re: If the situation where reversed the terrorist the women were protecting would not only have been willing to gun down all the women to get to Israeli soldiers in their midst, they would have been happy to gun down unarmed Israeli women even if there where no soldiers around. And you know this how?

Its wrong to intentionally kill innocent unarmed non-combatants. These women apparently chose to expose themselves to the risk to act as human shields for terrorists. Once they did that they were no longer innocent non-combatants. I see........if you try to protect your spouse, you automatically become a military person and can be killed without a trial or anything else. You really do believe in democracy, don't you? Israel showed a lot more restraint than most of its neighbors would have. I see.....killing is alright so long as you use restraint. So then, if a mugger kills you tonite but only uses two bullets to do it's okay because he used some restraint? Does that mean he should get off? How about the cops in Britain last year that killed the innocent Brazilian? If they had used restraint, they should have gotten off? Oh wait......they didn't use restraint....they found ten bullets in the dead Brazilian......but still they got off. In your world, is restraint a convenience, a nuance or another example of truthiness? Its hard to keep up with all the changes conservatives are making to the English language.
