> I certainly think the US given the same task would have been more surgical, but the US has a lot more money power and resources

Israel having too little “money, power, and resources” is not the reason Israel dropped nearly as many bombs on Gaza in the first six days of its reaction to the Oct. 7 attacks as the US dropped in the peak year of bombing in the Afghanistan war.

If anything contributed to that, it was a surplus of resources, not a shortage.

They may have more bombs than they have manpower. It's about which resources you choose to expend. Also the is has far more precision weapons than anyone else.

And their bombs have a kill rate of less than 1, a testament to them being as specific as possible.

I don't think this is really relevant when we are talking about over 20,000 bombs.

Not to be facetious, but if I were to drop 1,000 bombs on a village of 100 people, killing them all, it hardly matters that I can claim my 'kill rate' was 0.1.
