    They just recently killed three of their hostages, mistakenly identifying them as a threat.

    Netanyahu said this was an unbearable tragedy, but I can’t stop wondering if they misidentified three of their own, how many civilian Gazans were targeted “mistakenly”. And if the death of three is unbearable, how would they describe the deaths of tens of thousands?

      The soldiers saw some (unarmed, shirtless) people and one of them immediately said “terrorists!”. That’s the level of analysis that’s going on when making kill decisions here.
