This is a shit-tier excuse for bombing schools, regardless.

Yeah their take seems to ignore the fact that thereā€™s other options than just drop a bomb on the school

Genuine question - What would the realistic solution be?

Iā€™m by no means absolving Israel. The voices of their government alone show that they donā€™t even try to prevent civilian casualties. But of the top of my head I donā€™t exactly see a solution. For example putting a foot on the ground would provoke their neighbors. They canā€™t just ignore Hamas either.

Israel funded Hamas and their policies basically created them. Theyā€™re an easier target for westernes than the secular PLO. Maybe the solution is ending apartheid and the illegal occupation? Maybe, and I know this is really crazy but, bombing the shit out of a group of people isnā€™t going to lead to less retaliation?

ā€œputting a foot on the groundā€

You mean a ground invasion? Which theyā€™ve already started. The bombing is just to minimise Israeli casualities.

Mate, theyā€™ve tanks circling Gaza city the ships sailed for provoking neighbours and theyā€™ve already provoked Jordan by bombing ambulances, aid convoys, hospitals and schools.

A one state solution that results in the dissolution of the state of Israel entirely and the creation of a new state where Arabs arenā€™t held as second class citizens, where both groups live under the same laws and are prosecuted in the same Justice system.

ceasefire begin talks with the other Palestinian government that isnt Hamas

You can take the power away from Hamas by taking away palestinian peopleā€™s reason to be angry. But as it stands, Hamas is literally the Gazan government.
