Since October 7, more than 3,257 children have been reported killed, including at least 3,195 in Gaza, 33 in the West Bank, and 29 in Israel, according to the Ministries of Health in Gaza and Israel respectively. The number of children reported killed in just three weeks in Gaza is more than the number killed in armed conflict globally – across more than 20 countries – over the course of a whole year, for the last three years.

    In that example, I would be in prison because I refused to join the IDF.

      So by avoiding any action you would allow them to fire the rocket.

      I understand and respect that.

      It’s a huge gray area and just one example of the complex morality component of this conflict.

        By avoiding being part of the apartheid system of Israel, I’m one step in the right direction.

            You are misrepresenting Israel’s options. It’s a logical fallacy. It’s not “kill or be killed”, and also seems like it’s very dangerous for the hostages that Israel does a ground invasion.
