Low population areas do to. But you don’t have public transit so as long as you don’t wander into their meth labs you never have to meet them.

Date format that is both human readable and for the most part sortable as strings (assuming you are using the same time zone).

Here, take a fake Internet point.

I think you are overestimating the value of special forces. We kind of mythologize them with our media, but they are not action heroes. You arnt going to send them into a hostile city where Hamas is not in uniform, planned for the retaliation, had time to prepare, and expect them to come out with low casualties.

For example of what this looks like with the US, refer to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Mogadishu_(1993)

Even the US after 9-11 didn’t just send in spec ops after Osama, they went in whole hog. And that was estimated at about 4.5 million casualties all around.

It sucks, but Hamas isn’t going to start wearing uniforms and abiding by the Geneva convention any time soon.

Well it’s kind of open to interpretation, which may be why they didn’t want to directly say that, just imply it.

Article 19 of the Geneva convention:

The protection to which civilian hospitals are entitled shall not cease unless they are used to commit, outside their humanitarian duties, acts harmful to the enemy. Protection may, however, cease only after due warning has been given, naming, in all appropriate cases, a reasonable time limit, and after such warning has remained unheeded.

Now are firing qassam rockets “harmful to the enemy”? Probably.

Has due warning been given? Maybe? It’s not well defined what that means. Does roof knocking count? Do you need to submit a form to their embassy?

I think the big problem is that the kind of warfare we are seeing here is unlike what they saw when they wrote those laws.

Yeah. If we are talking 99-2001ish Napster was king.
