You don't that because the info is not reported in the US very frequently. Since 2000, several hundred children under 12 have been killed by the Israelis.
Which you know because the information is available in the US. One of your arguments cuts down the other.
Also "several hundred children under 12 have been killed by the Israelis" equal "Israelis rutninely or frequently target unarmed non-violent children and kill them".
How many children where killed by America in WWII, or even Korea or Vietnam? How many children where killed in the two wars against Iraq and the sanctions in between. Does that mean the US targets and murders German, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, and Iraqi children?
Does these photos look like the Israelis were being careful? It looks to me like the father and son were targeted:
You can't determine that by the pictures. They where in the middle of a firefight, with automatic weapons fire spraying all around.
The boy may have even been targeted by Palestinians in order to win points in the propaganda battle against Israel but I think most likely he was accidently. Its unknown which side killed him accidently. They never recovered the bullet and the situation was a violent chaotic mess.

"...They were murdered. It wasn't just that no effort was made to spare them during an attack on a military target, they where the target."
Which incident was that?
"beginning with the killing of a pregnant Israeli woman and her four children by terrorists near a Gaza settlement, according to witnesses and Israeli military sources.
The family had been on its way to campaign for a no vote in a referendum among Likud party members on whether to approve Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's plan to withdraw Israeli troops and settlers from Gaza and from parts of the West Bank. (Full story)
After the attack, two gunmen were killed by Israeli soldiers on Kissufim Road in Gaza, which leads to the Gush Katif settlements, the military sources said.
The Popular Resistance -- an amalgamation of several armed Palestinian groups including Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the Fatah military wing -- took responsibility for the attack in a leaflet distributed in Gaza City.
A settler spokesman identified the victims as 34-year-old Tali Hatuel, who was eight months pregnant, and her four children: Hila, 11; Hadar, 9; Roni, 7; and Merav, 2."
