Therefore they bear collective responsibility for Hamas policies and actions, and are collectively guilty for any acts of aggression Hamas commits.
It follows from this that the Gazans merit collective punishment, as they bear collective responsibility for Hamas` actions because of having voted in Hamas.
Therefore, cutting off fuel, electricity, food and water are legitimate means of retaliation against those who bear collective responsibility and collective guilt.
Moreover, returning fire to the sources of fire, be they homes, schools, mosques or hospitals; and strategic bombing and shelling of targets in Gaza which may be used to harbor terrorists, arms factories and depots - all these are legitimate methods of collective punishment of those who bear collective guilt. |
