... You never answered this though, did our carpet bombing of Germany in WW2 make WW2 a “both sides are bad” conflict . The obvious answer is no it did not but somehow Israel is put to this much higher standard when they are facing an enemy who wants to genocide them .
You can not compare WWII with today.
We (the world) need to be better, than how we "acted" 80 years ago.
Also, Germany in WWII was still a very powerful force (threat) up until say 6-9 months before V-E day. Other than the massive botch (in defenses and intelligence) by Israel on Oct 7, Israel now has the enormous upper-hand in this "war" (militarily), and are no longer in threat of anything significant happening from Hamas/Gaza. (If Israel had more defense forces and structures/fortifications along the perimeter, this would have never happened; other than a bunch of dead Hamas fighters.)
