Hassan Nasrallah
================

Hassan Nasrallah was the long-serving Secretary-General of Hezbollah, killed in an Israeli strike on a building complex in southern Lebanon. The strike achieved its strategic objective, the decapitation of Hezbollah's leadership, but at the cost of approximately 300 additional deaths from the same operation. John Kiriakou characterizes the operation, as he does the parallel scientist-killing strikes in the Iran 12-Day War, as a war crime under the laws of armed conflict: "They killed 300 people in southern Lebanon when they went after Hassan Nasrallah, the former head of Hezbollah, just blew up the entire complex. It decapitated Hezbollah. It was also a war crime."
