Of course, this is all human life, even that of the people they claim to represent and protect. This is a religious war with a thin veneer of population displacement coating it to make it easier for some to swallow. Because it is a religious war there is no rational resolution to it, and anyone thinking otherwise is deluding themselves.
This is a false dichotomy. As with just about everything in this world there is far more nuance than just two sides to it.
Also, I would argue that the thin veneer is the religious component. Religion is often used as an excuse for things that really just boil down to people being pieces of shit.
