You're trying really really hard to victim blame in this thread. Cut if the fuck out.

    Understanding a situation is different from excusing it.

    I agree. That's not what you're doing, however.

    Seeing as that is not derived from my actual words: Do you work for the thought police?

    See also another comment where someone points out that USA does the same thing with schools in their own military compounds and I went away to fact check it only to come back with a citation proving they were right.

    Does that sound like someone trying to understand what is happening or someone who is stubbornly pushing an agenda?

    Your words:

    Including the Iranians who put the school there.

    ...are literally trying to force others to include the victims in the blame for this incident.

    It's your words I'm policing. If that's not what you thought, you were repeatedly horrendous at communicating it.

    That was a war crime on the part the IRGC already. Fact. Geneva convention as cited. Did you know that? Now you certainly do. Nothing horrendous about me teaching you if you didn't know.

    There are two reasons that tragedy occurred.

    Then someone pointed out that USA Military does the same all over the place. Did you know that? Now you do. I accepted that made the US position worse.

    IRGC killed civilians with a missile even when there was no military target nearby. https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2026/03/israel-irans-missile-strike-that-killed-nine-civilians-must-be-investigated-as-a-war-crime-new-investigation/

    It seems IRGC backed Hezbollah killed Druze kids in a soccer field with an Iranian rocket. However it also seems there was a military target nearby (which would be a war crime on the part of Israel).

    I am interested in the complexities. You clearly are not but please stop bullying others who wish to learn.

    PS If we are going to be "literal" then you are objectively wrong. The victims were innocent civilians however I was apportioning some of the blame to the IRGC.
