President Joe Biden and his top advisers are warning Israel with growing force that it will become increasingly difficult for it to pursue its military goals in Gaza as global outcry intensifies about the scale of humanitarian suffering there.
It's a relative valuation; restraint means the numbers could have been much higher, but aren't. There are a lot of tactics Israel is capable of using and didn't. They notify people before strikes. They demarcate which zones need to be evacuated. They are attacking military targets and not civilians. Restraint.
They "demarcated" all of northern Gaza. And then they bombed the south too. There are no warnings happening. And their "military" targets claim is trash. They didn't know the invasion was happening and clearly don't know where Hamas are. They've been destroying single homes of journalists, blowing up ambulances evacuating patients from hospitals they're also threatening to bomb. There's no reason at all to trust Israel when they claim every single building they destroy was housing Hamas.
That they haven't simply razed every square inch of Gaza to the ground (or fucking nuked it like one minister suggested) doesn't make it "restrained".
