“The other team gotta learn how to shoot straight” -President Biden , October 2023 , after a Gazan hospital lot was striked.
Imagine if Trump said this. This is very unpresidential. He treated the war and loss of Palestinian life so cavalierly like a video game, and has said nothing to the parents of the 6 year Palestinian boy in Chicago who was killed due to Bidens false beheading comments. I am sure Israelis loved Hamas being referred to as a “team” while they were still picking up rubble and reeling from a vicious attack . What a guy . The only team he needs to worry about is the one feeding him remarks to his ear ala Dubya Bush |
He also lied about it being Hamas. It was the Israelis. |
Even if Israel knew, how is that a war crime? |
That link doesn't list any war crimes. I'm unclear on the definition of murder vs homicide vs manslaughter. It was definitely with intent to kill, but I think it was not with intent to kill the particular victim. So probably murder. |
Where does it say that? This was not the Red Cross, which is explicitly protected, and possibly vehicles with a logo of a red cross. |
Even if it isn't a war crime, intentionally killing an American citizen should elicit a military response. Of course it won't because we have quite possibly the weakest president since Carter and killing Americans isn't something a foreign government fears |
Numerous Red Crescent vehicles and paramedics have been attacked and killed in this war. Two Red Crescent paramedics were killed when their clearly marked ambulance was destroyed when they went to pick up 6 year old Hind Rajab. And this was after the Red Crescent had waited hours to coordinate with Israeli forces and receive permission for their ambulance to travel to her location. |

It's possible there were mistakes made in this bombing (I don't think entirely--I mean, they saw aid trucks leaving the warehouse and thought the "gunmen" were with them, so they were apparently willing to take out aid workers if they could maybe get a Hamas fighter at the same time).
I also think Israel is performing acts of responsibility (aghast, terrible tragedy, fire military people, etc) and making a big deal of them to distract from everything else they refuse to apologize for, or actively support (West Bank atrocities, atrocities by IDF in Gaza, etc) Like when you get caught red handed in the company bank accounts you make a big deal of confessing so nobody will realize you've been skimming for years. |
hi Bibi. |
1977 First Additional Protocol to the Geneva convention. Specific protection is also afforded to medical personnel and facilities; humanitarian personnel and activities; https://www.icrc.org/en/document/ihl-rules-of-war-FAQ-Geneva-Conventions |
The sad thing is I know you’re being serious. You don’t see how it is a war crime to starve millions or kill non combatants including humanitarian workers? |
In the name of Zionism, every crime is justified, there is no end to their bloodlust. |
What do you think constitutes a war crime? Do you think the fact of being in conflict allows you to kill aid workers? Non-combatants? Children? |
