Also understand that this is not an indictment of Isreal in particular. By the modern standards of warfare they’ve behaved quite admirably in most cases. I’m simply saying that the nature of the conflict in the middle east is such that conventional notions of “acceptable collateral damage” are not workable. It is exceedingly difficult to explain to a man who grew up fatherless because of a given country’s military action that it is wrong for him to think of that country as a bunch of murderers.
