Israel’s response has already killed thousands of innocent people. Why is it necessary? Is a mass bombing of residential areas the only response to an attack? In the first night of bombing they leveled entire villages in Palestine. Whole families were killed, who had no connection to Hamas or any militant group.
It’s not only unnecessary, but won’t even work to destroy Hamas. A supporter of Hamas could just as easily say that the brutality of their attack was necessary to destroy the Zionist government of Israel.
Have a look at pictures of Berlin after WW2 sometime.

The Geneva Convention was a direct result of the horrors of WWII.
Yes, and one of the things it deems a war crime is collective punishment.

It is necessary to destroy Hamas, Hamas made it necessary.

Strategic bombing was widely put into question after wwii
The allies should have held back.
