It sounds like your logic goes as follows: If a Palestinian kid is exposed to material such as hate speech or comes into contact with a member of Hamas, an appropriate punishment for that kid is getting blown to smithereens by a bomb.

Peter responds: No, my logic is, if these people (kids, families, etc) don’t want to get blown to smithereens by a bomb, then they not participate in terrorist activity against a sovereign nation. Simple as that. If the terrorists are launching weapons around you, you either stop them or move away.

(And don’t give me the old, ‘But these innocent civilians are trapped in Gaza by the evil Israelis!’ schtick, because it AIN’T true. Most of the injured in this conflict are being treated in Israeli hospitals. Non-combatants are NOT being prevented from leaving.)
