Especially when the "collateral damage" is in this case is "I can no longer buy iphone".
Edit: with this I only meant to say that it is unfair to judge or blame - policies still need to be enforced which is in line with the established consensus of moral philosophy.
Can we blame the mentally underdeveloped, like children?
That's where the buck stops, because definibg what a non-combatant is is easier then deciding who is "innocent".
Sanctions are trickier, I just fail to come with an alternative to them.
My counter-point is that almost everyone from my friends, family and colleagues are upset about the war, and many left the country
"but they're not innocents." ===> I'm wondering if those crazy bombers think the same as you do when killing/bombing "Civilians" instead or armed forces.
You logic was prevalent in feudal times. If someone attacked you, you'd wipe they whole city/area and their entire family tree just to make sure theree's nobody left to take revenge.
Considering the cost of the bomb, I think the expected value is rather likely to be negative.
I think sanctions should be applied based on answers to these questions, not some vague idea that they'll be like a debuff in a video game.
