      They were unarmed and getting treatment at the hospital. That’s against international humanitarian law. Several people have linked to this in the thread. I suggest you read them.

          Why do you keep mentioning October 7th? We’re talking about something else and October 7th is not a license to break IHL.

          And no, you are wrong, they are not a legitimate target when unarmed and being treated at a hospital.

              Yeah, well, too bad that the Geneva Convention disagrees with killing people in hospitals that have protected status under IHL.

              If “they broke international law first, so it’s now fine for me to” is a legitimate justification as you say, then Isreals decades of international law violations would make Oct 7th fully legitimate too.
