“…… So here’s a news flash: Israel actually does not have the right to defend itself in terms of the West Bank and Gaza. It has the right to protect its citizens, but it does not have the right to use overwhelming military force against people under its occupation.
Israel may take measures to protect its citizens”
>>Even by your twisted logic, Israel has the right to defend itself. When its enemies hide among civilians across the border, then Israel has the right to attack its enemies. If the enemies hide among civilians, if the civilians allow themselves to be used as human shields, then the laws of war allow the retaliatory attacks. Even the UN , no friend of Israel, agrees that Israel has the right to defend itself. Unfortunately, they become softhearted when they see Hamas human shields getting killed.
