Funny the IDF don't really seem to be doing much search and rescue here - more like ethnic cleansing and apartheid:

"The United Nations has rebuked Israel for carrying out what it said was the biggest demolition of Palestinian homes in the occupied West Bank for a decade.

Some 73 people, including 41 children, were made homeless when their dwellings were knocked down in the Bedouin settlement of Khirbet Humsa, in the Jordan Valley, the UN said."

1) offtopic 2) The Israeli military said the structures had been built illegally.

It is very much on topic. If they want to be seen as humanitarians they need to stop committing war crimes and other atrocities in their backyard.

Morality does not subscribe to some kind of arithmetic where doing good deeds can somehow cancel the evil that you also commit.

Is not the job of the army to declare what is legal or illegal in a democracy. Countries have a judicature system for that.

A bomb destroying your home with one minute warning is not equivalent to a court order, and can't replace it. Would be seen in any real democracy with a minimum respect by the rule of law as a ridiculously illegal move (and severely prosecuted).

Well of course they did. Would any military say otherwise in the same situation?
