"1. It is prohibited in all circumstances to make the civilian population as such, individual civilians or civilian objects the object of attack by incendiary weapons.
2. It is prohibited in all circumstances to make any military objective located within a concentration of civilians the object of attack by air-delivered incendiary weapons.
3. It is further prohibited to make any military objective located within a concentration of civilians the object of attack by means of incendiary weapons other than air-delivered incendiary weapons, except when such military."
In other words, a militia, or terrorists, hiding inside of a civilian population is not justification for Israel or any country to use white prosperous in a civilian area. As long as there is even one civilian in the reasonable definition of town or village, or much less a city, its use is prohibited. And its use is an international war crime.
And if there is a civilian hospital on top of a bomb making factory, again the word civilian trumps all other considerations. In short, the end does not justify the means.
Of course Israel and other nations assert their rights to interpret clear language regarding war crimes to their advantage. But when they find themselves in a war crimes court, their lack of reading comprehension is not a valid defense.
As Israeli still has a large number of international war crimes charges hanging over various officials regarding cast lead and subsequent and past orgies of collective punishment. And with war crimes, there is no statute of limitations. As for the USA, President GWB, Tony Blair, and Obama, we can't rule out that they too may stand in the docket. As far as I am concerned, if you do the crime best expect to do the time.
