Civilian massacre is civilian massacre. Whether it is done by gas, white phosphorus, machetes and mutilations and leaving the victims to bleed to death, or machine guns, is not relevant: dead is dead, suffering is suffering, and massacre is massacre. And do not mention the Geneva Convention again, I think I said clearly enough what I think of it.
BTW, in those parts of the world they do not fight by the rules of the Hague Land Warfare charter or the Geneva Convention anyway. You can voice your important protest against that violation, if it offends your civilised sentiments, okay. I'm sure they will consider your protest thoroughly and then make up their minds.
