ozimoron Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 1 minute ago, Danny Australia said: Exclusive: Nearly half of the Israeli munitions dropped on Gaza are imprecise ‘dumb bombs,’ US intelligence assessment finds | CNN Politics The sad image you have posted, along with numerous others like it on the internet, serves as evidence of the consequences when Israel employs dumb bombs with complete disregard for the safety of innocent civilians. Not sure who is dumb here, the bomb or the war criminal who use them in the first place. Even dumb bombs dropped with modern bomb aiming equipment are relatively accurate. These bombs were dropped deliberately where they landed. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The human cost is immense, with countless lives lost and entire communities shattered. What makes him an expert a credible opinion on that?

Is this carpet bombing? Blowing up a tunnel network? It leaves a lot of destruction that's for sure but carpet bombing.................... The IDF releases footage showing a Hamas tunnel in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis, used to attack and kill three soldiers several days ago, being destroyed in a large explosion.

No, that's not carpet bombing. Odd that you can't tell that all by yourself. You've presumably seen enough photos of actual carpet bombing in Gaza.

The term area bombing refers to indiscriminate bombing of an area and also encompasses cases of carpet bombing, including obliteration bombing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carpet_bombing Your link does not have that sentence.

placeholder Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 In the latest report from the IDF it was noted that the killing of the first 2 hostages did not violate their rules of engagement. In other words, it's OK to kill 3 half naked men carrying a white flag. Maybe that does comport with international law? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you cite the claim that it "did not violate their rules of engagement" In publishing the results of its final probe into the issue, the IDF said that despite the soldiers clearly violating the rules of engagement – by firing on persons who presented no immediate danger and were waving a white flag – the enormous complexity of the circumstances led to no immediate punishment. IDF sources suggested that once the war was over it was possible that disciplinary or other action might theoretically be taken against some of the soldiers involved, but in the meantime the soldiers are being left to continue to fight in the field. https://www.jpost.com/israel-hamas-war/article-779923 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The snipers who saw 3 men naked from the waist up (in order to show they weren't wearing explosive vests) and waving a white flag acted rightly according to the best of their understanding? So the rules exist but when they're violated it's not a violation? It is to laugh. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
