I'm not sure, besides pure insults, that there could be anything more disruptive or malicious than a poster that purposefully misrepresents the truth or posts fabrications cut from whole cloth: especially when that poster knows full well that they are spreading misinformation.
Don't do anything else which is similarly disruptive.
Just because it isn't listed here, doesn't mean it's ok. If you post anything which is obviously disruptive, malicious, or repugnant to this community, its members, or its values, you risk being in violation of these Terms of Service.
One more thing: Don't push your luck.
The DU Community Standards state: "It is the responsibility of all DU members to participate in a manner that promotes a positive atmosphere and encourages good discussions among a diverse community of people holding a broad range of center-to-left viewpoints." Members who demonstrate a pattern of disruptive behavior over time and end up getting too many of their posts hidden by the jury (measured by raw number or percentage) may be found to be in violation of our Terms of Service. If you seem to be ruining this website for a large proportion of our visitors, if we think the community as a whole would be better off without you here, if you are constantly wasting the DU Administrators' time, if you seem to oppose the mission of DU, or if the DU Administrators just don't like you, we will revoke your posting privileges. Remember: DU is supposed to be fun don't make it suck.

I'm surprised that some wish to regurgitate the "There is no law" nonsense over and over

Certainly there is, shira. The 4th Geneva convention is extremely clear on that.

I stated that Geneva 49 doesn't apply in the case of disputed non-sovereign land.
