Of course im justifying their use of child soldiers. What im wondering is how YOU identify a soldier of Hamas vs a citizen of Palestine defending their home from a military invasion. Because last i checked there are no uniform factories in palestine
You identify them through their chain of command. If they are getting weapons and/or instructions from Hamas, they're a soldier.
Do you honestly believe there is an army on this earth capable of tracking the chain of command for every enemy they encounter?
No, I believe that if you have a terrorist hiding in a home with 5 civilians who aren't giving them up or stopping them, you have 6 terrorists. I believe that if some of those are children, then their parents have failed them. They don't deserve to die, but they also don't have a right to complain about getting bombed at that point. Choices were made, and actions have consequences.
If the children's parents were murdered, is it the child's fault or the parents fault? If the murderers are then going around murdering every relative, teacher, doctor and neighbor of the child is it the child's fault still?
Children have no responsibilities for their actions, it's always the parents responsibility until they reach at least their teenage years and often even beyond that based on how the parents have raised them.
