    Can you cite which one you think is a violation?

    Also cite the corresponding rule you think was violated ?

    Civilians getting killed is not an automatic violation of any rules.

        Are you going for points by adding nothing to the discussion ? Do you think you added any value by trying to throw out a worthless quip?

        In what way is there a war crime? In the article they clearly show there wasn’t a war crime.

      Can’t speak for him, but off the top of my head…

      Article 49 of the 4th Geneva convention accords:

      49: Individual or mass forcible transfers, as well as
      deportations of protected persons from occupied territory to the
      territory of the Occupying Power or to that of any other country,
      occupied or not, are prohibited, regardless of their motive.

      Nevertheless, the Occupying Power may undertake total or
      partial evacuation of a given area if the security of the population or
      imperative military reasons so demand. Such evacuations may not
      involve the displacement of protected persons outside the bounds of
      the occupied territory except when for material reasons it is
      impossible to avoid such displacement. Persons thus evacuated shall
      be transferred back to their homes as soon as hostilities in the area
      in question have ceased.

      The Occupying Power undertaking such transfers or evacuations
      shall ensure, to the greatest practicable extent, that proper
      accommodation is provided to receive the protected persons, that
      the removals are effected in satisfactory conditions of hygiene,
      health, safety and nutrition, and that members of the same family
      are not separated.

      The Protecting Power shall be informed of any transfers and
      evacuations as soon as they have taken place.
      The Occupying Power shall not detain protected persons in an
      area particularly exposed to the dangers of war unless the security
      of the population or imperative military reasons so demand.
      The Occupying Power shall not deport or transfer parts of its
      own civilian population into the territory it occupies.

      I don’t hate Israel, in fact I think it is in America’s best interest to protect our spy network assets. Though, I will not stand for people making misleading statements about war crimes. We can do better.

        I don’t see how 49 has anything to do with air strikes.

        49 is about moving people from an occupied area.

          I don’t see how 49 has anything to do with air strikes.

          It has to do with an active warzone or areas hitherto, which Israel just declared.

          Keep in mind, I am not even looking at their past, I am looking at the here and now and seeing what they are doing,

          49 is about moving people from an occupied area.

          Which Hamas currently… occupies… the southern part of Israel.

          Unless Israel is just fighting civilians, then we have a whole other set of war crimes.
