only a world class moron would say that a terrorist cannot be terrorized by their intended victims at every opportunity. “never let your karma be run over by your dogma. it’s messy and it just makes you look stupid” applies.

But murdering Jews in mass and in every way possible is okay? The UN has to go.

Having UN employees participating in war crimes(Oct 7) might be a war crime.

Why would people opt for pagers and walkie talkies over cell phones?

This is a rhetorical question, btw.

Maybe the UN should consider killing 1,139 innocent people on 10/7 was a War Crime.

>>Pretty sure this is a violation.

Pagers purchased by hezbollah.

Distributed by hezbollah with assigned phone numbers to persons to be able to be contacted by hezbollah.

All those assigned these pagers were hezbollah affiliated.

Why/how is that indiscriminate?

“Lots of folks with no connection to Hezbollah had a pager.”

Lots=handful. Why would any significant number of non-Hezbollah “folks” possess pagers ordered for and distributed to Hezbollah combatants? These pagers were used for military communications. Does the U.S. military hand out secure radios to random citizens?

Cite your socialist or shia muslim source for that BS. Or perhaps you just pulled it outta your ass.

Hezbollah both purchased and distributed the pagers. The general populace had no access to them.

“Let me be clear — this method of warfare may be new and unfamiliar,” Türk said, “but international humanitarian and human rights law apply regardless and must be upheld.”

Dear Volker,

Go Türk yourself.

Sincerely,

Israel
