Amazon delivers to Gaza?
I would imagine every hospital has some guns and gear by now… if someone comes in wounded you just treat them and deal with alleged crimes later. Some terrified hospital housekeeper, nursing assistant or orderly is probably tasked with locking up weapons and gear in some room until they can figure out what the F to do with it.
Do you know how to safely dispose of ammunition and grenades? Because I sure as hell dont.
Mazel Tov! Now the deaths of those 5000 Palestinian children is totally justified!
9 rifles. They would have taken down the Israeli military!
And there’s no telling where they came from. For all we know the hospital staff took them off wounded/dead Hamas and didn’t know what to do with it.
Also, why are the cans of WD40 laid out like some kind of military supply? I mean, it has its uses, but, like pretty much every home in America probably has a can (or something similar.)
I would hope doctors wouldn’t put metallic things in their MRI room though.
Why not? It’s probably shut down to save power
If it was a huge control center, then it’d been there for years and Israel was attacking to get rid of it. There wouldn’t be any metallic objects there. It is an MRI room, a huge hospital uses those a lot.
The MRI machines are spun down- which is how that guy in the tweeted video showing “what they found” Was able to go into that room at all. Probably because they’re power hogs and they’re a bitch to spin back up, even when shut down “properly”.
Also, that guy was a Lt. Colonel. Like. Wtf? Did he watch too much cops growing up? Cuz, you know. Getting some heavy “We found this weed and a pipe on him. It’s worth 500 bucks on the street but now, it’s 20 years in prison. [pans to a couple buds in a sandwich baggie]” vibes.
hi fuglyduck! (◕▿◕✿)
you do realise that hamas killed thousands, right? :3
my dead baby is more dead than your dead baby!
you just gotta love Lemmy coming to the defense of literal war-criminals
you guys do realize that using a Hospital as a Military Base is a war crime, right? And that also means that all this bombing that you decried as warcrimes actually weren’t warcrimes as they were legitimate military targets.
Intentionally launching an attack in the knowledge that such attack will cause incidental loss of life or injury to civilians or damage to civilian objects or widespread, long-term and severe damage to the natural environment which would be clearly excessive in relation to the concrete and direct overall military advantage anticipated;
This is a war crime whether or not it was a “military target.”
Intentionally using starvation of civilians as a method of warfare by depriving them of objects indispensable to their survival, including wilfully impeding relief supplies as provided for under the Geneva Conventions;
Doesn’t matter if it’s a military target here either. The lack of supplies killed people.
If I’m missing something here please explain. I am not attacking you or saying Hamas doesn’t commit war crimes or anything of the sort. I am simply confused as to why people say this when it doesn’t seem (to me) to be the case.
When you are in an asymmetric conflict with a foe 100x as powerful, you dont give a shit if they say “hey that’s against the rules! you have to stand out in the open where we can kill you clean!” The American revolutionaries were called cowards and terrorists for staging guerilla attacks instead of marching clean lines of soldiers into battlefields in bright coats. They didn’t care either.
Israel practices collective punishment upon all Palestinians and is currently attacking the country. If nine men were guarding that hospital with these nine rifles, they were probably quite welcome there.
This little table of small arms is supposed to convince us they’d turned the hospital into a base? Get the fuck outta here.
One side committing war crimes doesn’t justify the other side committing war crimes. Everyone knows Hamas isn’t following the rules. If they did they wouldn’t have blown the wall and murdered swaths of civilians. That doesn’t justify murdering more civilians.
Yep. Hamas isn’t following the rules. If you want people to follow the rules you have to give them something to lose. We can’t expect laws to govern people with no legal status of any kind living in a non-country with zero rights.
