Can you please reread what you just said? You're saying it's okay to kill children and innocent people in order to kill someone else you actually want to kill?

    Hamas isn't forcing Israel to commit war crimes.

    Could you cite that law for me? Because last I checked there is no such law forcing Isreal to shoot back, school or otherwise.

    Intentionally bombing civilians is a war crime. I don't care how many of your "intended targets" you think you're getting. If you are bombing civilian centers, like, oh let's say a hospital for instance, then you are a war criminal, Full stop. There is nothing forcing Isreal to do that.
