“Proportionality does not mean that the defensive force has to be equal to the attack. It means you can use force proportionate to the defensive objective—to stop, repel & prevent further attacks. Israel's war aims are consistent with proportionality in the law of self-defence.”

But that means what Hamas did was within their rights of self defense. See, I'm afraid you don't really understand what you're saying. Words have a universal meaning, and if they mean something for one group they mean the same for the other..

This is brilliant. Clear. And fascinating. Thank you for sharing it.

@UKLFI Yes agreed

Absolutely correct.

INT LAW RULES IF WAR: 'Proportionality' does NOT mean that the defensive force has to be EQUAL to the attack. It means DEFENDANTS can use force proportionate to the 'DEFENSIVE OBJECTIVE' ie to STOP, REPEL+PREVENT FURTHER ATTACKS (ON ISRAEL by Hamas-Gaza/Palestine/Others).

Yes but your using logic to convince fanatics. And yes I’m talking about the so called progressive left.

So many words and Israel is not winning the propaganda war. How do we change the narrative?
