I dunno about you - personally, I imagine "being crushed to death under a collapsed building" to be quite "horrific" - and "actually surviving for long enough to die of thirst" as even more "horrific". To slowly and agonisingly die of untreated illness or injury on the grounds of a totally collapsed medical system? Pretty "horrific". Dying of infection after an amputation without anaestesia? Pretty fucking "horrific" in my book! Lucky are the ones who are just killed outright and on the spot!
On a side note: I was speaking with a friend from Switzerland the other day - and she vigorously "but Hamas-ed" me. At which point, I opted to point out that William Tell, the Swiss mythical founding hero - basically sort of "the King Arthur of Switzerland" - would, in modern terms, be classed a terrorist! "Bloke with personal experience of injustice and humiliation, and the personal targetting of himself and his family" sounds very "Palestinian experience" to me. Anyway, as per the legend, Tell ends up assassinating a Habsburg bailiff - hoping, among other things, to inspire a large scale, violent popular uprising. And, for that matter, another mythical Swiss folk hero, Arnold von Winkelried, committed what arguably amounts to the medieval version of a suicide attack against enemy forces. My friend was pretty mind-blown at the idea. And I now feel vindicated for those several days I went down a "history of Switzerland" rabbit hole during COVID - because I was feeling bored out of my mind!
