The reason it caught my eye was because recently I had come across a passage in a reading comprehension quiz which tried to critique the usage of “women and children” counts in the reporting of Gazan casualties but either I failed the comprehension part or it was liberal nonsense. This article and the book it is about are closely related but in contrast the points made here are excellent. Israel had crossed the line of barbarity/inhumanity/whatever long before they murdered Hind Rajab. That pro-Palestine voices are squeamish about voicing unequivocal support for, say, a 30 year old Palestinian man who ended up joining armed resistance is an excellent observation that is worth grappling with.
