I usually do not read New Yorker interviews, not being a paid subscriber to it, but this interview had an element of sarcasm from the interviewer, Isaac Chotiner, that I found interesting (How the Biden Administration defends its Israel Policy)

Jake Sullivan, national security advisor said:

"The Israelis aren’t waking up every morning, strapping their boots on, and going into the fight with the mind-set that they are deliberately going to kill civilians and that they’re going to reduce civilian infrastructure to rubble for the sake of doing it. That would certainly be a war crime."

I thought: Well, better call it a crime then, because that seems to be exactly what they are doing.
