    So if a bank robber took a cashier as a hostage, you’d suggest to just shoot the hostage, to get to the bank robber?

      Comparing actions being taken in a war being fought over an area larger than that of Delaware to that of a bank robbery is too reductionist to give any sort of meaningful response to.

          War fucking sucks, and sometimes the only way to save 10,000 lives is to end 100. Every country has limited resources to deal with hostage situations in active warzones.

            The thing though is, that this is not the case with IDF. They have plenty resources, enough to be selling to the rest of the world actually, and they are not preventing an impending attack. It seems like their motives are somewhere else

            Hahaha isreali loses are less than 2000 by all the numbers I’ve found, Palestinians dead 10000+, Palestinians injured 30000.

            You’re correct, scale matters.
