    That’s literally one of the “best” ratios for urban warfare in modern conflicts tho? It’s a shame that the war is even there, but the numbers are “in Israel favor”, Gaza is densely populated, and this is a full scale war.

      That’s simply not true. You might be basing your opinion on the widespread (but almost entirely made up) statistic that “90% of war casualties are civilians”.

      Add in that this is no longer 1945 or whatever and you have to come to terms that the death toll is so high largely because the IDF is one of if not the most profoundly cowardly militaries on the planet
