So, that justifies killing civilians?

[–] 14th_cylon@lemm.ee 26 points 1 year ago (2 children)

no, that justifies invading a hospital

[–] PhlubbaDubba@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

Tbf you'd have to invade the hospital to clear out the Hamas fighters using it as a base, especially if they were forcing it on the hospital staff

That or lay siege to it but uh... that'd be about as effective as issuing another round of sanctions on Iran at this point.

Ok, think it though. What happens when you bomb and invade a hospital filled with civilians?

[–] 14th_cylon@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

you think it through. what is the alternative?

Prove that you didn't edit your comment

[–] 14th_cylon@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

that is not how it works. you are making a claim, you have to prove it.

Can't think of an alternative to killing civilians and can't prove they're not a lier. Nice.

That's literally war. Become a general/propose a way to kill /apprehend people that look like civilians while hiding in civilian places
