You're seriously saying "they deserve the 'eye-for-an-eye' treatment" while Israel is actively escalating the conflict?

I have never defended genociders

Oh okay. So where have I done that? In assuming that 3000 civilians who were harmed weren't exclusively Hezbollah? Which would be an utterly ridiculous claim seeing how many literal children there are involved.

So.. you've never defended genociders. Then let's see if you will. Is Israel committing a genocide in Gaza?

You think only military personnel were killed in WW2?

I've actually been in the military and have had training on what is and isn't legal to do in armed conflict. Have you?

Rule 12. Definition of Indiscriminate Attacks

Rule 12. Indiscriminate attacks are those: (a) which are not directed at a specific military objective;

(b) which employ a method or means of combat which cannot be directed at a specific military objective; or

(c) which employ a method or means of combat the effects of which cannot be limited as required by international humanitarian law; and consequently, in each such case, are of a nature to strike military objectives and civilians or civilian objects without distinction.
