#12  Everyone is going on about 'proportionality' and most will assume that it means the force used by one side is proportionate to the force used by the other.

As far as I can tell it doesn't mean that at all.

Wikipedia sez: Proportionality: The overall destruction expected from the use of force must be outweighed by the good to be achieved.

So what they are really saying is protecting Israelis (Jews) isn't sufficient reason/justification.

Disgusting hypocrites.

#11  Speaking of 'war crimes' and international law, isn't the NYT, MSM et al due for their Julius Streicher and Hans Fritzsche moment? Or does international law and precedent only apply to Bush & Co. [rhetorical question].

#7  Au contraire. I wouldn't be surprised if she and her ilk preplanned this PR assault on Israel in close coordination with the Hezzies before the kidnapping.

#6  You know, I don't think Israel, Hezbollah, or Hamas give a rat's ass what that broad says.

#5  Why do anti-semites always hide behind the "atrocities", "war crimes" and "brutal agression" argument? At least the Hezzies say death to Israel in an unvarnished way.

#3  As exJAG said yesterday: Hezb's the only side committing any war crimes by using civilians as human shields.
