Human life dictated by a machine on who to kill. You need to be so fucking cold and evil to be okay with this.

Not only is it heinous it’s also obvious this is just a testing ground for it. Think about it, a testing ground that the test is how many you can kill using AI. We need an amendment to the Geneva convention

Even if you got US and Israel to sign it, Russia, China and The Saudis would never.

Who do you think is selling this capability to Israel? Hint: it's not the Saudis.

I actually have no idea who sold what in this case and it's actually not even remotely relevant since the discussion was about updating the Geneva convention and who wouldn't sign.

However, you seem to imply that Israel lacks the knowledge and resources to create the Lavender system themselves. Intriguing! Please elaborate with some links supporting your claims.

Nah mate, I'm quietly suggesting that the US arms Israel to the teeth to preserve US interests, influence, and economic strength. They ain't going to do anything that rocks that boat.
