Why is Israel bombing civvies and not military installations? Sounds like a war crime to me!

Private dwellings with no functional military presence would not count as a legitimate military target. But the Ukrainians shell only civilians without a second thought. And so did Hamas.
I think you are making light of this in order to ignore it. But it was not ignored when the Geneva and Hague treaties on conventions of war were negotiated. Human shields are forbidden. It is not permissible to position anti-aircraft guns on top of hospitals, or store munitions in factories, or set up command centers in university buildings, or fighting teams in apartments. What's the penalty? The opponent always has a right to target military forces or equipment, no matter where they are. The Russians have been scrupulous about this in Ukraine. I'm not sure how scrupulous the Israelis are, but since the Gazans democratically chose Hamas to be their government, they have signed up for all the backblast the actions of Hamas provokes. "But they are innocent civilians!" Innocent of what? Certainly not innocent of approving, endorsing, supporting, and obeying outright terrorists. They are accomplices.
you want to defend Israel launching attacks against syria and using white phosphorous while you're at it?
Have they? Who says so? (Apparently Human Rights Watch, a UN advocate.) Video? Chemical assay? Question everything?
Are there hostile formations in Syria? We are there without invitation, so who is the worse actor?
Here is a good resource on the use of white phosphorus, which, if used as a smoke-producing agent (smokescreens, target marking) is not banned by any treaty. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_phosphorus_munitions#International_law Do more research, less knee-jerking.
You remind me of the "We don't need no trial; hang the bastard!" spirit of thought.
your link literally says it's a chemical weapon
plenty of videos on telegram, the MSM may or may not show them in the future due to absurd bias towards pro Israel.
you keep dodging questions and throwing wild accusations.
Let me ask you a question, is there a war crime that would make you say "maybe Israel is the bad guy?" Or nah?
Only Israel can kill civilians!!
Not a "chemical weapon" in regard to any prohibited aspect. That category only applies if it is used specifically as an agent to produce toxicity. Smoke-production is okay...as you would know if you actually READ the article.
There are always plenty of videos on telegram. But what do they mean? Even incendiary use is permitted under the right circumstances. (As you would know, etc.)
I haven't "dodged" any question, and the wild accusations fall on your side.
So long as Israel targets opposing forces and does not violate any treaty to which it is a signatory, I have no problem. Why should I?
It is plain as day that you just want an excuse to bash Israel. I would not be surprised if you have heartburn over the U.S. bombardment of Japanese cities in World War II.
