Who are the Israelis?

[P F Tinmore]

From what I’ve read elsewhere, the Israeli missile defense system was very effective in intercepting the barrage of rocket fire from the Islamic terrorist enclave of Gaza. In spite of the Iranian welfare money used to arm Hamas and Islamic gee-had, the missile salvos had little effect.

I suspect the next episode of Islamic terrorist attacks will cause Israel to respond forcefully.

The Shia Iranian Mullocrats will have a good laugh at the death and destruction in Gaza brought to their Sunni errand boys.

That’s what israel has decided is a justifiable cost to protect its citizens.

I suppose you’re suggesting that the Arabs-Moslems who were whacked as part of the Israeli retaliation are worth $200 per Islamo-rocket?.

Conceptualizing and Measuring Cost-of-Life vs Measuring the Cost-of-Death?

Of course, this is very subjective. But the real question here is, and what our friend "Tinmore" truly scoffs at, is really about the issue of "pricing a life."

It costs Israel $80,000 to shoot down a $200 Hamas rocket.

(COMMENT)

What "Tinmore" is doing here, is laughing at the cost differential between how much more are the Israelis willing to pay (their ethical drive) in order to protect life and property, --- versus --- how much are the Arab Palestinians will to pay to protect their constituents life and property.

Characteristics of a Hostile Arab Palestinian population:

✦ Inability to feel sympathy for others or to understand.
✦ The ability and willingness to use others around them to personal gain
✦ Lack of real emotion in response to events, limited capacity to understand the true impact on society, the family, and themselves.​

For the Israeli → Life means so much more. But to the Arab Palestinian, lives are but mere poker chips, to be placed at risk on the gamble that the leadership will get so much more for themselves.

While Hamas pays youth 100$ to go get shot at confrontations and strap a suicide vest,
Israelis exchange 1,027Jihadi filth for one soldier and go to war to find the bodies of 3 Israeli kids.

You just keep inciting and pushing hot air from thousands of miles away, knowing the result will be only more Arabs senselessly sacrificing their lives for Your hatred of Israel, for an ideology that murders more of their own than Israel would ever manage in 71 years of its modern independence.

How many Arabs have died for their senseless wars against Israel?

The tactical danger to Israeli Sovereign Territory is not any less dangerous than the tactical danger to Israeli activities in Area "C" threats.

To my knowledge, Israel, as a nation, and the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) do not consider people and personnel as an expendable supply or combat consumable (cannon fodder). The use of people and personnel in the role of an expendable is well below the threshold of their value and potential. It is not a concept in the vocabulary of an ethical nation or operational military decision process. While the Hostile Arab Palestinians (HoAP) may use their own people to in the role of shields, hostages and concealment devices, it is NOT the policy of Israel to exploit “the civilian population and individual citizens." It is the purpose of the IDF, and the associated police, security services, and emergency responders that civilian population and individual citizens enjoy the general protection against the dangers arising from both allied and hostile military operations.

Further, it is NOT the policy of the State of Israel to utilize the presence of any civilian population in a role to prevent or delay any legitimate military target, from an attack from the opposing force. It is also not a policy or a tactical practice of the IDF to intentionally position any civilian population for the sole purpose of staging a media event or purposely set the conditions such that civilian casualties would be incurred.

While the HoAP has demonstrated over and over again the callous indifference for the life of its civilian population and acted in direct and intentional violation of Customary and International Humanitarian Law, the Israelis do not condone or encourage such actions.

An Iron Dome missile currently costs at about $50K,
there're no more $200 Hamas rockets, the manufacturing and materials have become much more expensive as Egypt has taken strict control of Sinai, and since supply has been limited to providers at greater distances the cost of transformation and conversion has changed the equation. Also important is the fact that Hamas are now using distance controlled launchers, making every loss of equipment a bigger loss.

Like You, their handlers in the Gulf and east are just blinded by an obsession cannot see anything beyond,
that pride never paid off in the long run, Arabs always get the headlines and the numbers, Israelis the investments and leadership.

If You didn't pay attention so far, numbers have never been in favor of Israel, but even with that magnitude,
Baruch Hashem, look at Israel and look at all our enemies - all are destined to be served with historic justice in spite of numbers.
