"Palestine isn't a recognized nation, thus the Geneva Conventions don't apply to them."

That's my guess, as funny enough there is a semi similar event in battletech lore where Liao used similar reasoning ("they didn't sign the Ares Connections, so thus it doesn't apply to them") when they went and nuked the Taurians at some point.

Now, how much would anyone buy that shit is left up in the air.
