    So you’re saying that even if an IDF soldier shoots a child in the face, it’s Hamas’ fault? Really?

        That’s an interesting way to excuse virtually any war crime imaginable if Israel chooses to commit it. “It’s Hamas’ fault that Israel covered Gaza in anthrax spores, they’re the reason Israel did it.”

          War crimes are crimes. If any happened, Israel will be held accountable.

          But still, hamas are the ones who brought this on Gaza.

            No if about it.

            The right of civilians not to be arbitrarily deprived of life and the prohibitions against killing or maiming civilians are principles firmly enshrined in international humanitarian law, international human rights law and international jurisprudence. The prohibition of violence to civilians, including children, in particular murder, mutilation, cruel treatment and torture is a principle of customary international law, with universal applicability in all situations of armed conflict.

            “They made us do it” is not a way around those laws.

            All you’re saying is that, to you, it’s fine for the IDF to kill every single child in Gaza as long as someone has to pay the price for it in court later.

                If there is no limit to the number of children you kill to ensure your nation is protected, maybe it isn’t worth protecting.

                    I see, so now you are saying that the children being killed are calling for the eradication of Israel.

                    Does this include the babies?
