Those warships could've been used for intercepting Israeli missiles that could have saved many more civilians life, more than 40k. But those warships are not for civilian safety instead they are for ensuring safety of a regime while they commit genocide.
Bullet point 1 is untrue. You have to minimize civilian casualties, but bombing an actual legit target means collateral is not considered a war crime. The civilians still get bombed though.
Bullet point 2 is retaliation on retaliation on retaliation on retaliation ad infinitum.. there is no good guy here.
Bullet point 3 seems to ignore Russia and Iran are arming the other side. Just like it ignores that a lot of Israelis in the north were under constant shelling from southern Libanon (Hezbollah).. at some point there would be a response.
