Arete ,

I agree the civilian death toll is outsized, but just to play Devil's advocate here: Hamas is the group putting out the women and children numbers, and given they don't make a civilian/soldier distinction they almost certainly are including all soldiers under 18 in the "children" numbers. They want you to picture 10k murdered 6-year-olds, but we don't actually have a break down by age or child-soldier status. Hopefully we can get some visibility there soon.
