It is Israel's war.montelatici, et al,
The Islamic Resistance Movement, and the affiliated terrorists, insurgents, jihadists and Fedayeen, KNOW that in any optional conflict (discretionary aggression), moral responsibility for the damage and devastation are attributed to the aggressor. In the case of the last Gaza Operation (2014 Operation Protective Edge) --- the acts of war were initiated by the Islamic Resistance Movement as the government representative of the Gaza People.
(COMMENT)Hoss is the poster boy for cognitive dissonance, and a moron.
This is just another case of the Arab Palestinian demonstrating that they are not capable of taking responsibility for their actions.
Internationally recognized is the concept that "Aggression is the use of armed force by a State against the sovereignty, territorial integrity or political independence of another State, or in any other manner inconsistent with the Charter of the United Nations, as set out in this Definition." That "the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any State."
- On 12 June 2014, three Israeli teenagers were abducted in the West Bank: Hamas political chief Khaled Meshal said he could neither confirm nor deny the kidnapping of the three Israelis, but congratulated the abductors.
- On 20 August, Saleh al-Arouri, an exiled Hamas leader based in Turkey, claimed responsibility for the kidnapping of the three Israeli teens: "Our goal was to ignite an intifada in the West Bank and Jerusalem, as well as within the 1948 borders... Your brothers in the Al-Qassam Brigades carried out this operation to support their imprisoned brothers, who were on a hunger strike... The mujahideen captured these settlers in order to have a swap deal." Palestinian security forces said the kidnappings were organized by Saleh al-Arouri.
- 1 May to 11 June, six rockets and three mortar shells were launched from Gaza towards Israel.
- 12 June through 5 July 117 rockets were launched from Gaza.
- On 5 July, Hamas official Osama Hamdan said rocket fire would continue until Israel lifted its import restrictions on Gaza and the Palestinian Authority transferred money to pay Hamas civil servants.
The hostile actions of the Islamic Resistance Movement, leading up to Israeli intervention, set the pattern of past criminal behaviors and established credibility to the threat of continued rocket fire from Gaza into the sovereignty of Israel. The threat was delivered in the form of coercion (rocket fire would continue until their demands are met) to extract political and financial concessions.
The picture is the outcome of their negotiated attempt to hold peace hostage. The Islamic Resistance Movement and their constituents that lend material support to the Islamic Resistance Movement MUST at some point take responsibility for their hostile actions and accept the consequence as self-inflicted.
