    If viewed like a ‘total war’, attacking every possible advantage the enemy may have whether civilian or military, it does makes sense from a historic military doctrine standpoint. The IDF believes they are immune to judgement and prosecution, and their goal is to destroy the Palestinian nation and people. They believe they are righteous, supported by God, so any attack that has a chance to weaken the Palestinian people is an attack they will take.

    Overall though I believe these attacks have weakened support for Israel so much that they have a greater chance of being defeated than anytime I’ve seen before this conflict.
