Israel unilaterally withdrew from Gaza years ago but has still had to contend w/ ongoing attacks from the territory, that aspect seems to be glossed over in coverage of the conflict. (It helps explain Netanyahu's durability in otherwise very volatile Israeli politics) =>https://twitter.com/benshapiro/status/996391164365365248 …
I apportion blame to each side when it's deserved. I think it's been too one sided in the other direction.

Is it too much to expect the more powerful, way more, to exhibit a greater sense of morality in prosecution of war and conflict.

Putting aside your argument who has exercised more morality in this conflict, I think you hit an important point. In fact, I think both should be held to the same standards, vs. putting more on Israel because they are more powerful.

I do not think that either the US or Israel will derive much advantage in strategic geopolitical schemes of it were to prosecute war with disregard to what they stand for, it diminishes their influence and threatens the current hegemony.

You grudgingly do so hence a "but" when addressing Israel's culpability.
-
Not grudgingly - I just see less of it than you do. But appreciate the exchange.

This, especially in recent history, has not been a clash of equals, hence the huge discrepancy in the number of casualties each has been able to inflict on another.
