There are no good guys here.
Now tell me what it's like in those other countries around them. You know, for anyone who's not a straight male Muslim. And tell me their about governmental systems, are they also free and democratic?
I happen to believe liberty and freedom and democracy are good things.

Except the Palestinian controlled areas that they completely cut off from trade and practically trap there in poverty with no self determination or possible way to uplift themselves economically.
That's what freedom looks like.

None of this justifies something like 80% civilian casualty rates.
They are either extremely inept or capriciously apathetic. You can't claim moral highground with 80% civilian casualties.
