OTOH with today’s precision weapons hitting civilian areas actually indicates explicit targeting of civilians.
War crime.
First, we don’t know that there were no military in the targeted buildings.
Second, so called civilians produce the resources to sustain an army. They can be fair game so stuff your bleating, libtard war crime cries.
“civilians produce the resources to sustain an army. They can be fair game”
WRONG
Article 25 of the Hague Convention of 1899 laid down that “The attack or bombardment of towns, villages, habitations or buildings which are not defended, is prohibited”.
FURTHER CLARIFIED:
The 1st Protocol of the Geneva Conventions signed in 1977 made it a war crime to launch ‘indiscriminate attacks’ which would affect civilians. This would include area bombing of a city, as opposed to targeting individual objectives within it. Reprisals or terror attacks against civilians were also made into war crimes in 1977.
PLEASE NOTE: The rules of war also included specific requirements such as not attacking hospitals, and if possible giving civilians warning to evacuate or take shelter before military operations began.
