I understand that, and indeed every time rules of war are brought up someone would say that it is not a soccer match. Hamas, from its own perspective, would also point out its own reasons to violate the rules of war as it resorts to terrorist tactics and sets goals that are genocidal.

This is precisely why rules of war matter. They especially matter for the survival of Israel, who has not done well in the eye of public opinion lately.

Support is good in this war because most people can see Israel vacated Gaza but have been under rocket and missile attack since then

Muslims get very bored without war. So they lob rockets into Israel

Your precious little rules mean nothing to Hamas, but you still want Israel to fight with one hand tied behind her back to give a level playing field.

That’s just sick.
