A 50:1 response ratio. The Israelis sure know how to do human rights violations.

Fighter Jets should not be used against civilians.

Neither should rockets, bomb vests, bullets, ships, missiles.

Is responding to an attack a human rights violation? Should Israel just accept attacks without any response?

why russia protects Syrians, but not civilians in the worlds biggest concentration camp. Russia must send S-400 or S-500 self defence systems to Gaza and the West Bank. and warships. In return, they should get claims to Palestines oil and gas.

Is responding to an attack a human rights violation?

If it's grossly disproportionate - 50:1 ratio, yes.

Should Israel just accept attacks without any response?

Of course not and nobody is suggesting this. We are suggesting proportionality and addresses the root cause of the attacks.

Benjamin Netanyahu stated last week Israel is only for Jews and not Arabs.

Same substance, different effect.

Good to have you back, Zichi.

Israel will do what it must to protect its people and its nation. Heart goes out to them, soliderity all the way.

War is about breaking things and killing people, until the opponent doesn't have the will to fight back any more. Disproportionate response is the rule, not the exception, in war if you are doing it right.

The Israelis know how to fight to protect their people with a long history of being "the little guy surrounded." After 6+M of your people are killed, you might be a little touchy on protecting the rest too.
