The Geneva Suggestions
The Geneva Conventions protect hospitals during war. But the safeguard isn't absolute if you were chosen by God

An attack under investigation
Sari Bashi said Human Rights Watch is investigating this attack on Shifa hospital, noting Israel said the Hamas fighters were leaving the hospital, not attacking from it. She also said that Israel gave no warning it was striking.
"These are the kinds of rules that all the nations in the world have agreed to," she said. "And even on its own statements, the Israeli military is not accepting those rules."
The same rules of war apply to Hamas, which makes no pretense of observing them.
A 1977 addition to the international rules of warfare state that "under no circumstances shall medical units be used in an attempt to shield military objectives from attack."
Hamas denies the Israeli allegation that it has headquarters under Shifa Hospital. But the militant group does acknowledge building a vast tunnel network, and it is widely believed to be operating underground in and around sensitive civilian sites.
In addition, Hamas has always targeted Israeli civilians, from scores of suicide bombings in the 1990s and early 2000s, to its Oct. 7 massacre in southern Israel.
