Amnesty International has accused Hezbollah of acts amounting to war crimes in the conflict with Israel.
It says the Lebanese militant group deliberately targeted civilians with rockets in the 34-day war - a "serious violation of humanitarian law".
Amnesty has already accused Israel of committing war crimes by targeting Lebanon's civilian infrastructure and is urging a UN inquiry into violations.

I was wondering when this was going to happen.

How is "deliberately targeted civilians " a joke. If you have some "Inside Information" , you should release it to Amnesty International. Or is it Amnesty International that you think is a joke?

You mean the whole country:heated: .

If the definition of war crime in this instance is the intentional targeting of civilians, then obviously Hezbollah is guilty of war crimes. The fact that Israel does something doesn't make it right does it? Unless there is a double standard, both sides should be held accountable for their actions.

In that case The US are the worst offenders I mean they're the only country that I know of that have nuked people in the past.

I'll grab with these statement

About 1,000 Lebanese, mainly civilians, died in the fighting, while 161 Israelis, mainly soldiers, were killed.

Also these one

Thus, Hezbollah's primary violation of international law, and massive missile attacks launched from behind the civilian population, are relegated to secondary status, while Israel's response to these deadly attacks is incredulously elevated to the main focus of Amnesty's analysis. In addition, despite the acceptance that military weapons hidden in civilian areas are subject to attack, Amnesty claims that "the pattern and scope of the attacks . . . [make Israel's] justification ring hollow" without offering a credible military alternative. Based on the organization's understanding of international law, Hezbollah could have continuously fired from Mosques, schools, and apartment buildings with immunity from any Israeli response.

It fair to says that both sides are broke and violated the international law,but which side did it more?

By definition, there is no such thing as a justifiable warcrime, it is a deliberate violation of the rules of war. The "reasoning" is irrelevant except as an attempt to justify the unjustifiable.
