"for the first part I'd say it's 50:50 of who placed them there" totally agree. That's exactly why I left them out of the equation.
"that they were being held ear Hospitals" but that's exactly the point, isn't it? If there were hostages there, then that's undeniable proof that there were Hamas terrorists there. No matter, why they were kept there, this remains an undeniable consequence.
All that aside, I too hate all of the bloodshed that is happening to the people of Palestine. Even though, I also understand why Israel was forced to do what they are doing now. No matter, who did what in the past, there simply is no conceivable timeline in which the events of the past weeks would have played out any differently and I bet that's exactly what Hamas was counting on. They need the people to hate Israel so they can keep their power and they don't care how many Israelis and Palestinians get killed in the process.
