Using human shields makes you a war criminal. Attacking someone using human shields does not technically make you a war criminal, because it does not endanger civilians without furthering your "just" goal of killing that war criminal.
Please correct me if I am wrong. You still should consider if killing the war criminal is worth the cost and this does not mean civilians had it coming by any means.
The Geneva convention is pretty clear on this. The presence of civilians doesn't render certain points or areas immune from military operation.
Hamas knows exactly what they're doing and what the consequences are. Peace will come when Arabs love their children as much as they hate Jews.
That is true, but it also stipulates that while they remain military targets, that extreme measures must be taken to minimize civilian casualties.
So while you can still try to get the terrorists, you can't just bomb the entire thing, or fill the theatre with poison gas killing a ton of the civilians (as happened in Russia).
Yeah.... It's like strapping bombs of civilians but giving the enemy the trigger.
Both sides are fucked up. No justifying one or the other.
