Skinny, lets go back to that map. You don't find it odd that most of the propaganda coming out of Israel about the Hamas attack seems to resolve around stories involving children? Why is that? Because it pulls at the heartstrings, anytime an allegation is made that involves hurting children, it allows a blanket response that is digestible by the public, no matter how harsh.
Hamas is doing the same type of propaganda themselves reporting that many of the civilians dying in these bombings are women and children. Is that true, who knows?
Serious question -- Is there a difference between killing a child with a bullet vs a bomb?

The maps and info aren't JUST about kids though; that's just what the media has been putting in the headlines. The plans are actually insanely detailed, and for all the early questions of "how did they get away with such a large scale attack?" these plans answer those.
SOMEONE made a battle plan, and many of the terrorists had them. If it is propaganda, it means the provocateurs planned the attack, and somehow the terrorists followed the exact same plans. I find that harder to believe than "terrorists went after the most exposed civilians possible, and in some cases that meant kids"
As for women and children getting hit by bombs, it makes sense because Hamas puts their targets in the worst possible locations in terms of collateral damage. And I think I saw something about more than half the population in Gaza are women and children. More than average populations at least. I assume that's because a lot of the men become terrorists when they reach adulthood, and get themselves killed.
