    His narrative is that it was internationally recognized, which it was not. Words have meaning and he is a disinformer. It is worded intentionally to have you jump to conclusions that are inaccurate through different framing of the situation and decision to conduct the strike.

      Under international law, you do not wantonly strike vehicles with markings for medical aid, such as the word Ambulance. Doing so is a war crime. It doesn’t matter if it was, “an internationally recognized convoy.” It doesn’t matter if you suspect that it is fake.

      Israel is admitting to violating Article 21 of the Geneva convention.
