Article 48 of Protocol I states, "the Parties to the conflict shall at all times distinguish between the civilian population and combatants and between civilian objects and military objectives and accordingly shall direct their operations only against military objectives."36

Which is what they where doing

Really? Then how do you explain the death of so many children? And please, don't give me the latest GOP talking paper that Hezbollah was hiding behind civilians. Hospitals were hit; ambulances with clearly marked crosses on their tops were hit; bomb shelters were hit; roads and bridges were taken out so people could not escape the death and destruction, etc.

Israel did the bare minimum in protecting the Lebanese civilian population while making a big show of dropping leaflets.
