Which country’s military? Because I’m more than willing to bet your country has killed innocents too, even if by accident
Finland. Go ahead and dig dirt. We have such a cruel and bloody history and we never do what we say or listen to laws. /S
I see you weren’t the reading comprehension guy in the military. But since you need it directly spelled out for your crayon eating ass to understand - yes, the Israeli government is committing genocide
You don’t seem to understand what reading comprehension is, nor understand the existence of people who absolutely refuse to admit to Israel’s warcrimes. Like the war crime they committed with this indiscriminate bombing, which can’t be limited as international law requires.
International law is international law. And Israel is breaking it.
Edit oh and I’m not **ex-**military until I’m 60. Also, I was the company’s quartermaster, which very much is a reading job for the most part.
Finland. Go ahead and dig dirt. We have such a cruel and bloody history and we never do what we say or listen to laws.
Finnish Civil war of 1918. No country is without sin. That’s not even getting into the Jaeger unit issues that existed in WW2 and the soldiers who kept working and then later joined the Nazis even afterwards.
Btw, why didn’t you answer the trolley problem, coward? Because those are the kind of situations that can arise in conflict.
“No country is without sin” *mentions a civil war*
Wow, yeah, having struggled for our independence more than 100 years ago is what you’re going with with this whataboutism, when we’re discussing WAR CRIMES?
Wow what a great argument, definitely showed me my place, yeah. /S
Why didn’t I answer your garbage attempt at rhetoric? Because you’re ignoring actual international law to defend Israel’s despicable attack on civilians. Something my country has NEVER done.
War is war, civil or not. I also mentioned WW2 since Finland did ally with the Nazis.
No, I’m giving you a moral dilemma to show you your own hypocrisy. Injuring thousands of Hezbollah members will save lives too - these are the people firing missiles at civilians as well (unless you’re saying every Israeli is guilty, in which that says a lot more about how ducked up you are if true).
Hence I gave you a similar scenario. Because if the tables were turned - if someone managed to explode Netanyahu and co’s phones and kill him, you’d probably be cheering even if children died, because it would mean a genocidal war would be halted.
You prefer the few rather than the greater good. And that always leads to more death rather than less. And quite frankly, makes you a shit military member to boot. Because it means if Russia did attack Finland, you’d prefer Putin alive if the opening for taking him out would kill a few innocents - even though letting him live would mean many more dying.
None of this exonerates Israel btw - an evil accidentally doing a net good doesn’t stop that evil from being evil. But Hezbollah taking such a heavy hit with very few bystander casualties is a best case scenario, because the alternative - doing nothing - would have eventually led to more deaths.
Youre ignoring actual international law and think your 12th grade philosophy rhetoric is some fucking gotcha?
War isn’t war crimes. I shouldn’t have even engaged with this shitty whataboutism, but it’s so laughable this is honestly entertaining. “War is war”. Weirdly we’ve never had to resort to bombing civilians? The only thing you can manage to find is “you had a civil war and you got support from Germany (before having a war with them), thus you’re just as morally bad as anyone who voluntarily massacre children, like Israel.”
We weren’t allies with Germany. You think that can’t be true, since you know WWII history. But what you don’t realise is you don’t understand that like warcrimes, “ally” also has a definition. We were not allies with Nazis, we we’re cobelligerents. Until we had to have a war with the fuckers cause they weren’t happy with us not being in thrall to them. The fuckers burned Lappland.
if someone managed to explode Netanyahu and co’s phones and kill him, you’d probably be cheering even if children died, because it would mean a genocidal war would be halted.
I don’t have anything better to do rn, so I might as well. This is absolutely moronic. No, I wouldn’t be fucking cheering at anyone’s death, and Netanyahu dying wouldn’t even realistically stop the genocides, because why the fuck would it? Do you think he’s the sole person pushing everyone else to do something they loathe? You haven’t heard the “we’re fighting human animals” from Israel’s defense minister?
War is allowed. War crimes are not. How is this hard for you to understand? And how is it you honestly still cling to your, “every country has blood on their hands” and comparing mother fucking Finland to Israel, trying to equate them because we fought for our independence literally more than a century ago, and did no war crimes in the process.
