Given most people aren't reading the article, the particularly relevant points:
TL;DR: If Hamas is conducting military operations from hospitals, they can be legitimate targets in the eyes of international law, but precautions still need to be taken to avoid civilian casualties and the case for their military use should be overwhelming, not amorphous or tenuous.
So just shouting, "They're coming right for us!" Isn't enough?
I'm shocked.
