Former President Barack Obama cautioned against ignoring the complexities of the Israel-Hamas war, warning that “all of us are complicit.”

“If you want to solve the problem, then you have to take in the whole truth. And you then have to admit nobody’s hands are clean, that all of us are complicit to some degree,” he said in an excerpted interview with Pod Save America released Saturday.

Voluntarily releasing reports on civilian casualties doesn't seem like they thought it wasn't a problem

The ones where every male above 18 was just classified as a terrorist?

"Sorry everyone, look how bad we are. We killed all these people, and we're going to kill more. Aren't we bad?"

That doesn't really show any concern.
