I never said you said it was his fault.

I asked you again because that is the only thing that I would blame on him personally. It's obviously not his fault and thus his death is unfortunate.

Please take a course in reading comprehension.

It doesn't matter at all what his "GOVERMENT" did.

There are three parties in this war: Israel/IDF, Hamas, and civilians.

A persons country of origin is completely irrelevant when it comes to civilians. It's always bad that civilians die no matter what any non-civilian party did.

He was a civilian, and he was killed because of actions from both non-civilian parties. Saying that his death doesn't matter (which you absolutely implied in response to my comment, both in writing and in emoji) just because someone else killed him doesn't make it less of a tragedy. And the fact that you dismissed his death just because the IDF had a part in killing, makes you a pretty terrible person.
