Terrorist cell embedded itself within civilians around Al-Quds Hospital, fired from the hospital entrance at IDF soldiers, and was subsequently eliminated
Okay genius, how do you kill them when they are in tunnels under neighborhoods? You cannot get into them without an explosion, even if present in person and they won’t just sit there either. This is not a war crime and I’m really questioning everyone’s collective intelligence and ability to think through problems instead of reacting to stimulus.
You don’t have to shoot missiles indiscriminately into civilian zones. If your enemy is hiding among civilian infrastructure and/or using human shields, you need to change your tactics up to suit. Committing war crimes in order to kill your enemy isn’t how you retain the moral highground.
I’m still waiting on these tactics you are recommending. Alternatives don’t exist so your argument is absolute bullshit. The faster they can get through this, the less overall civilian suffering will occur.
Good luck providing proof of intent. That should be a red flag right there about your narrative. Israel’s narrative has never been that they are targeting civilians and they’ve shown on quite a few occasions in this current conflict that they have justification for their targets. They are at war right now. They don’t have time to justify every single target to you personally.
bombing civilian infrastructure which is likely to have families, children, non combatants inside is a war crime.
collective punishment is a war crime.
forcible relocation is a war crime.
ordering civilians to a new area and then bombing them en route or on arrival is intentional targeting of civilians, and therefore a war crime.
blockading a population within an area which you are actively shelling is a war crime.
depriving a population of non combatants of food and water and fuel is a war crime.
bombing a convoy of ambulances is a war crime.
bombing a refugee camp is a war crime.
killing reporters is a war crime.
use of white phosphorus on civilian targets is a war crime.
Israel has done all of these things. There is no excuse for war crimes. It doesn’t matter how evil the enemy is, you are not allowed to do these things and not be a war criminal.

The civilians can’t suffer if they are dead so you’re not wrong but are advocating for war crimes.
I think I’d rather be wrong.
What war crimes? There is a difference between war and war crimes and hardly anybody on this site knows the difference.
This site?
The perfectly homogenous lemmy?
I’m talking about intentionally targeting civilian population which is a defined war crime.
How do you figure it is not?

They are bombing a fucking hospital, if you think that’s fine then you’re a shitty person as well.
IDF hasn’t bombed any active hospital yet.

can you tell hamas to also not be war criminals?
