Turning this on its head and suppose Israel’s response to the Atrocity was to do nothing? That would have been the only way to avoid what’s happening. So no response was a non-starter.
Now move forward: to eliminate Hamas, what should Israel have done?
It really is pointless bleating on about the civilian deaths other than the fact of how sad it is.

The questions are only impossible for you, and a select few, to answer it seems. Others are quite happy to confirm that killing 1000's of civilians and turning their communities to rubble pursuit of Hamas is wrong, on many levels.
I, and others, have said a number of alternate approaches that could have been taken but to be fair, you don't seem to want that discussion. Any ideas would be shot down without any serious attempt to engage, leaving just the current approach that is very "sad".

You seem to be say everything, yet know nothing. Living in the real world, I know what any military action even those carefully planned & executed, especially in this part of the world, will result in some casualties. Only a child would not understand this.
However sanctioning, as you do, the slaughter of tens of thousands of civilians is a world a way from this.
