    If an attack is emanate from a group of terrorists and you are certain to save countless lives, but one or two innocent people are collateral damage, then I think we can understand that it isn’t black and white. Heck, in those scenarios not only do those innocent people die, but you then pay a few million to their families for their losses.

    When you instead are leveling a city, blowing up ambulances and hospitals and you literally have one of the most advanced air defense systems in the world on your side, and you’re killing close to over tens of thousands of innocent people to save a hundred or even two hundred, then it is black and white.

      It’s not as simple as you put it. e.g. Look up what Gaza people had to say about Hamas placing rockets in these spots before Oct the 7 . Also where do you get confidence of the data reported by terrorist controlled government are reliable?
