That's precisely why you don't just start wars to show the world that your dick is still bigger than everybody else's.

As an engineer a substantial amount of my professional effort is spent on preventing them. They aren't acceptable.

Sure. The point is this was a particularly tragic accident. And it happened for, from the looks of the ceasefire conditions, jack shit.

More pointedly: if it was an accident, it should be investigated. Honestly. Openly. Not only is it horrible, bombing children is a strategic blunder in a war for hearts and minds.

These kinds of accidents seem to be particularly common in wars waged by Israel for some reason.
