Your comments about how 'easy' it is for civilians to leave these areas seem to be aimed at placing the blame on the civilians for not having left the area, while absolving Israel of guilt. Even if you believe that Israel is in the right for bombing Gaza it makes no sense to try and deny that innocent civilians are caught in the cross-fire. Their blood is on Israel's hands just as much as the blood of innocent Israelis is on the hands of Hamas.

The comments about how easy it is to avoid targets are in response to those making farcical claims about the density population of the Gaza Strip, and suggesting it is impossible for civilians to escape the conflict.

Israel are engaged in a legitimate military operation, exclusively targeting legitimate military targets.

If you deliberately put yourself in harm's way, then I'm sorry, but you are partially responsible for the harm that comes to you.
