    It’s literally terrorist 101 to use human shields. This tactic has been used by every insurgency in the last hundred years.

    It’s why it was added as a war crime.

    As for the second one to commit a war crime. If you follow the rules, but your enemy doesn’t, you will lose. This is the international equivalent of the bunch buggy no punch back bullshit that let’s people hit you with no retaliation.

      Well, it’s asymmetrical warfare. It works like that. You want everyone to line up in straight lines across a football field and take turns firing?

      I purpose we have all the world’s nations choose one competitive video game, and then everyone develops their gaming team, then all potential military disputes are settled by a best of five match of the chosen game.

      No wallhax.

        Yes it does work like that, and bombing them anyways is the counter.

        Would be nice if we had an easier way to solve problems, but it’s not realistic.

      Repeating the same lies “human shields” and “terrorist” doesn’t make it true.

        The leader of Hezbollah was confirmed dead in the attack, so clearly they were using human shields… They have been attacking Israel from a foreign country, and are not part of that countries military, which makes them terrorists.

        You don’t like the truth, but lying about it doesnt change the facts of the matter.
