Context changes moral outcomes. Lying is morally acceptable in some circumstances and not in others. The famous example being lying to an SS Officer about hiding Jews in your house would be morally permissible lie.

The same is true for the morality of the consequences of war. If the Causus belli of a war is justifiable, then presumably reasonable actions taken to win that war are justifiable.

The October 7th attack created a justifiable Causes belli based on any concept of country and borders. Mass murder of a country’s civilian population by a foreign state is a direct act of war.

The question now is whether Israel has taken unreasonable actions that have killed civilians. Either by intentionally targeting or recklessly endangering Palestinian civilians. I would argue yes, given a 2:1 civilian to military casualty ratio is worse than even liberal estimates of the Vietnam war, which have it at a 1:1 to 1:3 ratio. Given Israel’s ratio is so high, it suggests Israel is taking unethical actions against the civilian population.
