"It was very reasonable for Israel to carry out an offensive. It wasn't reasonable for Hamas to endanger so many of the people they were obligated to protect."

Which actually means it was very reasonable for Israel to carry out an offensive which was likely to kill and maim over 5-10,000 Arab children and non-combatants.

Of course, if Hamas had been a Jewish terrorist organisation and the Gaza population Jewish, Israel would never have dreamed of causing such civilian suffering. Quite racist when you think about it.
