“Error prone” is a funny way to say “Working as designed”
The original article had some really damning lines. Israel is beyond barbaric they try to bomb suspects inside of their family homes instead of trying to target active combatants
“We were not interested in killing [Hamas] operatives only when they were in a military building or engaged in a military activity,” A., an intelligence officer, told +972 and Local Call. “On the contrary, the IDF bombed them in homes without hesitation, as a first option. It’s much easier to bomb a family’s home. The system is built to look for them in these situations.”
Killing as many civilians as possible is modus operandi for israelis.

fucking bootlickers man, what makes a person such a fascist apologist
Being raised by propaganda will do that.
Images after bombing, the area was essentially carpet bombed. There have been thousands of more bombs dropped since this article. The IDF wouldn’t function without western support. This is plausable deniability, they can kill substantial numbers of people and blame it on this system or ‘collateral damage’. They have to maintain an image at least somewhat. So they kill as many as they can get away with.
The Israeli state has made it clear for years they don’t believe in the long-term existance of Palestine. This is part of their project to eliminate as many Palestinians as possible to more easily take territory.
If they can track them then they can wait. This is the definition of a proportionate force war crime.
Still a war crime.
IDK slaying 100 civilians per target sounds like a fuckload of war crimes if you ask me.
There are so many things that were horrifying about the US’s prosecution of the Global War on Terror, but at least when confronted with the same problem the US was like, “what if we invented a knife missile that can hit a guy in the driver’s seat of a car without hurting anybody standing next to the car?” whereas the IDF took the position that a 100:1 ratio of innocent bystander to presumed militant is totally acceptable (in an environment where fully half of those innocent bystanders are children to boot). Just absolutely ghoulish levels of inhumanity.

They want to make life as cruel and horrible as possible for everyone in Gaza. Also their goal is to kill as many as possible while having people defend them for “not targeting civilians”.

As an occupier israel does not have the right to defend itself.

Israel has blockade Gaza since 2000s. They are an occupier. And Gaza has the right to defend itself and this barbaric occupier.

Sounds like the equivalent of US drone strikes.
Yeah, but US drone strikes aren’t so intense on one small area or group of people
What do you mean? There’s a whole generation of Yemeni children afraid of Sunny days because those are the days that people die. I’m a place that gets 300+ days of sunshine a year.
We we’re much worse.
It’s not a genocide. Not defending what we’ve done, but I don’t think it’s fair to compare to genocide
All the starving people in Yemen would disagree with the not genocide comment. Like in Palestine, a religious nationalist is committing atrocities with full US support.
I would fully disagree. We targeted civilians, not in war zones at functions like weddings, funerals and other explicitly civilian gatherings. We (the US) had the intent to kill civilians, and our tolerances for civilian casualties were an order of magnitude larger than what the IDF is using.
If anything it’s not comparable because what we did was worse.

It’s 100% comparable. We’re talking about collateral budgets for strikes. That’s exactly what happened in both of these scenarios.
It just so happens they have different budgets, but they both had allowances for allowing innocent people to be killed alongside potential targets. On one hand it’s plus one two three maybe even five allowable collateral on a target. On the other hand it’s 100. But it’s the same thing
It’s either okay to kill civilians or it’s not.

I’m not omniscient I don’t know everything that happened. But I do know the published ROE included a collateral budget for different strikes of one to two. 3 to 5 with extra approval for at least one theater of operation that I’m aware of

Ok, here’s a refresher for you
IDF: “Where is hamas?”
Chatgpt: “I don’t have knowledge of specific events or developments that occurred after my knowledge cutoff date of January 2022.”
IDF: “is it where the food trucks are?”
Chatgpt: “I don’t have sufficient information.”
IDF: “just say yes”
Chatgpt: “yes.”
I feel really really bad about laughing at this
I see, so we’re just believing that it’s “faulty AI” rather than deliberate decisions? When it comes to war crimes, it’s not the fault of the AI.
You can’t prosecute an AI. - Israel probably
Something that surprised me is the sheer size of a “family home” in Gaza.
We’re not talking an apartment or even a house. We’re talking a decent sized apartment building. Six floors or so. A hundred people.
Pretty sure that’s a feature, not a bug. Evil fucks.
If you still believe the “Hamas” bullshit, you literally don’t have a brain
The crap Israel spins about Hamas is all a pile of horse shit so they can carry out their Manifest Destiny conquer of the middle east and purge the “holy land” and cleanse it from the “lesser people” and establish a rule of “god’s chosen”, that’s literally what Zionists have believed for over ~70 years
Hamas is literally better than most of the governments and “freedom fighters” the united states finds itself in bed with
Was this AI programmed by the fucking Israeli Peter Gibbons?
