In reply to the discussion: MSF-backed hospital in Syria destroyed by air strikes - statement [View all]muriel_volestrangler
(106,961 posts)11. MSF is treating Syrians
Many Syrians in that area don't like Assad (his family has been in power for about 40 years, and has carried out massacres, and Assad is accused of a state policy of extermination by the UN). But you're saying it's fine for Assad, or his ally, to bomb a hospital treating those Syrians.
This is a new definition of 'peacenik', obviously. One who wants hospitals and civilians bombed by a war criminal.

Odd - international law is clear, that medical treatment in a war zone is fine