How is that even remotely comparable to sending off bombs to be exploded in population centers with children?
Like how fucked up do you have to be to even be able to think that?
Also you: well war isn’t that bad, it’s war crimes that are bad!
Also, failing reading comprehension again, but to be fair English is your second language. I said Netanyahu and co., as in company, as in also the defense minister. Yes, that would manage to stop the genocidal war, because the rabid leadership that wants it would be dead, and politically they would have to scramble in order to maintain majority coalition.
How is that even remotely comparable to sending off bombs to be exploded in population centers with children?
For someone in the military you really don’t seem to understand how modern warfare works, at all. A lot of modern warfare is urban now, not in fields - you know, places where non-combatants are. This is why Finland also offers civilian support training as an option for the mandatory regimen - such as learning how to build defences in city streets. **Even regular war occurs where there are children in modern times.**Even in ancient times. Hence, war is war. Children die in war, and your thick ass skull doesn’t seem to get the root issue is war itself. War crimes are the ugliest thing of war, but war itself is already terrible.
Secondly, this wasn’t just “sending off bombs to be exploded”. This was a directed supply chain attack - it’s not like grenades or rockets were just launched at city streets. They specifically infiltrated Hezbollah, convinced then to use Walkie Talkies and gave them tainted ones, that seemed to have also been tapped , then convinced them to use pagers as an extra precaution and gave them tainted ones too, then detonated those first rather than the walkie talkies to make them think the first form of communication was safe, then the walkie talkies. These were items designed to be carried around by the enemy, not indiscriminate bombing, and designed to disrupt and slow down their comms. Even without killing, it has incapacitated a huge amount of the enemy, and made them easier to identify by cross referencing hospital records with other Intel.
That is vastly different than what you imply. This if anything resulted in the least amount of casualties, considering the enemy combatants are mostly non-uniformed, and rarely attack directly in a front line.
Could you come up with a better way to deal with a zealot theocratic group also intent on genocide that fires missiles remotely and indiscriminately constantly at the general population that isn’t directly starting a war in another country? Of course, you’ll ignore this question just like every other thing I brought up that’s extremely inconvenient for you to answer.
That’s why I also brought up Finland and the Nazis - the Nazis just happen to be fighting the Soviets at the time didn’t make the Nazis good, did it? Same here with Mossad fighting Hezbollah.
Ukraine isn’t a bad nation for defending itself against Russia.
Israel is a garbage nation for the pathetic attacks they commit and the genocides they pull.
“I said AND COMPANY”
No you didn’t, and we’re on Lemmy, where it’s beyond simple to look at your edit history
For someone in the military you really don’t seem to understand how modern warfare works, at all
Or maybe you’re an arrogant child, speaking out of their ass?
I’ve actually had training on fighting urban warfare. Training which included international law that’s related.
Have you?
No. All you’ve done is suck the fat dick of Israeli propaganda. If you had the knowledge that I do, you’d cringe at pathetic these attempts at “rhetoric” are.
Israel is doing crimes against humanity.
it’s not like grenades or rockets were just launched at city streets
No, this was way less targeted. Israel had zero idea who would end up near the devices even in the completely imaginary scenario where their information is perfect and every pager goes to Hezbollah, as you won’t be able to know where the bombs are when you detonate them.
Weird how international law experts agree with me — a person who received even rudimentary info on international law — and not with any of you pushing the “Israel did nothing wrong” side.
Isn’t that weird? Almost as if all you’ve got is propaganda and lies.
We got actual laws (which Israel has agreed to, as a member of the UN)
Oh and I’m not ignoring any your third-grade rhetoric because it’s “hard to answer”, but because I’m all out of accommodating children for the week. Seeing you being serious with your rhetoric, with that level of rhetoric? I can’t even describe it, really. I mean, do you know the feeling you get when you watch toddlers imitating adults, really earnestly? They’re all serious in the face, they don’t understand how cute and silly they’re being? That’s how I feel about your rhetoric. You don’t understand how simple and childish it is.
Finland. Go ahead and dig dirt. We have such a cruel and bloody history and we never do what we say or listen to laws. /S
