Kestra, that is petty semantics, why did you even bother?

But more to the point - even though Hezbollah and Hamas (and any other terrorist organization out there) are illegal combatants, I still make a clear distinguish between killing/abducting soldiers and killing/abducting innocent people (especially children). But you see, those organizations usually don't care much if they kill a soldier or a child.

On the other hand, take some western army - everything it does is meant to battle the combatants and not the general population. Sure, sometimes innocent people get hurt in battle, but can you REALLY say the intention is the same here? If you do then I think you have a serious problem with grasping the battleground as it is now, and moreso, you have no idea how an army works.
