Lol as of Israel deserves the respect of other people following laws for it. Fuck Israel.

It makes no sense to me that your title fits so perfectly, but the perfect simplicity made me laugh.

They absolutely should open the investigation tho. All war criminals, no matter if Israeli or Iranian belong in prisons, not governments.

Except cluster bombs are not against the Geneva conventions. Though any weapon can break the Geneva conventions if intentionally aimed at civilians or some other situations.

They absolutely should not. One sided enforcement is worse than no enforcement for perception of justice and stabilizing geopolitical norms.

Wtf? I said both sides should be investigated. Iran and Israel. I didnt say anything about one sided investigation.

Zionists are and always have been above the law, and therefore protecting them with it before the century backlog of prosecutions and executions is finished-not started, finished- would just be bullshit.

The trials of iranian criminals would conclude quickly with evidence, and the courts would fuck off for whichever season and forget to come back before prosecuting any zionist terrorists, ot prosecute one zionist for each iranian, when there are thousands of zionist war criminals for every iranian.

There can be no justice while zionist terrorists roam free. Live an outlaw, die an outlaw.

Are 2000 pounder JDAM dropped on gazan civilian buildings more moral than a cluster bomb?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 weeks ago

It depends on who sold it to them. If it was one president, centrists love it. If it's another president, they still love it but have to pretend they don't so they can blame people to their left.

The moral calculus of bombs is a truly fucked up thing.

If the JDAM is driving a single conventional warhead, it is more ethical than a cluster bomb.

It is common for some of the cluster bomblets to not detonate creating unknown minefields that persist for decades. A single bomb only goes off once.

(This is the ethics of the bomb, not the conflict they're used in)

Okay but if it hits a full apartment building, 100% of that bomb goes to killing unaware civilians.

Which is the whole reason cluster munitions are bad.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Any weapon fired at a civilian is a war crime. It doesn't matter what kind of munition was used. The problem with cluster bombs is that the shooting party, cannot control the result. Signatories of IHL have a responsibility to minimize damage to civilian people and assets. The same reason autonomous weapons are a huge ethical problem.

And im saying: is firing indiscriminately with no regard to hitting civilians, now or in 50 years, worse than trying to make sure 100% of a bomb kills as many civiliams and as much of their infrastructure as possible?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Neither is worse, they both suck just as bad.

[–] [email protected] -5 points 2 weeks ago

Okay hut what if one of the civilians is a white jewish man, and the other is a persian muslim woman? Killing the jewish guy is worse, right?

Excuse me, the preferred nomenclature is "hamas bunkers" and I'll report you to the ADL if you continue with your antisemitism.

Most unnecessary /s ever.
