Even in the notion of lex talionis, there's supposed to be consideration for proportionate and discriminating response. It's not a head for an eye. It's not the notion that one guy stabbing me gives me warrant to stab a third party. Or, at least, when these things happen we don't think it's our best work.
Does the arab world judge the quality of it's military actions by how much cruelty they can inflict rather than how much good judgment they display? The same question will now be asked of the israeli government, even in the context of granting an absolute right of self defense. You seem like you're well aware of this - what with bitching about the great satan for years.
-and about that arab world. They getting alot of full throated support over there in hamas at present?
The whole thing is completely messed up. And as I said before, there is no Arab world. Not in reality. This entire area in the past used to rich, prosperous, with poets, writers, schools, beautiful architecture, thriving industries, culture, beauty…
You know, Bon Jovi has very nice video clip called “Dry Country”.
That’s the only thing it is today. Just Oil, skyscraper and that’s it. The whole region. The “Arab World”.
