Israel sabotages pagers ordered by a terrorist group specifically for use in coordinating terrorist attacks ? DAMN those sneaky Jews!
/Weaponizing Pagers Violates International Law and May Be a War Crime, UN Rights Chief Says
Volker Türk, the U.N. high commissioner for human rights, claims that the pager attacks using Hezbollah electronics not only "violated international human rights law" but also appear to violate international humanitarian law’s key principles in carrying out attacks: "distinction between civilians and combatants, proportionality, and precautions."
“We need only look at the Palestinian freedom fighters’ tactics to see the difference here” , Mr. Türk explained to FWIW. “Hamas and Hezbollah do make a distinction between civilians and combatants: they target only the former. The October 6 massacre? Young music lovers only — the few Israeli soldiers who died were accidental deaths, unfortunate victims who happened to be where they weren’t supposed to be, attending a music festival when they should have been in their barracks.
“The same principle was followed when the Hezbollah shot randomly-aimed Iranian rockets into that Druze playground killed 12 children — no Jew soldiers there, so any deaths were expected to be, and were, Druze civilians, wherever the rockets found them. This is how war is properly conducted; openly, not by using sneaky tricks .
“And look: even your country’s most distinguished statesmen agree with us. Your Bernie Sanders and Miss Occasionally- Cortez have labeled this a war crime, a violation of the international law that prohibits the humiliation and embarrassment of enemy combatants. They demand an investigation, we demand more — we demand justice for Ahmad and his brothers in terror!”
