Is Sam Harris becoming a pariah for the anti-religious cause?

The morality of the current war in Gaza seems to hinge around this point. I would argue that according to international law, Hamas is more wrong since using civilians to shield military targets is not condoned at all, and not only that but Hamas tells civilians to ignore Israeli warning pamphlets. That having been said, Israel is idiotically playing right into Hamas's recruitment campaign by bombing those targets anyway and not coming up with a different way to seize the weapons.

Han Solo: Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other, and I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen *anything* to make me believe that there's one all-powerful Force controlling everything. 'Cause no mystical energy field controls *my* destiny. It's all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.
