The problem isn't the words, it's the pictures being live-streamed to hundreds of millions screens worldwide.

Israel is going out on a limb that isn't strong enough to hold it, as the West has about half a dozen other crises.

Europe thinking it can colonize Russia for the third time in as many centuries. "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result."

The US heading into a serious social, political, cultural, economic and debt crisis.

Russia and China looking to lead the South away from the rentiers of the West, etc.

There is a lot more than Israel getting its hands bloody, but this doesn't seem to be sinking in.

It seems the only path Israel is determined to take, will be that wider war. Which will leave it a smoking ruin.

All the lawyerizing doesn't matter, when it's the law of the jungle.
