There's a mission in the video game Star Wars: The Old Republic in which an Imperial character can place explosives inside handheld communicators being used by resistance fighters -- following through with the plan gives you lots of Dark Side morality points.

And then if you go Light Side on that mission, the guy reveals that civillian casualties is the point. Kinda eerie.

Israel is just farming those dark side points, they wanna wear those cool robes you can buy when its maxed out

Star Wars also came to my mind when thinking about this whole thing. It's something that could come straight from the mind of Darth Sidious.

I've been trying to find details about this on the internet. Do you have more specifics that I can look up somewhere?

It's just a small side mission, so it's not well-documented. The Dark Side choice is to put explosives in the comm units in order to kill civilians; the Light Side choice is to sabotage grenades in order to only kill resistance soldiers. It's a mission only for characters aligned with the Sith Empire, so even the "good" choice is pretty shitty.

Perfect, Thank you!
