That's literally what they're saying out loud now:

On being asked by Ahmad Tibi, one of the Arab MPs within the Israeli Knesset last week if it was legitimate “to insert a stick into a person’s rectum”, Hanoch Milwidsky, a member of Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu’s ruling Likud party, responded: “If he is a Nukhba [Hamas militant], everything is legitimate to do! Everything!”

Well those definitely sound like the words of a person who would decey a warcrime or six /s

I think they would argue Hamas militants are unlawful combatants (they don't follow laws of war) and the Geneva convection doesn't apply.

I find it funny how if you are fighting someone that doesn't follow the laws of war you can not follow them too but you are not in violation, they are!

Especially with how little damage Hamas has been able to do in comparison to the damage the IDF has caused Palestine for decades. Like, if a child hit an adult, no matter how “unlawful” it was, if the adult drop-kicked them into next week that’d be a huge problem. Now, the only people acting like children are in the Israeli government but you get the idea.

It's basic fascist logic. Which as the GOP in the US has shown us, you don't need to be fascist to use. "Our chosen enemy is both cowardly/weak and an existential threat at the same time."

And how if you listen to russia, Ukraine is both a marionette of the West and a secret mastermind orchestrating the worldwide conspiracy

[–] Maggoty@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Which hilariously is also antisemitic while also accusing them of being Nazis.

We really are the root of all evil, huh

Reminds me of 9/11 and the Iraqi war.

3,000 souls for 250,000 souls

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 15 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The Iraqi war wasn't related to 9/11 at all. It was about oil and finishing what daddy started.

[–] pachrist@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

Yeah, but we sure kept Saddam from nuking anyone with his many, many WMDs.
