So basically, your perspective is that a system that protects Israeli civilians is immoral because every single Israeli is immoral? Yeah, that seems very sane. /s
Defense of a state that is actively engaging in genocide is a problem.
The Iron Dome stops attacks on military targets, blame Israel for hiding behind civilians as it launches its missiles and drones from US provided safety.
We do blame Israel. In the mean time, this piece of technology is actively saving the lives of innocent people. Of all the weird things to be upset about, the one that’s explicitly defensive maybe the weirdest.
This is bordering on misinformation but I’m not going to act on that.
The Iron Dome is primarily used to protect civilians, although it may also incidentally or occasionally be used to protect military targets as well.
Israel does not use its own citizens as cover for military operations. Here is a map of military bases in Israel, which are separate from civilians as required by international law.
There is no similar map of military sites in Gaza because Hamas uses civilian cover for military operations, including launching international attacks, from schools, mosques, churches, and hospitals.
Operation Shark. This is literally Palestine taking a page from proto isrealis terrorists which by the by dug a significant amount of the smuggling tunnels which is also how Israel know they exist.

you’re right, the Palestinians they literally drag around as human shields aren’t citizens, they are just the people who lived on the land before the Israeli state decided that Palestine never existed. They do however make great reactive armor.
It could be argued that Israel is free to unleash their campaign of genocide because the people in Israel do not experience the horrors themselves. There is no pressure to reach an agreement. Bringing the hostages back has been the only rallying cry by Israelis, but other than that, actually ending the genocide doesn’t have much support.
It’s similar to how so many consumer goods are produced through the use of slavery. That distance and lack of visibility mean there is little pressure from consumers to stop those practices.
One is defensive and one is a genocide over land. Not really a hard choice for sane people.
The iron dome enables the genocide.
Not really a hard choice for sane people.

Oh so much better if they don’t use their own civilians…
Implying that Israel gives even the remotest shit about international law seems like misinformation.
IIRC correctly Geneva conventions only apply if both sides adhere to it
