Do you think the police could open fire in a crowd to hit a terrorist, and later excuse their actions by saying it's the terrorist's fault for running into a crowd in the first place? If a terrorist hid on your block, would you be fine with the military bombing your house into the ground and killing your family to get the bad guy? If their later explanation was just that it was the terrorist's fault for hiding in your house, and they have no responsibility, do you really think that would suffice?
I have some sympathy for Israel, since their current situation has no easy answer. But the fact that it's horrible for a terrorist to use human shields doesn't make it any less horrible to simply dismiss those human shields as collateral damage.

just to remind you that the palestinians voted in a democrticly way the Hamas to rule Gaza- they are not so naive, they are well aware the Hamas is a terror organization wishes to destroy Israel so they must acknowledge the consequences of their actions...
