I will ask again: what is the acceptable child to terrorist death ratio?

I read earlier this year that Israel considered 100 civilian deaths for one Hamas fighter a fair trade. I can't find the exact article, but it was about their use of AI in deciding targets. According to this article a "10% failure rate" is totally acceptable. So, anywhere between 9-1 and 100-1 is within parameters. Children are a points multiplier.
