    Is the document itself a cause for concern? No.

    I disagree, heavily.

    Every country commissions these stratagram documents for different scenarios.

    But this document is an official israeli government document discussing something that is not just ’ politically unpalatable’. It is describing and discussing a literal warcrime: https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/customary-ihl/v2/rule129

    So

    Is the document itself a cause for concern?

    Is a solid fuckin yes. That, in itself, is already the story. The israeli government internally creates scenarios to commit warcrimes. But that israeli government officials openly advocate for warcrimes or genocidal actions is even worse, because it means they really want to do that, and only strong outside pressure from their western allies might prevent this.

    Don’t pretend like this is “just theoretical”. Because this just happend:

        but I promise you every government has strategic documents going through different scenarios, including the usefulness of war crimes to achieve goals.

        I disagree here. I cannot prove it, but I can give you my honest informed opinion: I know that there are governments that do not stoop to that level. Sometimes, a country gets a government that does this, but then it gets another government that is more civilized and moral and scraps all this.

        There are governments and people leading these governments that are actually committed to not do these things.
