> Desmond Walker responds: I can detect a MAJOR FLAW in this kind of reasoning. The major problem with your reasoning is that it doesnt see the rocket attacks as a military strategy that was implemented with the intention of providing a logical-sounding rationale for the application of overwhelming military force. And in addition to that you are failing to see that the rocket attacks are primarily a tactical DECEPTION that works to the advantage of one partys bloodthirsty agenda. Implicit in your logic, too, is a tacit acceptance of war propaganda since you appear to be accepting the war propaganda at its face value. In other words, you seem to be placing inordinate stock in the veracity of the propaganda thats being proliferated over the airwaves !! and you seem to believe that whats being fed to you over the airwaves is true somehow, but thats a dubious assumption given the overwhelming likelihood that the rockets are being fired by the exact_same_party thats been trying to block all humanitarian aid from entering Gaza. Israel in other words. If a) youve bought into the notion that certain non-jewish partisans are firing those rockets at Israel from Gaza, and b) if you believe that the rocket attacks are being carried out by certain non-jewish partisans who arent getting paid $$$ to fire those rockets at Israel, then c) it follows logically that you can be forced into accepting the idea that Israel has a right to defend itself by launching a military invasion against the Gaza Strip. If you agree that Israel has a right to defend itself by launching a military invasion of Gaza, then youll have to agree with apologists for Israel when they insist that Israel is waging war against a terrorist group when the fact of the matter remains that Israel is committing mass murder against a mostly unarmed civilian population. So youre doing an excellent job of boxing yourself in whenever you accept Israeli propaganda points, or whenever you regard Israeli propaganda points as a fact. And youve lost a very important argument to a homicidal monster who knows how to trick you into accepting a false premise.
