Completely indefensible for Hamas to be anywhere near a hospital containing civilians. Completely indefensible for Israel to bomb that hospital. Monsters fighting monsters.
When elephant fight, the grass suffer.
If a hospital is being used as a staging point for military forces, it’s a legitimate military target. That’s why militarizing hospitals is wrong.
Israel knows it’s a war crime but they try to use a loophole by crying out about Hamas tunnels etc.
Under international humanitarian law, hospitals and other medical facilities are considered to be protected civilian objects. Unless they are used for military purposes, they shall be protected at all times and may not be the object of attack.
So that’s why they’re so happy to show us some 9 rusty old weapons. Witnesses say they stripped and tortured 9 men already inside the hospital… I wanna make a bet here they found shit and are now torturing people to find shit. They blacked out communications so they even dig those tunnels themselves to show us for all we know.
Also I would like to point out that they don’t allow outside sources in to confirm, investigate or even verify all their claims. So it’s not true until they do that for me personally. I don’t care what Daniel from IDF ‘claims’, I want it verified by unbiased sources.
So you admit that they are legitimate targets.
Maybe AFTER there is legitimate proof provided, verified by independent outside sources instead of just ‘IDF says.’ Nothing they say after the last month of indiscriminate killings will be believed. They’re met with the same kind of criticism and disdain the Hamas military brigades get.
Even then, patients and civilians still have the right to be evacuated in a humane way and timespan.
