Being Swiss myself I know that most Swiss people irritatingly consider themselves experts at politics. And you`re definitely pushing the envelope - maybe you have a strange sense of humor.
Anyway, here my expert opinion: it is clear that Hamas on a regular basis are using installations such as UN installations, mosques, universities and kinder gardens to store weapons, produce explosives, and shoot rockets. With good success - the civilian casualties incurred that way tilt world opinion reliably towards the Palestinians.
Now the correct reaction in my view is, - all affected international institutions should withdraw all and every support from Gaza and clear their posts, - as a civilian, avoid such locations like the pest. - as the IDF -while I don`t agree with their general heavy-handedness - as far as target selection goes, this is what they must continue doing.
If you`re into Sci-Fi, read "Footfall" by Niven/Pournelle, and see what the Fithp do in this situation ;-) Michael |
