Reading some comments claiming Israel is intentionally killing civilians Ive been thinking: why doesnt it deploy more weapons that have high civilian collateral damage?
Why doesnt Israel stop using precision weapons and start deploying MOAB equivelents?
Why didnt it cover southern Lebanon in air deployed mines and exfoliants making the whole area less habitable?
Why doesnt it heavily mine the area outside their aparthied wall?
Most of those who condemn Israel seem to do so regardless of Israel's and Hamas' actions. Many of those who support Israel do so with equal fervor. Few people seem to be judging Israeli and Hamas actions independant of their own prejudices.
So how much international good will would Israel actually loose by no longer deploying weapons that minimize collateral damage, and start using tactics and weapons that are specifically indifferent, rather then minimizing or maximizing, collateral deaths?
