    This is one of those war crimes you can know very little about war crimes and still identify. It’s just that fucked.

      It’s called “perfidy”

      Quoting Wikipedia:

      In the context of war, perfidy is a form of deception in which one side promises to act in good faith with the intention of breaking that promise once the unsuspecting enemy is exposed.

    Well that’s certainly a war crime. Wonder if the rest of the world will look the other way on this too.

      Oil is involved so… yes.:-(

      Remember the Republicans in the USA are still salivating over how to stop funding to curb Russian aggression while simultaneously wanting to fund Israel.

      We went from being one step away to joining with Ukraine to now being one step away from joining Israel.

      They’re just doing it so blatantly so they can show everyone they can get away with it. It’s the same reason Putin kills his rivals in ways that obviously implicate him, he wants people to know it was him and nobody can do anything about it.

      terrorism is the war of poor

      Hold up a mirror so the script gets flipped

      'cause when it’s in reverse it ain’t wrong no more

      Warfare’s the terrorism of the rich

      This is like mobster tactics or something, terrorist tactics is indiscriminate bombing, collective punishment, scorched earth, torture, targeting civilians, targeting humanitarian efforts, disproportionate responses. Everything they’ve been doing until now.

      Because in war, the only goal is to remove the enemy by any means. Warcrimes mean nearly nothing if you remove the entire opposition. Victors write history books.

    Check out the r/worldnews thread. Example:

    So let me get this straight.

    Israel bombs hospitals to target Hamas terrorists. Everyone hates that because of the indirect casualties to civilian lives and direct damage to precious infrastructure.

    Israel then does targeted attacks inside hospitals and ensures only Hamas terrorists die with very minimal damage to anything else. Everyone hates that because “they didn’t do it right.”

    So then how are they supposed to get into hospitals to take these guys down? Is it a free terrorist shelter now? Is everyone inside a hospital safe from retaliation?

    They want praise for only committing like three separate warcrimes instead of blowing up the already occupied hospital.

        Ah yes, the famous non-state loophole, where you can just shoot people in their hospital beds and it’s not a war crime. Just because someone is not part of a regular state military does not mean they have literally zero rights. Also dressing up as a doctor or nurse is a war crime. The occupation itself is a illegal as well, they shouldn’t even be there.

    They seem to become more desperate now. Everything that they do will return to them someday.

  • This type of actions are done on purpose to blurry the line between civilians and army so no one knows who is who. Everyone is paranoid so hamas kills more civilans, so Israel government can kill more civilans in retribution. Over all, Isriaelly goverment will win, since they are backed by US and they will take over all the land from Palestinians.
