@calispera I think these things are discussable. But I don't think it's unreasonable for Israel to take the position that if they have to choose, fewer military deaths is preferable. Especially when it's Gazan terrorists, put in power by Gazan adults, that started this war. If the rest of the world wants this to be different, then it can send troops in to clean out Gaza and prevent October 7 from happening again. The world is unwilling to do that. So as far as I'm concerned it can shut the hell up until it's willing to put some skin in this game. I might wish for things like the security barrier not having gone up, but there's a reason that happened and it's not just because Bibi's an asshole. 👁

@serge @calispera Yes. As tragic and absolutely heartbreaking as civilian deaths are, and they definitely are I wish none of this were happening, war is ugly and horrible and the more modern it is the more ugly and horrible which is why it should be avoided whenever possible. "Possible" does not include countries/peoples just tolerating it when someone else comes in and abducts/tortures/rapes/murders civilians. And these kids screaming "Genicide!" at the top of their entitled lungs doesn't change one bit of this. 👁
