From Ukraine last year, to Nagorno-Karabakh last month and now Israel, it really does feel like there's a trend of people becoming more comfortable with using large-scale unilateral violence to solve problems. That trend itself greatly worries me; each instance normalizes and legitimizes the next.

Do you think this particular spat in the decade-long Israelo-Palestinian conflicts is meaningful? It only seem remarkable because of unusually high Israeli civilian life cost.

To me, it doesn't feel like something new that couldn't have happened in the past (as it has!)
