AFP has been keeping a tally of deaths in the mini-war between Hezbollah and Israel.
According to its tally, the casualties on the Lebanese and Syrian side include:
147 Hezbollah members in Lebanon
16 Hezbollah members in Syria
10 Hamas members in Lebanon
10 Islamic Jihad members in Lebanon
7 Hamas members in the Salah Arouri assassination assumed to be Israel
1 Lebanese soldier
26 civilians
Plus apparently 9 undetermined (AFP's numbers don't add up)
This means between 85% and 88% of those killed in Lebanon were militants.
As opposed to Hezbollah, which is literally targeting civilian houses and civilians themselves with anti-tank weapons and posting videos.
And Hezbollah explicitly says that they will target Israeli civilians. They have killed six so far, and the only reason the number is that low is because Israel evacuated all civilians from near the Lebanese border: Hezbollah has targeted dozens of civilian structures.
The difference in both sides' morality couldn't be starker. Yet Israel is the side called "genocidal."
