Not a crime. The cannot fill up instantly. The assholes will just have to come out and face capture.

I'm thinking they might be doing it gradually to "flush them out" and not drown them. But that's just a guess on my part.

Miles and miles of tunnels. The water is going to take forever to fill up the entire system.

Salting the land and destroying aquifers aids Israel in the ethnic cleansing of Gaza. The goal is for these people to never be able to return to their homes. If you're wondering if that's a war crime, you should look up the definitions of war crimes.

No. Its fairly humane.

Only if they throw in bars of Irish Spring.

When your land is being used to fire thousands of rockets at civilians in Israel,
maybe you should lose your land.

That's weird because right now Israel's land is being used to rain down slaughter on civilians in Gaza. So by your logic...

Civilians in Gaza were told to GTFO.

 

[skye]

It's not a war crime

but then, breathing is a war crime if Israel does it!

Israel doesn't give a shit anyway! Good for them!

They will do what they have to do and that's destroy Hamas.

 

[Sunni Man]

The Israeli government said Hamas fighters are hiding the jew captives in the tunnels.
So if the Israeli army drowns them are they going to blame Hamas?

And then they were bombed in the area they were sent to by the savages. And after cutting off power, water, electricity, communication; you have to be pretty fucking stupid to think Israel cared if any message made it to the civilians of Gaza.

Gaza rockets are a war crime.
Israel trying to minimize civilian deaths is war.
So, by my logic, yes, the Arabs should lose at least part of Gaza.

If only we could be so lucky. I appreciate your optimism, but i doubt we will get that result.

 

[Godboy]

Because Hamas was there. End of story.

Comedy isnt your thing. You should just stop trying altogether. All of your jokes flop.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

The Israeli government said Hamas freedom fighters are hiding the jew captives in the tunnels.
So if the Israeli army drowns them are they going to blame Hamas?

Only because it would be the fault of Hamas.
