Example of what is NOT a war crime:
NATO forces want to stop bombs from killing 1000s of innocent children and so they aim at what they believe is the bomb planning offices.
however,
It turns out that the would-be targets deliberately put the office next door to a school.
They did this knowing that NATO would likely strike their building and knowing NATO won't kill innocent children, they think it protects their building,
however,
IF NATO doesn't believe there are children and DO explode their office then those dead children will make great propaganda.
Maybe even pressure NATO to leave.
At which time they can make bombs and explode the 'enemy children'.

and far too many people are far too stupid to catch onto any of this.

Anyways, yes the guy should be killed because he murdered a plane full of people and bragged about how the wimp UK fools gave him back his terrorist.
What a bunch of pathetic foolish Kafirs. Proof Islam is superior to the weak little Brits haha.

Very sensible reply which puts the issue in perspective. All too often people bandy the words "war crimes" without having a clue as to the realities of war.

All too often people buy into propaganda and setups by the enemy......

As your reply indicates when at war attacking the enemy is always a risk to civilians but not a deliberate attempt to kill them as is the case with regimes slaughtering there own to hold on to power......

If one called the killing of civilians a war crime then no war would be able to be persued and tirents would continue to be supreme.

Of course one can alway argue the case for or against being involved that is a personal point of view from all concerned........But to accuse NATO who are using sofisticated expensive technology to minimise civilian victims of war crimes is just plain bloody ridiculous if not bordering on insanity......When you compare NATO's actons to that of the Libian regime.....
