Shakey Gaza Cease-Fire

[FoxtArt]

Mostly unrelated to this, but it's a bit absurd to me the risks we take as a society for the recovery of a corpse.

Example: Diver drowns during a very risky deep water caving expedition. Other divers work out a very complicated technical rescue of his corpse. Another diver drowns in the process, but they get both bodies back. Is it worth it?

If members of the IDF ultimately die over arguments here re: corpses, will that make the families of the corpses feel better? Or worse? I really don't know. I get that they want their child home in any condition. But would they still really want that at the cost of further life?

Once I'm dead, throw ashes into the garden, or anywhere, I'm dead. I know there are groups that believe a body needs to be complete and will someday come alive again (??) but I'd argue they either haven't read, or understand their own religious texts. I can't imagine the feeling knowing other parents lost their children so that I could receive a predeceased relative's body myself, ripping an irreplaceable wound in several others for my own "closure".

ETA:
FTR, I get it, Hamas sucks, these were hostages, IDF should get the bodies back, and Hamas should get wiped off the map. I don't disagree with that. I'm just wondering more broadly, why do we kill our neighbors (not talking Hamas) to get a family member's body back from really dangerous shit.
