I read it that the Palestinians should be grateful because by rights 117000 civilians should be dead if it followed convention. We should be thanking Israel for the restraint.
This isn't going to end well!

9 civilians for every 1 military is average according to the UN.

Why are they bombing that area?
Is it because hamas is there?
Reuters report today Israeli raids into camps and militants were killed and arrested.
If hamas are hiding and fighting from civilian areas, then sadly civilians will die.
Just like in all wars throughout history.

Guess it shows they are carefully targeting not just bombing everyone.

That's why they have targeted all the journalists so they themselves can report on how careful they are being.

Oh, and we wouldn't want aid workers reporting home would we?
Interested to know how the Israelis identify the killing of Hamas fighters as they don't wear any uniform, I have a feeling it's classed as a Hamas fighter if male between the ages of 16 & 40 & dead regardless of whether they were actually a Hamas fighter.

Errr, Jordan likely have radar of their own and contributed to the defence of Israel?
You don't seem to be getting this, do you? This is not an Israel vs the rest of the middle east situation, despite your apparent desire for it to be so. Jordan has been shooting down foreign aggressor drones for many years if you care to search out the facts.
Why are British warplanes flying over Jordan? Errr, because the UK is allied with Jordan and has strong diplomatic ties with them?
Seriously, you guys need to read around the reality of the middle east a bit more and not just rely on Mr Men books.
Iran launches dozens of hostile drones with the deliberate intent of hitting Israel with zero regard for civilian life and you complain Israel smash the Iranian consulate in Syria? You guys are borderline pathological in your thinking now.

Come on then Brian, how do you suppose one differentiates between a civilian/non-combatant and an enemy combatant in a warzone? You're quick to comment on these foreign conflicts and know so much, tell us what you know?

They use AI which gives them something to blame if it goes wrong.

There I was thinking they just go by the flags the people are waving but using AI seems a far better answer.

Oh it is, and the algorithm allows for up to 20 civilian casualties per target. It's much better.
I thought it was if they were young male & move then they are Hamas or near enough!

Yeah, dodging the profanity filter on the forum won't go down well with the mods mate. Grow up and discuss the issues that are mentioned or you're best off signing out.

Hamas have said how many palistinians have died, not Israel.

It's a terrible thing that's happening, but war is tragic and terrible.
Fighting an enemy in a densely populated area is dangerous to your own troops and so to keep your own casualties down, you bomb and shell enemy positions, which is going to result in civilian casualties if your enemy is fighting from civilian areas.
Do you expect a war with no civilian deaths?
