    Ah, I was using Gaza city, not Gaza strip. And Iraq added 20 million people since the invasion? Wow, thought it would be less.

      To be fair to you though all of these boundaries are kind of arbitrary. Most bombing is in Gaza city, western Ukraine has been largely unaffected, etc. A better metric if we’re looking at “callous indifference to collateral damage” might be simply civilian deaths per bomb dropped, although the use of human shields in Gaza may throw that off as well.
