Die Hamas welche den Verpflichtungen aus dem Völkerrecht nicht nachkommt wonach sie sich klar als Kombattanten zu kennzeichnen und Zivlisten nicht als Schutzschilde zu misssbrauchen haben.

Was wäre bitteschön die Alternative?
Die Alternative und rechtlich garnicht mal so falsche Variante wäre das die Kampf gegen die Hamas keinerlei völkerrechtlichen Regeln gelten da die Hamas nicht mal Völkerrechtssubjekt ist und Israel die gefühlte Hälfte aller Konventionen und Abkommen überhaupt nicht unterzeichnete oder nicht mal existierte als diese enstanden.
Aber das muss doch garnicht sein. Die IDF hat die Möglichkeit sich an die Regeln des Kriegsvölkerrechts zu halten, entsprechend sollte sie das auch tun. Und sie tut es ja nun mal auch.

Interessieren tut es aber keinen, nein stattdessen erwartet man das sich die Israelis nicht nur an das Völkerrecht sondern an in 60 Friedensjahren entstandenen europäischen Moralvorstellungen halten.
Das ist absurd.

Das Problem ist folgendes: Der Westen hat sich Moralvorstellungen auferlegt die weit über das Kriegsvölkerrecht hinausgehen und niemals wirklich im Kriege getestet wurden.
Nun wird an jedem der irgendwie "gut" sein soll dieser Maßstab auferlegt. Vollkommen negiert wird dabei der Umstand das man in Europa die letzten 60 Jahre Frieden hatte währen die Israelis 60 Jahre Krieg führen durften.
Man macht es einfach und hebt aus dem friedlichen Europa den moralischen Zeigefinger.

Das Problem ist das Europa meint noch viel höhere Maßstäbe anlegen zu müssen.

Nein, es sind die strammen Antizzionisten die sich hier als Ankläger und Richter in einer Person aufspielen.
Rein rechtlich hast du Recht, man könnte es ablegen. Aber wenn diese Vorwürfe kommen muss man schon darauf verweise dürfen das diese Vorwürfe nach dem geltenden Kriegsvölkerrecht haltlos sind.

Ich sehe nicht was auch heute noch so falsch daran soll das zumindest einzufordern.
Warum wird Israel beschuldigt die armen Palis zu bestrafen wenn sich die Hamas weigert Unschuldige aus dem Kampfgebiet zu entfernen?

US study: IDF didn't violate rules of war
Israel pursued legitimate military objectives in Gaza despite humanitarian cost, study says
WASHINGTON – Israel did not violate the rules of war during its recent Gaza operation, a new US study says, while praising the IDF's "impressive improvements" since the war against Hizbullah in 2006.
Israel "deliberately used decisive force to enhance regional deterrence and demonstrate that it had restored its military edge," wrote Anthony H. Cordesman of the Center for Strategic and International Studies. "These, however, are legitimate military objectives in spite of their very real humanitarian costs."
The study notes that "political efforts to manipulate the "rules of war and humanitarian considerations have become a key weapon in asymmetric warfare, and are often used as a basis for propaganda and gaining political leverage in this type of conflict."
"Real suffering is translated into exaggerated charges and numbers that cannot be validated by reliable data or methodology," the study says. "In practice, even if Israel had agreed to all of the conventions involved, they are severely limited and often difficult or impossible to apply to the realities of war — even one fought with restraint and a focus on military targets."
'Noting new about such tactics'
Cordesman notes that "Some buildings like schools merit special consideration, but only require review to determine whether they are really military targets. Hospitals require warning but are not protected if used by an enemy."
"White phosphorous can be used against military but not civilian targets," he adds, noting that "such laws and conventions do not bind or restrain non-state actors like Hamas in any meaningful way."
"The end result is a situation where one side can potentially be limited by international law where the other is not, and that effectively makes international law a potential weapon for the side that rejects and exploits it," the study says. "It is also a situation that empowers and incentivizes extremists to use civilians as the equivalent of human shields by embedding their forces in civilian populations and areas, and using sensitive buildings like mosques and schools or collocating near them. There is nothing new about such tactics."
