My point was that attacking military targets inside heavily populated areas will inevitably kill civilians. That’s why civilian protection is a central principle in international humanitarian law. The rule has to apply universally.

"I genocided your brothers and bombed your schools and seiged you but please don't hit my military targets cause I put them in densely populated areas"

Your humanitarian principle requires everyone in the world to basically allow themselves to be attacked by America, it's European lapdogs and the zionist occupation.

From a legal and military standpoint your logic is simply absurd.

Self-defense and protecting civilians are not mutually exclusive. That’s literally why the laws of war exist.

I don't even know what point you're trying to make anymore. Let's cut this thread honestly it's long enough.
