Someone Argues Gaza Civilians Aren't Civilians. Why? What Can One Answer?

Well, the reason is, pretty many of the hostages seem to have been held by Civilians.

The answer is, Hamas took 251 hostages.

251 families is a very small part of the Gazawi population.

One cannot deny that Hamas is popular among that population. But one cannot argue a population that supports evil people (and October 7, hostage keeping, I do not deny they are or were evil) is for that reason not a civilian one./HGL
