Do think that's an acceptable behaviour?
Please. Just stop with the straw men. No one thinks taking hostages is acceptable behavior.
The people on this forum condemning Israel obviously thinks taking hostages is OK. You can't have it both ways
Your conclusion is illogical. Bombing civilians has nothing whatsover to do with hostage taking,.
Yes it can. It is called cause and effect.
Taking a hostage does not cause bombing.
Lol. Let's have a moment of silence to all the convicted rapists who, for no reason, are in jail now. Such a senseless waste of human life!
Yet another example of an irrational response. The taking of a hostage does not cause the effect of bombing just like a rape does not cause the effect of the incarceration of the rapist. In each situation, there are intermediate steps involving choice and action.
Here's the Hammas play-book
1) Hammas attacks into Israel and takes a bunch of hostages
2) They retreat into Gaza and hide the hostages among the Palestinian civilians.
3) Israel attacks and Hammas embeds the hostages among the Palestinian refugees
4) They attack the IDF and shoot rockets while embedded in Palestinian refugees. Hammas fighters are dressed like Palestinian civilians.
It's Hammas that are continuously painting targets on Palestinian civilians. Yes, Palestinian civilians are getting bombed. Because Hammas is trying to make Palestinian civilians to get hurt. To sway public opinion.
If Israel wants the hostages back and refuse to negotiate for their release, which is the only morally correct thing to do, they are doing what they need to do. The blood of the civilians is on Hammas. Both the Israeli and Palestinian civilians
