    Collateral damage is not collective punishment.

    Collateral damage is acceptable when targeting legal targets.

    Targets are only legal in a time of war.

    Something tells me you don’t do this for a living.

        What’s more likely, Israel is a nation state troll with multiple western security apparatuses in support or there’s at least a scheme of logic that people who actually look at the data can look at?

        It’s funny because everyone I know that is liberal and left who work in national security break with the rest of their demographic and you see it in the Democratic party establishment as well. I’ve never seen a more clear line between experts who work on the space and those that do not.
