Chris Floyd can really apply the English language well to explanations of logic.
"Taking cover among civilians." This is a curious locution. When you launch missiles to kill the democratically elected officials of a government -- especially when you target their private homes -- where else do you expect to find them?
...
Naturally, it would be far more convenient if every member of Hamas -- including, again, the democratically elected officials of the government -- painted themselves bright red and gathered in, say, a soccer stadium, where Israel could then drop bombs on them with no muss, no fuss. But we are dealing with the real world, where human beings of every description, profession, ideology and belief must of necessity live and work in close proximity to one another...

Nice post. The use of language and bad logic by Israel and their apologists is something I've long been interested in. I wrote a couple of posts about this in the bast (but can't find the links now).
Also: nice blog.
Thank you. Yes, indeed a nice blog. DHC
Thank you both.
