    How exactly should have I interpreted the phrase “enemy civilians?” What is the charitable interpretation of that phrase?

        Gaza is not an enemy nation. It is not even a nation. This is supposed to be a war between Israel and Hamas. Not Israel and the Palestinian people. You are still saying all those children’s deaths were justified.

          a large body of people united by common descent, history, culture, or language, inhabiting a particular country or territory.

          Sounds like a nation to me.
          Hamas is the government of Gaza.
          When one’s government goes to war, the people who live under it are subjected to the consequences. This is how war works.
