| JES: "All he is doing is making pointing out the legitimacy (in his opinion) of bringing someone to court, even if that means abduction, should they threaten the citizens of a state" Make no mistake: JES is claiming that Eitan is talking HYPOTHETICALLY. Eitan: "Kidnapping enemy leaders is a legitimate method used by states to combat threats to their existence," That is not a hypothetical, but a statement of FACT i.e. states *CAN* kidnap foreign leaders they see as a threat. Eitan: "A man like Ahmadinejad who threats the existence of the state of Israel and is also preparing for it is worthy of being brought before the international court in The Hague even if it is by means of abduction." That is not a hypothetical, but a statement of FACT i.e. Ahmadinejad threatens Israel. Eitan: "Just like we kidnapped the senior Hezbollah figure Mustafa Dirani" That is not a hypothetical, but a statement of FACT i.e. Israel kidnaps people. |
