The Barbaric War Against Israel
(Substack) Melanie Phillips - Dozens of Israelis including elderly people, women and small children were abducted from their homes or dragged out of cars, forced into Hamas vehicles and are now being held as hostages in Gaza. This is unthinkable and unspeakable. It is wrong to call this terrorism. It is all-out war against Israel. This was a lethal and overwhelming onslaught aimed at Israeli civilians. Every one of those attacks was therefore a war crime. Whenever Israel has launched military operations in Gaza - which it does only when attacks from there have become intolerable - some in the West complain that its response is "disproportionate." What they mean is that not enough Israelis have been killed.
