      Many of the international courts do like to overlook war crimes committed by the “good guys”, also legality≠morality

      In general I think there has been a miscommunication. Do I think that people committing war crimes, under any whatever circumstance, have done nothing wrong? No. But if you look at the laws, there are circumstances were a crime is viewed specially. For example were I live if you get drunk and kill someone you will not be punished for murder, but for not being able to now your limits with alcohol. Or if someone puts a gun to your head and tells you to kill someone you will not be considered guilty in the way a murderer would.

      To get to the IDF soldiers, no I don’t think the propaganda excuses rape, they have done something wrong. However I don’t think they are inherently evil people that deserve to die or should be permanently excluded from society. I don’t think there lives should be considered expendable or worth less
