What you’re saying is “collective punishment is the way we should handle this”.

No, I merely observe that it appears the Palestinians in Gaza are experiencing collective punishment at the hands of the Israelis at the moment, and that sometimes in the course of human affairs collective punishment has been known to happen- especially in war & in “special military operations”

That first line which is a quote of your own words… which is you saying what you think I am saying, which is in the end, you saying something- not me. .
