You are not arguing honestly by claiming it's 55 "commanders" vs [inflated number] civilians.

It's very likely the 2:1 ratio of civilian:Hamas is correct given the intense ground battle and that the 17-19K death toll clearly is includes thousands of Hamas fighters. The ratio of civilian deaths for similar urban wars is much worse.

Ok, that's fair to argue over the figures. The point I was making was that displacing the entire Gazan population is not insignificant, and more indicative of ethnic cleansing than a small conflict. As to the other points about fostering integration rather than segregation, those go here unanswered as they are valid.

I'll link https://ncase.me/polygons/ here, as a simplified example of why this matters. I would also add that this is going in the opposite direction here, thanks to this conflict amplifying extreme views, and unhelpful and discriminatory laws such as Administrative Detention https://www.hrw.org/news/2023/11/29/why-does-israel-have-so-...
