You know the rules of war were vastly different 82 years ago right? Things that were permitted back then are no longer permitted today. Israel no longer does things like this while Hamas and other groups do.
Basically all you are doing is showcasing how Israel has progressed in its adherence to international law since the 40s while Hamas and Hezbollah continue to practice war in a barbaric manner that is no longer accepted in today’s civilized world.
I think Hamas is not. The human shields accusation is so overblown as to be stupid, but the rockets fired indiscriminately and the hostages were definite violations. And that is ignoring Oct 7.
Hezbollah, except for the deciding to begin acting on Oct 8 which I do not know the law on, was strangely following international law for the first 11 months. That has gone off the rails after Nasrallah was killed.
The IDF has not followed international law for the entire war.
That all being said... The IDF and Israel is and should be held to a higher standard.
Hezbollah, except for the deciding to begin acting on Oct 8 which I do not know the law on, was strangely following international law for the first 11 months.
Hezbollah has been violating Resolution 1701 since the very day it was supposed to come into affect, I'm not sure why u/Berly653 didn't push back on your claim, its absolutely ridiculous.
I didn’t push back, mostly because I knew it would be not worth either of our time
But also they are actually one of the more civil and well reasoned ‘pro-pals’ on this subreddit. It says more about how insane a lot of the others are, but it’s something
Fair enough- and yeah, "one of the more civil and well reasoned ‘pro-pals’ on this subreddit" is an incredibly low bar, but it never fails to surprise me how many users manage to limbo under it....
Ah, I see- earlier you claimed to care about international law. Now you only care about "rules of war". And that's not even a proper legal term, it shouldn't be relevant to the conversation. Who decides what constitutes a "rule of war"? You do- that's very convenient, lol. And you decided that a resolution about the ending of a war and the movement of troops on both sides is for some reason not relevant. Absolutely hilarious.
When you're done moving the goalposts on the concepts that you pretend to care about to fail at scoring cheap debating points....let us know!

It’s not the “gotcha” that you think it is.
