    Check out the r/worldnews thread. Example:

    So let me get this straight.

    Israel bombs hospitals to target Hamas terrorists. Everyone hates that because of the indirect casualties to civilian lives and direct damage to precious infrastructure.

    Israel then does targeted attacks inside hospitals and ensures only Hamas terrorists die with very minimal damage to anything else. Everyone hates that because “they didn’t do it right.”

    So then how are they supposed to get into hospitals to take these guys down? Is it a free terrorist shelter now? Is everyone inside a hospital safe from retaliation?

    They want praise for only committing like three separate warcrimes instead of blowing up the already occupied hospital.

      Hamas is a non-state group which creates a loophole where this rule does not apply. 🤷‍♂️

        Ah yes, the famous non-state loophole, where you can just shoot people in their hospital beds and it’s not a war crime. Just because someone is not part of a regular state military does not mean they have literally zero rights. Also dressing up as a doctor or nurse is a war crime. The occupation itself is a illegal as well, they shouldn’t even be there.
