But hey, according to the IDF they're killing 69 Hamas leaders every day too, so it all balances out!

Maybe they're going by body mass? 1 Hamas = the weight of 10 babies, so that's what makes it right! Logic!

If they dont stand behind Hamas they should have been born someplace else!

Some Israeli general is smoking a blunt, rapidly pressing a red button, and shouting "420 blaze those babies!"
