At the end of my post, I specifically said: > I don’t believe Israel is committing a genocide against Palestinians in the West Bank. And any charges of Genocide against Palestinians in Gaza is for conduct after oct 7. > What army on earth gives their enemy advance warning before attacking? I don’t know, probably most. But that is no excuse for a genocide. There is no exemptions for international humanitarian laws if you issue a warning before committing the crime. > You can't attack a solider with a lethal weapon and not expect them to attack back. Molotov cocktails are lethal the same way tear gas is lethal. Against a soldier in full riot gear, it is hardly lethal at all. But in fact, I would expect most solders not to kill a teenager throwing a Molotov at them. If a kid throws a Molotov cocktail at a soldier and that soldier reacted by killing that teenager, I would expect that soldier to be charged for a crime and go to prison for killing a non-combatant.
