      I can agree with that. To a certain extent there are always civilian casualties during wartime. Not condoning it, but it is a fact of war even in the “smart” age.

      A ground invasion seems to be the only fairly retaliatory measure.

        No retaliatory measure is fair, because it’s focusing on retribution instead of reconciliation. The attack on the dance party was retaliatory, too.

        Retaliation only leads to escalation, and lots of death.
