> And since when does Israel avoids civilians?

Always? They have been very clear about trying to avoid civilian casualties. Saying they are not always successful doesn't prove anything when you are fighting an entrenched enemy that is using human shields.

Around the guard towers and military outposts surrounding Gaza, Israel had villages and concert venues - Israel's human shields.
Rofl are you serious? Human shield is something like launching rockets from a playground, the roof of an apartment building, a mosque etc. Having a village a mile *behind* the border wall is not a human shield.
They just have their state sanctioned and militarily protected settlers do it for them. Totally not government sanctioned.
