We have a radical jihadist terror organization [on] our border that\u2019s telling us it\u2019s going to continue trying to murder as many Jews as possible. Obviously, we have to get rid of it. We have no choice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow, talking about civilians, if Hamas is granted immunity because it hides behind civilians, that\u2019s not only a problem with Hamas,\u201d he continued. \u201cThat means that the whole global jihad organizations are all going to adopt human shields as the core way of conducting terror. So this would be a profound mistake. And we think that we have really no choice, and we got to do what we got to do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bennett also called out Biden for claiming that Israel was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/netanyahu-responds-to-bidens-betrayal-of-israel-if-we-have-to-stand-alone-we-will-stand-alone\/\" title=\"Netanyahu's Reaction to Biden's Actions: \"We'll Stand Alone if We Must.\">targeting civilian population centers<\/a> while not mentioning that the country goes to great lengths to warn civilians that they need to leave and that Hamas hides behind civilians.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn all wars, all wars, in every urban war in the history of the world, there\u2019s collateral damage, especially when Hamas is using the civilians as a human shield. There\u2019s no doubt,\u201d he said. \u201cBut is Israel using bombs to target civilians? Absolutely not. Never. We never target civilians. In fact, we have the lowest ratio of collateral damage in the history of urban warfare. There\u2019s about, let\u2019s call it, 32,000 Palestinians who died. Half of them are terrorists.
