    Nor is it possible to ignore what has been happening in some Israeli military units, including special forces, where the best and most daring soldiers serve. There have been too many incidents of cruel shooting at civilians, of destruction of property and homes, even when this should not happen. There is too much looting and theft from homes, about which in many cases Israeli soldiers have boasted. Some have gone as far as posting about their antics online. Israelis are committing war crimes.

      There have been too many incidents of cruel shooting at civilians…

      Is this the opposite of empathetic and humane shooting at civilians?

        I mean, it gets worse:

        even when this should not happen. There is too much looting and theft

        Apparently he believes there are times cruel shooting at civilians should happen, and there’s an overall acceptable level of looting and theft.

        I guess he means cruel as opposed to “accidental”. He’s trying to make clear that it happens deliberately.

        My response would be… Too many? What’s an acceptable number of cruel shootings at civilians?
