Of course Israel bears responsibility for how they respond to the terrorism perpetrated against them, just as Hamas bears responsibility for the terrorism in the first place. However, what Israel is doing is war, not terrorism. Unlike Hamas, Israel's target is Hamas members and not random civilians - many not even Israeli citizens - who were enjoying a music festival. There will be civilian casualties in what Israel is doing, but it's fundamentally different from terrorism as the civilian deaths are not the primary goal. Edit: Are you trying to push the unreasonable interpretation that by saying "unfolding violence" the students were referring to Israel's response rather than what Hamas did?
