    Please point me to the international law (I assume you mean the Geneva Convention) that says that you can’t take prisoners.

      I said you can’t illegally detain people without charge, not that you can’t take prisoners. A large number of Palestinians are held without charge in Israelz and in the past few weeks that number has sky rocketed with many arbitrary detention.

          Yes being at “war” is totally the best excuse to commit atrocities and get away with it.

              That isn’t an excuse either to kill more than 8 thousand civilians.

                  My goalpost went far away from here because this is a trolly conversation getting nowhere. It’s my fault for replying with trolling to trolling comments.

                    Yes, I’m a troll, that’s why I agreed with your last statement.

                    And I’ll agree with you again, there’s no dialogue happening here, you’re just willfully denying reality. Bye now.
