Maybe not, but why people ask only to Israel to respect internations laws and the Geneva convention ? The Geneva convention has a series of stipulations and one of them said explicitly that if you don't respect it for your enemy you loose the right to invoke it for yourself.
So, Hamas openly ignore any international law and openly admitted it (Hamas leaders said that they use their civilians as shields to the scope to have everyone pressure Israel) but somehow Israel is the bad guy.
Man, I don't like it, I think it is very sad and nasty, but the more time pass the more I am thinking that all this is the application of the "they fucked around then they found out" applied to the Gazan civilians. Israel left Gaza years ago (10 ? 15?), they had the possibility to elect their government and they choose Hamas, which has in its constitution to destroy Israel, they let Hamas to steal all the international aids. Now they are in the situation to be used as human shield by the same people they elected. Maybe it they wanted to live in peace, they should have choose more wisely...
BTW, I am old enough to remember Palestinian women and children to celebrate the attack on the twin towers back in 2001, so maybe they are not really as innocent as they want to be seen from the others.
If you want people to follow sophistics instead of what they see, then at least those should be consistent.
They didn't choose Hamas, not in any legitimate election. The "they let" part you could also apply to them letting Israel bomb them.
Ultimately they are victims of the Israeli state which blockaded Gaza, killed its inhabitants when it saw fit and at the same time pretends than anything in response to that can be unjust.
Probably standards have changed within generations. Now, we're at a point where younger people feel free to criticize their own military. There are people who hates US military back when Iraq War was a thing that has a beef with IDF. It's more sympathy toward people that did not sign up for combat, and acknowledging that engagement should ever be between combatants. Older people simply don't understand that yet.
Guerrilla Warfare isn't a new concept. Especially when fighting in home territory.
True, but Guerrilla Warfare tactic has its consequences. You use it, you need to be ready to pay the cost.
What a wild way to justify Occupation, Apartheid, and Genocide.
I am not justifying anything, I am only saying that if you make a decision there are consequences.
