I love how they make it conversational by phrasing it like an everyday question like "Aren't blueberries berries?"

Aren't hospitals protected under the rules of war?

Any hospital in a conflict is protected by the rules of war - they shall not be the target of an attack.

But in some circumstances, hospitals can lose that protective status if they're being used to "commit, outside their humanitarian function... acts harmful to the enermy", according to Protocol 1 of the Geneva Conventions.

Israel has said that is the case with Gaza's largest hospital, Al-Shifa- a claim disputed by Hamas and hospital authorities.

But there are several hurdles that still remain - as the BBC's Analysis editor Ros Atkins explains.

Edit

I thought I created a typo somehow. Nope - "enermy" is all theirs.

Ros Atkins is the biggest fucking propagandist disinformation dickhead at the BBC. I fucking hate the very ground that he walks on and that he gets alzheimers early or and has to suffer losing his mind. I dunno, something nasty, he deserves it.

This is the guy that spread the guy that spearheaded the propaganda of "there are only 1000 nazis in ukraine" bollocks.

He is absolute evil. The very worst of the BBC ghouls.

If you want to bully this shit he's got a university thing in 31 hours that I think might have chat enabled: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMX8uKc-_8E

The rest of the video he shows of Sabrina Singh cuts off right before she admits that she's just repeating what Israel has told the pentagon. Atkins knows this and still presented it as the US independently confirming.

Inshallah, his last conversation wall-talk
