Opinion writer Shmuel Rosner wrote Friday in the New York Times that he has no qualms about Israel killing dozens of Palestinian protesters and feels "no need to engage in ingénue mourning." From The New York Times: TEL AVIV — It is customary to adopt an apologetic tone when scores of people have been killed, as they were this week in Gaza. But I will avoid this sanctimonious instinct and declare coldly: Israel had a clear objective when it was shooting, sometimes to kill, well-organized “demonstrators” near the border. Israel was determined to prevent these people — some of whom are believed to have been armed, most apparently encouraged by their radical government — from crossing the fence separating Israel from Gaza. That objective was achieved.Incidentally, the Times said back in January that the notion America can defend its borders is a "myth." Follow InformationLiberation on Twitter, Facebook and Gab. |
