    Nice of you to value their citizens’ lives above your own.

    the question wasn’t about your citizens, it was about your kids. which makes his answer even more laughable.

      For purposes of this conversation you can use citizens, civilians, and children interchangeably. All are examples of collateral damage, and many of Hamas’ human shields will fit into multiple categories.

        no, you cannot, read the conversation again.

        most people have closer relationship to their own kids than to some other random co-citizen. so if some clown claims, for a sake of his argument, that he would be willing to sacrifice his own kids to protect… literally anyone else, you know he is a moron, or a liar. or both.

        sure, but that was not the point of my remark.
