Murder is against the law in western countries but of someone tries to kill you, you can kill them in self defense.

So yea of someone is committing war crimes against you, you can fo ahead and fight back to get them to stop

War crimes are war crimes, doesn't matter if the other side started them first. Israel is stooping just as low as Hamas is with these tactics, you can and should fight in self defense without targeting Civilians

They don't target civilians. Hamas does.

When you build your headquarters inside a civilian hospital, and that hospital gets bombed, you are to blame for the war crime of positioning your HQ in a civilian hospital, not the person who bombs you.

If you build an HQ in a hospital that's (likely? I'd assume so) a war crime. If your opponent then bombs that hospital to bomb you they are also committing a war crime. Some of you are insane, would you agree with the police shooting hostages because "well they took the hostages first, it's their fault we shot them". Fuck no, you'd cry for whoever did that to go to prison. Just because Hamas is stooping so low does not suddenly make it OK for Israel to stoop just about as low.

I only know the war crimes I was taught about that can plausibly be laid on Jews

Yeah I'm aware. Show me on the doll where ((George Soros)) and the ((globalists)) hurt you.

be laid on Jews

fancy how it always ends up being this according to people defending Israel as rightful. I don't give a shit about Israel being mostly jewish. Should I give them a free war crime pass because they suffered from genocide in the past? That how you think this should work?

I don't care about your beliefs, because you are largely ignorant of the actual situation. I'm calling out the fact that your information sources are blatantly anti-Semitic.

You're just their rube.
