Having trained with the IDF, here is my point of view.
The Israeli senior leadership has views on collateral damage more akin to US Junior NCOs.
US senior leadership has views on collateral damage more akin to a politician.
US Junior enlisted and IDF junior enlisted are effectively the same, although IDF junior NCOs shoulder seemingly more responsibility.
I venture that will only make sense to people familiar with the types of people in both organizations. I think that Israel's situation makes this position necessary. I will tell you, the average 19 year old IDF soldier seemed somewhat more mature than the average 19 year old US Marine or Soldier.
