Here are the general rules protecting civilians from attack.

Article 51*[ Link ]*-- Protection of the civilian population

Protocol Additional to the Geneva Conventions of 12 August 1949, and relating to the Protection of Victims of International Armed Conflicts (Protocol I), 8 June 1977.

"1. The civilian population and individual civilians shall enjoy general protection against dangers arising from military operations. To give effect to this protection, the following rules, which are additional to other applicable rules of international law, shall be observed in all circumstances." 2. The civilian population as such, as well as individual civilians, shall not be the object of attack. Acts or threats of violence the primary purpose of which is to spread terror among the civilian population are prohibited.3. Civilians shall enjoy the protection afforded by this Section, unless and for such time as they take a direct part in hostilities."

Article 50 says exactly the opposite to what Zionist posters here claim it says .

Here, it is, one more time.

"3. The presence within the civilian population of individuals who do not come within the definition of civilians does not deprive the population of its civilian character.

Article 50*[ Link ]*-- Definition of civilians and civilian

I challenge Zionists here to show me a provision that makes targeting of civilians lawful.

 

[Alfalfa]

Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that most pro-Palestinian posters call America a terrorist nation?

I never have, nor have I noticed "most" pro-Palestinian posters doing so.

Then you're blind.

I only see a couple "pro-palestinian" posters, the rest are critics of zionism.

Big difference but I doubt a jew/israeli/zionist would notice.

Here is the law prohibiting indiscriminate attacks, Amnesty and HRW and others frequently identify Israeli violations of this rule. The rocket attacks of Palestinian groups launching rockets into Israel violate this rule, assuming we accept they are always so crude they are incapable of distinquishing between civilians and military targets.

"4. Indiscriminate attacks are prohibited. Indiscriminate attacks area) those which are not directed at a specific military objective;(b) those which employ a method or means of combat which cannot be directed at a specific military objective; or(c) those which employ a method or means of combat the effects of which cannot be limited as required by this Protocol; and consequently, in each such case, are of a nature to strike military objectives and civilians or civilian objects without distinction."

Sherri the "lawyer" trying to be more of a comedian:

"4. Indiscriminate attacks are prohibited. Indiscriminate attacks area) those which are not directed at a specific military objective;(b) those which employ a method or means of combat which cannot be directed at a specific military objective;"

Wow, isn't that basically ALL the Palestinians ever do? Or are you so sick and pathetic that you cannot see how blatantly they totally violate and disregard these laws?

No need to answer.

 

[Hollie]

Sherri appears to represent that the international laws she claims apply to Israel don't apply to the "Palestinian" Arab terrorists.

As long as both sides can justify and excuse the deaths of civilians, the deaths of civilians will continue.

Any army that can make light of and celebrate such carnage and killing with youtube videos and T-shirts and facebook boasting while command looks the other way maintains the lowest of standards and their rules of engagement are laughable, but I will let P.F. Tinmore and Sherrimunnerlyn and others tell you about the Samouni family and Iman al-Hams or the shelling of Qana and the cluster bombs that litter the fields in southern Lebanon and on and on and on.

America was outraged when a marine posted a video where he allegedly threw a puppy off a cliff and command discharged that marine. We treat animals with greater compassion and justice than you and your hallowed IDF treat innocent children.

Maybe someday, someone will sieze your assets to pay for those innocents killed in part because of your support. We are snifing down that trail with the precedents set by Judge Moslowitz's decision, aren't we?
