I wholeheartedly agree with you in the abstract, Victor: War is the worst of all options if you have any others you can choose. That said, humanity loves war. If it didn't, there wouldn't be at least one on the planet any given day of any given year. We are hard-wired to war and conflict, it seems. The other is that most wars are avoidable but some aren't. Israel-Hamas is the latter. All Hamas had to do to avoid all this was not murder Israelis. But it did, and now Israel will finish this fight it didn't start. I find this war sad because of the number of innocent deaths on both sides, but not immoral because Israel has no choice but to fight it.
