As someone who with a heavy heart has understood Israel's need to act, this is indefensible, as mentioned above the UN gave the IDF satellite co-ordinates to both of these schools.
The IDF were well aware both of these schools were being used by civilians as a "safe place", the response of course was "we took fire from there", given that that is true, small arms fire, what sort of army fires tank rounds into a building that is known to contain woman and children?
This doesn't excuse any coward from Hamas, what sort of "man" uses a building containing woman and children to fire on an enemy whom he "knows" will fire back?
Like conflicts from the year dot, the longer the fighting goes on the more each side loses its humanity.
