IDF drone imagery and intent

The original poster's point: if Israeli military drones can see forelocks and temple curls on individual targets, they have the resolution to identify religious markers that signal who is and isn't a combatant. Which means when they strike those targets, they're not making mistakes. They're making choices. That's not fog of war. That's knowledge with consequences.
