International law stipulates that the military reaction must be proportionate.
Should—or will—Israel go to this extreme? Paybacks are hell, but would the killing have the same effect? Specifically, moslems killed while conducting Holy War supposedly receive special benefits in the afterlife. They may crazily welcome the in-kind response by Israel.
The following from frontpagemag.com.
Never has the longtime criticism that Israel’s response to moslem terrorism been as ghoulishly absurd as it is now:
Norway’s prime minister says the Israeli army’s response to the deadly Hamas attack that killed 1,400 people and saw over 230 abducted by terrorists has been disproportionate, and denounces a ‘catastrophic’ humanitarian situation in Gaza.
Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store stated on NRK public radio:
International law stipulates that [the reaction] must be proportionate. Civilians must be taken into account, and humanitarian law is very clear on this. I think this limit has been largely exceeded.
Turning terrorism into a math problem never made any moral, logical, or strategic sense.
How many Arab moslem women should Israel rape for their response to be proportionate?
How many babies should Israel behead and how many children should be kidnapped and hold hostage?
Wars should be fought and won against military personnel. When terrorists hide behind civilians, they have to be fought and destroyed. And the civilian casualties are their fault and the fault of those who don’t evacuate.
There is no proportion in fighting an enemy who brutally tortures and massacres our women and children. You utterly defeat and destroy them instead of proportionally trading crimes for crimes and evils for evils until the UN and the prime minister of Norway approve.
Final thought: The call for insanity as a response to insanity is insane.
