I would be fascinated to hear your view on that. And as far as international law goes, Israel is allowed to attack people who commit war crimes. Launching of rockets at civilians is a war crime. Suicide bombers blowing up civilians in restaurants are a war crime. Israel has every right to go after those people, provided they try to limit civilian casualties. It`s a war stupid- casualties happen. What is horrible is when they are the intended targets, which the Palestinians have made it their point time and again to prove that those are the ones their brave freedom fighters go after- young boys sitting and studying in a library.
