I'm also old and have been following this conflict for decades but apparently more balanced sources.

Israel claimed that they were targeting Hamas at Al-Shifa but they positioned snipers who shot doctors and nurses through the windows. If you're being forced to attack a hospital full of innocent civilians then you would be trying to avoid the innocent civilians, but that's not what it's about here.

Same as taking swathes of land since WW2, they are occupying massive areas that they were never given. They're not ignorant, they know exactly what they're doing.
