My last sentences here will give you, quite possibly, more realization than you may wish to know about those with whom the Israelis are dealing.
You know, I dont see these war crimes posts about our enemies when America goes into foreign tumult. I see a lot of reasons why some of us do not wish to go to war: death and destruction, etc. but I dont see protestations of the potential for us committing war crimes. And thats not because were nice guys, its because if the Jews are fighting, then they are invariably committing war crimes because
Theyre Jews, right?
Oh, and one more thing: the Israelis identified and apprehended Adolf Eichmann in South America and brought him to stand trial in Israel in a judicial proceeding. Now, if it were up to people seeking revenge, they wouldve tied him to stakes on the burning hot desert ground and flayed the skin off him millimeter by millimeter keeping him alive with IVs as long as possible so he could endure a tiny percentage of the pain of the 6,000,000+ deaths which he engineered. But no, they treated him humanely which was much more than he deserved.
We Jews follow the law wherever we can, and try to do the right thing whenever possible. Sometimes its not possible, and there is not a country with a military in existence, which has not done things to win a war either of its own, making or anothers. Try to remember that when you think about the fact that when the Israeli team was held captive in Munich during the Olympics, at least one of them was castrated while he was conscious and alive. This is the enemy. Tell me again about why our morality is in question constantly. There is not a screenwriter in Hollywood, who would not see to it that individual who perpetrated that horror is killed in a most ignominious fashion, and the audience would stand up and cheer, because that is the appropriate fate of the malignant sadist. I understand why someone would not appreciate or approve of that, but what if it were their wife, their daughter, their entire family, who had been mutilated and murdered most horribly, then unless youre an emotionless individual, you would approve reflexively.
Or perhaps youd stand on your principles. Who the hell knows?
