    Are you suggesting it is okay to kill civilians being used as human shields?

      Are you suggesting that human shields have more value than the people who is being mortally attacked from behind the shields?

        No. That’s exactly the point, you dipshit. They have AS MUCH value. Equal to.

        Value is for spreadsheets.

        Humans have worth. And all humans have equal worth. All things actually.

          I don’t agree with that nice sounding platitude. Terrorists and pedophiles lives don’t have the same worth as a nobel price winner to society.

            That’s a moral judgment. Worth has nothing to do with it.

            All things, by virtue of their existence, have equal worth.

            Wonderful example, considering anybody can be nominated and win a Nobel peace prize, including people guilty of ethnic cleansing.

              somehow I’m not surprised that you can’t even think about science and how it contributes to civilization. you are being intellectually dishonest by claiming that we are all equal and then you pick the worst possible example from the group instead of picking the best representatives of nobel prize winners before comparing them with terrorists.

              but sure I’ll take anyone from the list of nobel prize winners (which in my opinion are usually political) over someone that puts babies in ovens and burns them alive. it’s not really that complicated as you are trying to make it seem, even when you pick a strawman interpretation of my comment.

              EDIT: In a way I’m not surprised that the very people who defend hamas think that rapists and terrorists have the same worth as a nobel prize winner.

            All things being equal, the IDF are bigger and more successful terrorists than Hamas and their response to the October 7 attack was a disproportionate response, despite the IDF also conducting operations in the west bank at the same exact time.

            Justice for Palestine

        I would suggest they are certainly more valuable than the incompetent marksmen who would rather make excuses than aim their fucking guns
