It's definitely a war crime. But Israel (or can't remember, maybe it was the US) struck and Iranian desalination plant first. Iran is doing tit for tat.

I know, but amongst those rules were things like not assassinating enemy rulers. Regime change, as the stated purpose of a conflict, changes the incentives. Would you rather deal with war crime allegations or be dead?
