We had no problem leveling entire German cities in World War II and no one ever considered it a war crime. And it wasn't. It was the nature of war. When legitimate targets are mingled into the population, and the population suffers, it is on the responsibility of the government there to have avoided it. Especially when the aggressor sets the tone by first attacking population centers per se (as the Germans did in World War II, provoking the Battle of Britain). Hamas began a program of attack against peaceful civilians, so it is on their head that they will suffer in kind.
We know because people report that they do.
