The end does not justify the means. It is simply wrong to claim it is acceptable to kill innocent civilians, children, babies and all because it is the most convenient way of killing a terrorist.
Demanding civilians relocate from one side of a high density city to another so it can be carpet bombed is an act of revenge and a way of punishing a civilian population. Does anyone believe it is going to be effective in eliminating Hamas.

How else should Israel possibly kill the terrorists? They live and walk amongst civilians. There is ample evidence to show the urban areas are rife with Hamas infrastructure. If you support the eradication of Hamas and its infrastructure , you must support what you've falsely called "carpet bombing." Or you must support a massive ground invasion, which I suspect many will not.
And you either support Israel's effort to remove as many civilians as possible before the ground invasion or you must accept massive civilian losses.
It's very simple, you can't destroy Hamas without causing large scale destruction in Gaza because Hamas operate from civilian areas. Saying Israel can't cause this destruction is either ignorance of the nature of this war or a veiled desire to see Israel lose it. À la the Ukraine ceasefire argument.
