53. And - justification is one thing, doing what is right is another.
There is some set of actions that Israel has a "right" to take. Then there is the right action - imo, the action which will do the most to resolve the conflict and reduce future violence.

I do not believe that the two are the same in this case. And I do not believe that Israel is taking the right action when they are killing innocent civilians in these numbers, and sowing the seeds for many more generations of hatred.
