Jesus, is this what passes for logic?

Here's the relevant part of the article. Hint: It's not the fluff quote from the guy being questioned about war crimes.



So, it's not a war crime because Israel doesn't recognize the law. Convenient. Like using cluster bombs.
It's not a war crime, because no one recognizes it as such and it's common convention to use white phosphorous in battle. Like I said before Canada and its allies commonly use it...guess we're all war criminals too.

What the Red Cross wants is not determinative of the issue. The Red Cross would prefer it if there was no war.
