@Robert_R_Freitag_II@mastodon.social @randahl Yeah, they're different objectives. IDF has to radically degrade Hamas' ability to do things like 10/7, of course. In some sense the US doesn't really need to take on the analog of that at this point, and killing these 3 terrorists of course doesn't do anything remotely like that.

There's no good way for IDF to do what it needs to do without a lot of collateral damage; this is a tragic situation but unfortunately it's the one they're in.
