…where it specifically says that Hamas fighters find material support and comfort from civilians. To me, that means those civilians effectively ARE Hamas and deserve their full comeuppance for being fucking savages. I was actually on their side pre October 7. Not anymore…at all. They can take their Ghengis Khan methodologies and shove it up their collective asses.

As for other collateral damage, yes, war is hell. Specifically targeting kids, though, I would absolutely agree is a war crime. Killing Hamas fighters and those who support them (which means they are also Hamas) is fully righteous even if there is collateral damage.

Putin specifically targeted a kids hospital…yeah that had no military justification at all. War crime. Hang him.
