31. :: Gee - So we agree then
You stated quite clearly that "TERRORISM *is* collective punishment".
As we both know Collective Punishment is a war crime under the Geneva Convention, eg:
Fourth Geneva Convention:
Article 33. "No protected person may be punished for an offense he or she has not personally committed. Collective penalties and likewise all measures of intimidation or of terrorism are prohibited."
In the example I gave earlier I cited the IAF creating sonic booms over Gaza, a practice which had no other purpose other than to *terrorize* the civilian population.
Clearly this was IAF terrorism as a form of collective punishment.
While I'm at it I'd also mention that the illegal practice of bulldozing the family homes of 'terrorists' also contravenes Article 33.
At this stage I think we have shown that your outlandish statement: "We have NEVER committed a single war-crime. Our actions were entirely within the Geneva Convention and UN Charter." is totally erroneous.

32. Are we Jews..lambs?
One has to be kidding to call Jews "lambs".
I grew up in Israel, served in the IDF during the first Lebanon war, and continue to be involved in the Jewish community in the US. Here is my concise take on the idea that Jews are "lambs": People who believe in "Hatov shebagoyim harog" (Talmud Bavli, Tractate "Soferim') which is literally a permission to harm gentile, are not "lambs". At the most we Jews can be considered foxes. Not "lambs".
I hope YNET will have enough balls to publish this.

33. Matty Groves #31 no we do not agree on anything
I read those articles. Guess what they do not state that a sonic boom is a war-crime or even anything else about sonic booms nor does it say anything bulldozers. Destroying buildings used by terrorists is allowed under the GC. Wrong again
Your inventions do not constitute laws.
Now launching attacks on civilians that is a war-crime. Attacking from civilian areas is also a war-crime. Using civilians as human shields is also a war-crime.
Stopping those war-crimes is not a war-crime. Sorry but you really should learn something about logic, because you haven't any.
By the way the GC also states that combatants use of protected areas negates that protection. Might try reading the WHOLE thing.
