The reason is you can kill a group of adult males and later claim they were Hamas. This same tactic doesn't work with children (not that it hasn't been tried, "No innocent civilians in Gaza").
Children have always been treated differently because they are fully and absolutely dependent on their care givers.
A puppy and a grown dog don’t actually apply here because we’re talking about humans and not dogs. It’s not even appropriate to make that comparison here.
You anthroprocentric chauvinist. Just because you've firmly categorized everything else as "an inferior being" with a lesser claim to remaining alive doesn't mean that's actually the case.
It just means you're selfishly unconcerned with the consequences of collateral damage up until it might be something that could figure out a way to waltz over and bite back.
You've posted several flamewar comments to this thread already. Would you please stop? It's exactly what we're trying to avoid on this site, and this topic is the worst place to do it.
Actually, I haven’t. I said that the comparison of a human child to a dog is not appropriate. Considering that exact language (e.g. “they are animals”) has helped perpetuate a genocide of Palestinians.
I’m not entirely sure if you’re even disagreeing with me here tbh.
