If you are naive enough to think that a bombing a "jam-packed refugee camp" was an honest mistake, then I have a bridge to sell you, going very very cheap.
That is an easy way to say you never served in the military.
While movies show the military as a well-oiled machine flawless in execution, in the real world, it is functional chaos.
Mistakes happen.
@wintermute_oregon mistakes don't make it not a war crime bruv
Actually it does.
Can you cite the section of the law violated?
@wintermute_oregon I don't think 'bombing hospitals isn't *technically* a war crime' really makes either you or the people you're defending out to be real heroes.
Shit happens in war.
Maybe we should have fewer
Blowing up buildings and jam-packed refugee camps, knowing fully well that it'll create mass civilian casualties is a war crime. And I'd rather take the word of experts rather than a nobody over this.
Quoting from the article itself
The article quotes a previous article Human Rights Watch: Israeli war crimes apparent in Gaza war
So yeah, brush it off as "Mistakes happen" somewhere else
That isn’t a war crime.
Israel notified the area that war was starting, they told all civilians to flee. They use decision motions and notify the targets they will be hit.
Israel is going out of their way to avoid civilian loses and exceeds the standards of war.
Hamas is hiding in civilian areas which increases the chance of the civilian loses.
Israel isn’t at fault here. They’re trying to destroy legit military targets.
