disproportinality is the big crime israel is always accused off, yet when hamas demand several hundred pisonrs for one israeli solder, this is never mentioned as disproportionate by anyone. this continuous unchallenged claim that Israeli must always act ‘proportionally’ is shouted out by evereyone. but what this means always goes unsaid. For example, when terrorists were randomly raining missiles down on Israel should Israel merely have taken an equivalent amount of ordnance and rained it randomly on gaza? In this recent case should Israel have simply sent hordes of IDF to the ship until they outnumbered the terrorists 10 to one and proceed to bludgeon them with metal polls and chains?
it's difficult for average citizens outside israel to understand the intricacies of the situation and what it means for the people who live in israel as the media is so one sided to the point of propaganda. the security of a nation must be insured, it's a fundamental human right. the last ship israel boarded contained a massive shipment of weapons from iran, no one seemed to worried about that.
it's very obvious that intentions of these peace protesters was to create an international situation where israel could once again be delegitimised by the rest of the islam appeasing world, the facts are thrown out the window with logic and reason. as for paul mcgeough from the smh i'm sure his palestinian girlfriend would be pleased to have him home home. the smh don't tell you about that do they?
