I’m only pointing out the cruel hypocrisy that a missile blowing up a hospital is somehow considered more ethical than a slit throat.

  • When going house to house in a town and murdering everyone inside your goal is murdering civilians

    When bombing a military target and hitting civilians around him, your goal is the military target

    This is both different from an international law as well as a moral standpoint

  • Intentions matter. Bombing a hospital with terrorists operating out of it is a very different act to deliberately and directly targeting civilians for murder and hostage taking.

    • True... but where were the terrorists? Where was the evidence? Apart from the ludicrous 3D animation that was created before Israel destroyed the first hospital, I haven't seen so much as a shred of credible evidence. Oh, apart from the Arabic calendar that was totally a list of hostages.

      Nobody seriously believes that every single hospital in Gaza was a hotbed of terrorist activity, especially without evidence. What we have seen, is the IDF illegally setup bases of operation in Gazan hospitals though!
