More to the point, Israel today has to deal with the rules and expectations of today, not those of the Roman era.
The Russians are not following the rules of the civilized world. They are sanctioned by the West. But Russia is so big so they can get away with it, while everyone else is dependent on trade from the rest of the world to survive.
On the other hand, bloody retribution of the Roman style might wake a few people up.
There are more than a few of the Lefty Israelis complicit in the slaughter.
I'm sure there are a few Tel Aviv lampposts available for them.
Funny how the rules only are applied to the Israelis
After the images seen today, the Palestinians have voided their right to be protected by the rules of war.
This is total war. The time to posture and proclaim the usual Alt Left whine about “disproportionate response” is over.
These barbarians have been coddled for 50 years by the usual collection of brain dead Alt Left political/media figures in the West. After today, toleration for that idiocy is over.
