Israel is now sustaining a war for its own existence. A nation defending its citizens against terrorist bombings and a military and diplomatic onslaught by an array of Arab foes is practicing survival, not genocide. ↗

The British bombing of Caen beginning on D-Day in particular was stupid, counter-productive and above all very close to a war crime. ↗
