You state:
“Killing civilians ... Israel does it more and with less reason, given the enormous power of that state. It does so with clear alternatives, which means it is a deliberate policy.”
Absolute Bosh!
Also, what do you mean by “civilians”? Provide substantiated evidence for your accusations.
Your statement is “up there” with - Jews being responsible for the Black Death - and Jews being cannibals.
Israel never deliberately targets civilians. NEVER.
However, before responding, read a couple of the references I have provided. You patently know nothing about International Jus Bellum. One of the main principles is that soldiers are clearly distinct from civilians by the uniforms they wear. Historically, countries take a very dim view of enemies in civilian garb. In your reading, make particular note of subversives ... Remember also, that suicide-bombers and terrorists both conceal themselves as civilians, and among civilians.
Is Israel expected to emulate Chamberlain, who on his deathbed bemoaned:
“ ... if only he hadn’t lied to me ...!”
Israel has a duty to protect all its citizens.
Do you count those "civilians," who blow themselves up, as "civilians"; or call those "civilians," whom the Israeli's prevent from blowing themselves up.
Israel never deliberately targets civilians. NEVER.
Antiseptic, Get your facts right ... especially check them with other sources.
You are a propogandist’s delight. Give you a “catch-cry” and off you would go trotting out any ludicrous statement: such as : “The Moon is made of Green Cheese”
Or, perhaps more relevant to you:
“The Moon-landing is a Lie! It was Mocked up in a Hanger!”.
Indeed, perhaps you believe this ..
