And they forgot the entire perfidy war crime: https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/report-special-forces-posed-as-displaced-gazans-moving-into-building-where-hostage-held/
Just like when they raided a hospital dressed as medical personal.
Ugh how long is their war crimes list at this point?
The “beautiful” thing about perfidy is that it’s a particularly well defined war crime and it’s relatively easy to prove in the era of cameras everywhere.
This was a ruse of war, which is entirely permitted:
https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/customary-ihl/v2/rule57
What isn’t permitted is fighting in civilian clothes, but if you read the article, there is nothing indicating that they did. It is entirely legal to move about and set up an attack in civilian clothes, provided they are discarded immediately before striking.
The article says:
Eyewitnesses tell Asharq that beside the disguised troops, other special forces snuck into the Nuseirat camp inside an aid truck. The IDF has denied using humanitarian transports for the operation.
From the link you posted, it seems this would still be a war crime if it’s true, unless I’m misinterpreting the text:
Ruses of war are permitted. Warships and auxiliary vessels, however, are prohibited from launching an attack whilst flying a false flag and at all times from actively simulating the status of protected vessels such as hospitals ships, small coastal rescue craft or medical transports.
I assume the aid truck they were using would qualify as an “auxiliary vessel”, and they were using it to impersonate “medical transport”.
Disgusting.
What’s far more disgusting is stalking me after I called you out.
lol get over yourself. I didn’t stalk you. lemmy ain’t that active and we both clearly have a common ground in wanting to voice political opinion. I just happen speak out against propaganda while you shill for izzy and the feds. I hope they are at least paying you.
For clarity on what is actually disgusting though, dressing up like you are going to provide aide to suffering people only to murder them is gross as fuck. Even if it were “legal”, which it isn’t.
I have seen a lot of reports of direct US involvement on this one. Hopefully not true but I would not be surprised at all at this point.
Israel keeps
poundingmurdering people in Gaza as Palestinian death toll in hostage rescue raid rises to 274.That feels a tad more honest.
