    Israel is worse than Russia, at least going by the numbers.

    Israel has killed more civilians in 2 months than Russia has killed in 2 years.

      To be fair though, the Russian army is a joke, and say what you want about the IDF, they’re good at their job. Their job is to mostly murder innocent civilians, and they’re quite good at that, much more efficient than the Russian army

      Yeah, but that’s what we know of. It’s suspected that there’s a record breaking (for modern Europe) mass grave outside Mariupol. I doubt the numbers will get as high as the IDFs, but we can’t get any independent journalists or investigators past Russia’s front line from my understanding.

      Also, like the other guy said, that fight is a bad professional army vs a better smaller professional army.

      The IDF vs Hamas is an okay but cruel professional army against a relatively bad terrorist organization.

          “Okay” means they are not as cool as they think. A good professional army would wipe its arse with them. Naturally Hamas is not that, nor anything threatening them.

        IDF was literally created by combining terrorist organizations, Haganah and Irgun being the big ones. So, unless the militant wing of Hamas is the cruel, professional Army, it’s terrorists vs. terrorists.
