It does matter. It matters very much. We've had this debate before. LAW...Common Law...far less for International Law is predicated on proportionality.
The MURDER of 19 people and the wounding of over 60 others (Wound i.e. they were SHOT but haven't died in most cases) is NOT proportional to a humanitarian flotilla. Israel broke the law. Its actions were once again disproportionate. And once again the US, UK and others will give it a free pass because of how deeply Israeli lobbies under various guises and names have their hands in the pockets of the politicians in these countries. NOT because Israel's actions were right, justified, or justifiable. You know Larry, even when the US Navy, The French Navy, the British Navy are dealing with Hostile Pirates they don't kill that many people. Do you realise that? And those guys are Armed with automatic rifles, grenades and are shooting back. On 31 May 2010 16:59, Larry C. Lyons <[email protected]> wrote: > > That does not matter.
