There were 3/4 of a million people in Gaza before this started. For 2 months, anything that didn’t have a standalone generator or solar panels has been shut down. No food, no water, no medicine except dwindling stocks and the pittance Israel lets through for the media.
According to 3rd party estimates, Israel has dropped over 25,000 tons of bombs so far. That’s over 6 times the total for the Dresden bombing. And Israel even claimed they used 4,000 pounds in just the first week.
You really think that’s not carpet bombing? That the death toll is nothing?
The thing is: What’s going on in Gaza right now is the modern equivalent of carpet bombing. When you can call in airstrikes with building-level accuracy, there’s no reason to bomb whole cities to the ground anymore, so what Israel is doing now is its spiritual successor.
They sometimes send warnings (that Gazans aren’t always able to receive). A lot of the time they don’t. Also like the other guy said, Israel has dropped enough bombs for 6 Dresdens. They just didn’t do it all at once.
That has been obvious for at least 40 years but yep. This is how carpet bombing looks like with modern weaponry.
