      Are you really suggesting that every asymmetrical war that is conducted successfully is genocide? O.o

          A nation taking lots of casualties has the same responsibilities as one taking few casualties.

          That said, the proportion of civilian casualties to the total population of Gaza is comparable to that of Chechnya and less than in Vietnam, North Korea or the East Front of WW2. Unfortunately, civilian casualties are an inevitable part of modern war.

      I mean, there isn’t any obligation in war to make sure casualties are evenly distributed among both sides.

      Normally, a lopsided war ends only when the losing side surrenders.
