured, raped, and murdered while they were held.

So far as I can tell, any civilians being killed in Gaza are, indeed, war crimes - committed by Hamas hiding behind them. IDF may well be doing some bad things, too, but the war crimes responsibility is entirely with Hamas. They hide behind civilians because it's a war crime, and they know that gullible fools - or collaborators - like you will ignore it, and try to get everyone to focus on Israel's actions - which are specifically allowed by those same treaties.

Don't want your civilians killed? Don't use them as meat shields.

If you want to talk about war crimes, let's start with the first war crimes: building military command bunkers under hospitals, clearly defined as a war crime by various treaties. Those same treaties also specifically allow Israel to attack those hospitals because Hamas has chosen to make them hard military targets.

But you don't, and won't - ever - talk about that, will you?
