    Nobody implied they’re intentionally targeting children with their bombing.

    They’re indiscriminately bombing all Palestinians. If they were targeting Hamas, and attempting to limit civilian casualties, you’d see a much higher proportion of adult males.

      The post title asks you to look at the “biggest bar,” which seems to imply that the biggest bars - children - must be targeted. OccamsTeapot population graph is important context because, as war-crimey as indiscriminantly bombing civilian populations is, intentionally targeting children feels so much like comic-book villany that people dismiss it as propaganda.
