Not all extrajudicial killings are unlawful. especially if they are for Israel , thinks Alan Dershowitz.
Alan Dershowitz: It is against the law of Dubai for an Israeli agent to kill a combatant against Israel while he is in Dubai. So the people who engaged in the killing presumptively violated the domestic law of Dubai, unless there is a defense to such a killing based on international principles regarding enemy combatants.
WTF? your defense is Israel should not abide by any other states laws when looking for a target. murder in another country is still murder. would you like it if Mexico started killing folks in the U.S in the name of its drug war?
Alan Dershowitz:This was not an ordinary murder. It was carried out as a matter of state policy as part of an ongoing war.
correct , Israel wants to stop Hamas from protecting its territorial integrity. why should Palestinians have a homeland ahh?
Alan Dershowitz: Richard Goldstone, in his interviews, has suggested that Israel should protect itself from these unlawful attacks by more proportionate retail measures, such as commando raids and targeted killing of terrorists engaged in the firing of rockets. Well, there could be no better example of a proportionate.
HAMAS: “We have maintained that the confrontation between us and the Israeli enemy be in the occupied land,” said Zahar. “Israel wants to change the rules of the game and to open the international field for battles so it will be responsible for this,” Mahmoud al-Zahar - told reporters
I guess Israel wont mind if Hamas opens a new front in this War. me thinks He’s willing to swallow any atrocity, as long as it’s committed by the Israeli country.
- other times this guy opened his trap for Israel , Alan Dershowitz argues that all those civilians being killed in Lebanon may not really be civilians after all: anyone who declines to leave their home despite Israeli orders to do so is, ipso facto, complicit with terrorism and presumably fair game once the Israeli invasion gets under way. How they get totted up after the killing is over depends on where they fall on Dershowitz’s nebulous “continuum.” - more @ washingtonmonthly.com
