Israel (now broader Mid East discussion)

I don't understand this whole "war crimes" concept. I never have.

A war is made of continuous criminal acts so to speak. It's what it is. Speaking of "war crimes" is kind of like saying "war-war."

Why would one say the word "war" twice?
Now that's a philosophical rabbit hole with some twists and turns. I love the idea conceptually, especially if the end result was that we would end the madness of killing one another in favor of trying to maximize the laughter of children.

But, in the end, we're just flawed animals with a larger brain pan, who sheet, piss, procreate and eventually die, and rules, even those nonsensically intended to regulate our killing of one another, have some subjective value, I think.
