Hi everyone, long time lurker, first time posting.
A couple days ago on the Napoleon subreddit, a question was asked whether Napoleon was justified in the execution of prisoners at Jaffa. One user, Brechtel198, claimed that since the prisoners had broken parole, they were subject to the death penalty.
Other users pointed out that only a few prisoners of Jaffa had broken the penalty and the rest were executed along with them. Also, Napoleon had broken the terms of capitulation of the prisoners from El-Arish prior to Jaffa, citing Etienne Louis-Malus.
I was curious what sources are available that discuss the Jaffa massacre? It's seems there is still disagreement on what happened.
