6. Human Rights Watch states all sorts of crazy shit

Maybe that's why its founder Robert Bernstein slammed them for their antisemitism, and Kenneth Roth, its executive director, just quit. If that's your only source, it is a laughable defense for your claims. Never mind that the supposed quote you excerpted has not been cited.

There were recordings of both wounded and non-wounded hostages. The ones who were physically able to resist, resisted.

I wouldn't say that bringing up the headquarters issue makes you any more credible, although I can see why you would deflect. Holding hostages in a hospital and belligerent combatants brandishing firearms as they drag the hostages in is more than sufficient for it to lose its protective status under international law.

Weak. Really weak.
