100% agree. Israel has been committing war crimes, and the West (broadly) is thereby complicit. By continuing to support Israel’s genocide for 2½ years, Western democracies have eroded international law to the point of uselessness.
The Geneva conventions are dead in the water, and good luck to anyone who is ever in a war zone in the 21st century. The destruction of civilian infrastructure and disregard for civilian life is now, de facto, acceptable.
International law had generally been toothless.
Great if you like gum jobs.
Friendly reminder that, neither the US or Iran showed any regard for civilian life before the war either, see “drug boat” killings and slaughter of protestors, respectively. And Israel… I can’t even.
weird headline. assuming their readers don’t know to be concerned is weird and unhelpful.
