    Gaza is not even close to being the most densely populated area on the planet, what is your source for that?

    Also have you seen a map of gaza? There are many open areas hamas could use to launch attacks from, but it chooses (rather rationally I might add) to site its materiel in places where israeli retaliation will cause civillian casualties.

      I apologize that I forgot to add “one of the” before “most.” The point still stands.

      Oh, you looked at a map of Gaza, and because of that you are an expert on the land and you know the best strategic locations for them to set up? Fuck off.

      Israel made an open-air prison, and when a group of extremists react, they bomb the entire fucking prison (strangely aiming at the hospitals, and the areas where they instructed refugees to go).

      Edit: After re-reading this comment, i’d like to correct something. I don’t think it’s even accurate to say Israel created an open-air prison, or to call Gaza a prison. The word “prison” heavily implies that the people there did something to deserve their punishment. I wonder if anyone could let me know all the terrorist acts those Gazan children performed… Was it “throwing rocks at IDF”? Because that’s usually punishable by death.

      Open areas, you know! Those places everyone can see, who needs operational security when you have all that room for activities!

          Hedging doesn’t change your idiotic point. No one uses open areas because… They’re open fucking areas. It’s like saying “why don’t you go play baseball in that lake over there.”

            Are you removed or just incapable of reading? Do you think I said their decision to not use open areas was rational because I thought it was dumb?

              I read just fine bud, your point is still shit. It doesn’t matter that there are open areas because no one would use them certainly not an insurgency that can’t mass troops. It’s nothing, why bring it up.
