Zeev's Turnips Talk Politics (ZTTP)

[Math Junkie]

I'm not interested in comparisons of numbers of people killed by each side. In any war, usually one side or the other wins, and the winning side kills more people. It's an ugly fact of life, but I don't know any way to change it.

What's more relevant is what percentage of casualties caused by each side are persons who do not take an active part in the hostilities.

My objection to the Palestinian tactics is that they are not even trying to avoid civilian casualties, and in fact as far as they are concerned, the more the better. They had better hope and pray that people like you don't convince Israel that it's not necessary to try to avoid civilian casualties.
