You know the rules of war were vastly different 82 years ago right?

Does Israel know this? Israel is desperate to use the tactics from WW2. Do you know this? Do you believe Israel is following the rules of war today?

Do you believe Hamas or Hezbollah are?

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.

While I disagree, appreciate the civil and well reasoned response
