Yes, that's how it works. It's like how sometimes during road construction, the construction crew might route you into a different traffic lane. Doesn't mean that lane will remain safe to drive on forever.

That’s a bad analogy. The construction crew direct you to a safe place while they repair the rest of the road. There’s nothing being repaired in Gaza. It’s just being systematically destroyed.

Repairing Gaza by removing the terrorists hiding there.

Problem: Bibi sees all Palestinians as terrorists and potential terrorists.

Or claims to. I am not sure that he's a true believer so much as an authoritarian who wants to hold onto power and escape justice by pulling the hatred/religious extremism lever that helped him get where he is (he literally marched calling for Rabin's death prior to the assassination).

Riiiight ... removing terrorists like all those children in a playground the IDF bombed with precision bombs the other day.

Your "argument" is just a variant of the good old "All Palestinians are Terrorists" hasbara propaganda slogan.

So nobody there are terrorists? They're all innocent civilians that some of which just happen to have rockets.

Only a Nazi-level extreme racist would think that "there are terrorists in Gaza" excuses bombing a specific playground full of children.

Normal human beings don't mix the racist idea of guilt by association with such a cold calous disregard for the lives of children.

You're right, that's mostly reserved for how Hamas behaves.
