The Irgun would post signs up in Hebrew, Arabic and English warning civilians away from areas where they would be attacking British soldiers. Even at Deir Yassin, they brought a sound car up to the gate and warned the residents in Arabic that they would be advancing on the village, and telling them that there was transport to the Old City of Jerusalem. In fact, 200 Arabs were safely transported there on a flatbed truck. The 105 civilians found dead among the 145 Iraqi irregulars killed in that battle were those that decided to stay behind.
I’ll follow that tradition. Hizbullah is not fit to shine the shoes of the Irgun or the IDF and IAF, and I’d prefer to keep it that way. I’ll gleefully bury the Hizbullah, but with as few civilian casualties as is practical.
When someone comes to kill you, rise up and kill him first. What Arab in the surrounding countries isn't taught from a very early age that glory is to be obtained to slaughtering Israelis or occupying Jews?
