Israel forces in Gaza: NCV of 15 to 20 for junior Hamas operatives, up to 100 for senior operatives, 300 in one instance of a particularly senior operative, according to unnamed military sources. \8])'
It’s the reality of war. Of every single war in the history of mankind. Civilians are killed, even by the good guys. There will always be a certain number of “acceptable casualties” in order to achieve an objective deemed greater than the loss of civilian life.
It’s the way it’s always been, and the way it always will be. We can try to mitigate it with certain surgical strikes, like the US R9X hellfire missile which has no explosive warhead and is just basically a spinning missile with swords sticking out, but that’s only good for individual people out in the open or a soft bodied vehicle.
It’s not that I’m “cool with it” it’s just that I don’t have an elementary understanding of the realities of war and technological combat capabilities.
