I'm a German citizen, by the way. You might like to read my late father's book entitled "Memoirs of a Jewish Journalist in Nazi Germany."
When fighting evil, and both Hamas and Hezbollah are extremely evil, proportionality is a naive concept. And I think the laws for war are garbage. Who, in their right minds, would think that people who chose to go to war will abide by those concepts. Russia has never abided by them. None of the countries in either Africa (the many genocides) or the Middle East (just as many genocides) have abided by them.#
You're expecting uncivilized people to abide by civilized laws?| Good luck with that.
Yes, I would stand by my statements if my side loses. I would be very sad, but I've lost all my life because I stand by principle.
Russia has been developing nuclear bombs for some time now. They have more nuclear bombs than America. They have also made smaller nuclear bombs to explode in the sky, so that they act as an EMP. That means that wherever they explode, the resulting electronic pulse will disable the electricity and every electronic thing in that area. The area will be completely disarmed.
If you think that one can fight that kind of barbarism with rules, good luck to you. You will lose.
There are no ethics in war. War is an evil concept introduced by evil people. However, as evil people (Hamas, Hezbollah, and all Jihadists) insist on war, it is irrational and evil to think one can win peacefully against them. There is no proportionality that can win against them. One has to use superior weapons and superior strategy.
I have spoken out loud for 62 years, and I have never been on the wrong side of history.
