The UN also presents video to support their claims. What's the difference? Their video is fake?
Are you referring to the incident from 10 years ago? If there's a video and solid evidence of this war crime, I hope the one responsible got punished, but again, I don't see why this is terribly relevant to the war going on right now.
It also should be acknowledged that there's a difference between official idf policy and what soldiers do. I'm fairly confident that in any armed forces one will find unacceptable behavior if they look hard enough. Hamas' atrocities are official policy and strategy.
Amazing how you will excuse the IDF of any awful thing they do. Kill thousands of kids- acceptable losses. Use human shields- the IDF didn't do it, individual soldiers did.
And I'm sure they're burning food for a very good reason. It's probably got bombs in it.
It's against their rules and they're going to be punished for it, so it's unclear to me why you cited this. This is clearly not IDF policy.
It seems like you're trying really hard to establish false equivalency. It's clear to me that although it has its faults, IDF is nothing like Hamas.
It's amazing how you will condemn the IDF for actions that most other militaries in the world would also do if in their position.
Has the IDF ever done anything wrong?
But you're right, I would condemn any military that killed 7000 children in a few weeks.
Most definitely! They tried to cover up the murder of Shireen Abu Akleh and once their lies were revealed, they refused to punish the soldier responsible. I consider that to be pretty abhorrent.
