      Legally speaking, it ceases to be a Hospital the moment military command is happening there. Yeah, people are being treated, but if there’s a legitimate military target, its a military target and no longer a Hospital.

      Don’t like it? Then get the United Nations to write a new Geneva Convention. Rules are rules.


      That’s why its incredibly important to keep civilians and military separated. US Builds a Military base over here, far away from civilians, to make everyone 100% clear what is, or isn’t, a legitimate target. Uniforms, etc. etc. all play a role in this.

        it’s immoral whether you think the rules say it’s ok or not.

          Cool. So we have a conflict where everyone ignores the conventions. As what’s going on right now. Glad we’re on the same page here.

          Methinks that will do worse for Gaza though. Hamas was in a position where they should have followed the conventions more, for the protection of their own civilians.

              What the fuck are you on about mate?

              Hamas is against the two state solution as well. Not even they want two-states. Do you know anything about this conflict?

                  I generally speaking, don’t block people. Presumably you’re talking to me because you want the discussion to continue?

                    not really. ideally you’d realize you’re wrong, apologize, edit all your genocide-justifying comments, and stop responding.

                Of course they don’t, this has become a meme conflict with people fully ignoring reality.

                The arguments people make to excuse Hamas make it incredibly clear that they’re not even slightly interested in reality, they’re trying to make weird logical traps as if they can magicly obscure the reality àn organisation with soldiers trained and funded by Iran and other islamist organisations is hellbent on the total direction of Israel and is doing absolutely atrocious things to try and achieve those goals.

                If they had to continually hope the rockets getting fired at their house every day don’t get through then they wouldn’t be sitting back saying ‘oh they’re not technically a terrorist organisation and not technically a nation state so we should just let them carry on trying to kill us’

                I’m not saying everything Israel have ever done is good or that there aren’t bad Israelies but the situation is painfully complex and pretending it isn’t just makes people look dumb
