@emptywheel Do you think we should recognize Taliban’s shadow government? Do you not consider Hamas a terror org because of 2006 election? -
@EliLake Those are entirely different questions. Do you think Israel's repeated killing of civilians in shelter counts as a war crime? -
@emptywheel I think it’s a tragedy, but if Israel is found to be returning fire then it’s not a war crime. -
@EliLake And if they're not? And if they're violating obligations as occupying power?
