Wow. Just wow. I see where you are going here. Not a good place. One would expect a military presence at a border crossing, to assure safe passage for those that are bringing in humanitarian aid. Wouldn't we?
So if the target was a military one, and it was located next to a humanitarian corridor with presumably civilians, isn't that sort of human shield-ish? Also, isn't it true that people have the right to defend themselves against imminent attack, or does that only apply to Israel?
