> One side is trying to minimise civilian causalities Israel has been ethnically cleansing the Palestinians since 1948. They most definitely are not minimizing civilian casualties. They're maximizing them within the parameters that their US backing will allow. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nakba

That's completely incorrect. Every war has been the result of Israel invading Palestine in 1948 and ethnically cleansing the land. There's a reason Right of Return is the big issue here. Nakba is where the conversation about Israel's aggression needs to start: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nakba

Nakba was an ethnic cleansing:

There is no corroboration of your statement in that article. You can read about the history in the link I posted.

There's this video from a woman reporter in Gaza taking a video, and casually a rocket flies out from behind her. Either from her building directly, and if not the launch site must have been very close by. She turns around, say "oh that happens all the time", and goes on, as if nothing happened. I can't find the video of the Palestinian reporter actually laughing it off, but there's these videos: https://www.youtube.…

In general a very good comment. But: > Obviously if this happens, you leave the area and don't come back. And if you don't leave, you don't complain about a rocket coming back. I suspect that for the average Gaza resident, there aren't many places they can go that aren't right next to somewhere that rockets come from.

More realistically: Hamas is actually trying to kill Palestinians, forcing people to stay under Israeli bombs, shooting them if they don't.

It's not really a shortage of space.

And yes, that would mean Israel is the biggest ally of Gazan civilians, despite the obvious.
