There is no trolling there at all. In these discussions, I am not persuaded that policy re Israel can simply gloss over its crimes of war and against humanity. If contrary to my preference, ones decision is to tolerate such crimes then courage and integrity require 2 things: -
- You make an explicit statement to that effect; &
- Explain your reasoning.
I have yet to see any disagreement at all with my understanding of the reasoning at work. That is:
- We afford impunity for war crimes so long as they are committed by Israel
- due to an innate defect in Israelis, who cannot be considered morally competent.
This is the reasoning of people I disagree with. Rather my view is that Israelis are morally competent. Their war crimes should not be tolerated or treated with impunity. By their own conduct, the appropriate punishments are due.
