Israel is within its rights

Jul 26, 2006 08:48

I have not yet seen a more concise statement of the impossible standard to which European and Middle Eastern countries are holding Israel in the war in Lebanon. The arguments are clear and to the point, starting with the headline: "Israel is within its rights". It will probably only take you about five minutes to read the whole article. I have yet to read any such article that can justify Hezbollah's actions.

(Of course, the argument of whether they should do things just because they are within their rights is far more nuanced.)

casus belli, israel, war, double standard, laws of war, terrorism
