    We know from footage Hamas/PIJ killed a significant number, including civilians. Back in late 2023 I was figuring maybe about 75/25 Hamas/IDF ratio. Soon after, we saw a lot of evidence of IDF tanks and helicopters firing on civilians, not to mention the dozens of exploded cars. But that is a LOT of explosives in those statistics. 50/50, 33/66?

      The article states that the bombs were dropped over Gaza, not Israel. It also states that the airforce, in hindsight, feels they acted too careful out of fear for civilian casualties.

      I’ve read some of the ‘reasoning’ from this OP in the past and I’m afraid the twist that “the Israelis just went and killed themselves” is mostly wishful thinking
