[Hermit 1] It should be noted that during the recent incursions, numerous reports of the rooftop watertanks being used as targets for tank, helicopter and machine gun fire were made.
[Hermit 1] These articles from Mermaid (thanks Mermaid) should make it very clear why this was done.
[Joe Dees] Could they have also been used to conceal Palestinian snipers?
[Nurgle] Irrelevent.
[Nurgle] The IDF is now depriving the people of an essential resource (water, in a
dessert-like environment).
[Nurgle] How would people react is someone like Mogabe started burning down fields of essentials crops just because there way a tiny chance of rebels lying low in
them?
[Hermit 2] And again contravening Protocol IV. But nobody has even slapped them for this or any of their other numerous treaty contraventions in the past, and Israel is gambling (probably correctly) that the US having tossed the Geneva Convention overboard itself, doesn't want anyone looking at it too closely.
