The Allies, during WWII, killed thousands of civilians while bombing Germany and Japan. Civilians often contribute to the war machine and therefore, pay the price. I dare you to walk up to a veteran or his family and call them war criminals. If you did it to my grandfather, i would hurt you, badly.
I have already served in the army...
My opinion on this matter aligns precisely with International Law and I know when and where to call out a wrongdoing. This one is a hell of a mistake where there are mass killings of innocent civilians, mass and forced displacement of hundreds of thousands of people and deprivation from basic right such as water, food, electricity, and fuel and destruction of infrastructure.
Where, when, and what job did you do in the Army? And was it the U.S. Army?

Water is a basic human right, and denying this right violates international humanitarian law and the Geneva conventions, constituting a war crime, according to UN experts.
In 2021, about 90% of Gaza's water came from groundwater wells, according to the Palestinian Water Authority. The remaining 10% of the water supply comes from the desalination plants or is purchased from Israel's national water company, Mekorot.
