Neither side has the moral high ground in this conflict.

The body count shows the amount of damage each side is causing.

The Israeli army is causing over-killing and massacres on purpose.
I won't equate Hamas to the IDF because such comparison is not fair; neither mathematically nor from a humanitarian side .
Hamas could've caused higher fatalities if it bombed schools and hospitals. But it didn't. What happened to the propaganda of Israel which accused Hamas of being ISIS ?
Israel did on the other hand !
Again, the numbers don’t count. Hamas launched a terror campaign, Israel responded with war crimes. If both sides had restricted their attacks to non-civilian targets (police stations, military installations, etc), I’d likely give Hamas the moral edge, given Israel’s abominable treatment of the Palestinians.
Since they didn’t, I won’t.
