      Your evidence supports that there are members of the IDF who are enthusiastically engaged with what they’re doing. I am not debating that- i think you’re right.

      But it’s important to remember this absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Just because you haven’t seen interviews of IDF members objecting to what they are doing does not mean those members do not exist. I would expect the IDF to have systems in place to minimize the external visibility if any such objections, which makes a generalization like that dangerous.

          It would be a logical fallacy to jump to such a conclusion without interviewing a randomly sampled and much larger population. It is possible you may be correct or incorrect, but you are jumping to a conclusion about a topic with insufficient data to do so.

              If your sample is heavily biased, then the data from it is worthless.

                  Nah, I’m not going to argue science and statistics with someone who clearly understands neither.

                    Going through these comments you’ve not presented one scientific or statistical argument. You’re basically going on vibes.

              The beautiful irony here is that you are believing in and spreading IDF propaganda for them.

      There’s been multiple polls that show the vast majority of Israelis are behind the genocide of the Palestinians. To think the IDF thinks anything differently is absurd. These people arguing with you are living in a fantasy world.
