    30% seems like a very high estimate of civilians honestly, since less than 30% of Israel’s population are civilians.

    Over 90% of Israeli adults are current or former IDF. Finding a place where 30% of people are civilians would honestly be impressive.

    Although following the news you’d think the IDF is somehow the world’s only all-civilian military. Like that Israeli-American “hostage” whose family the Democrats kept trotting out, who finished active duty in Gaza ~6 months before October 7th. Thats not a hostage, that’s a prisoner of war.
