Is killing hundreds of innocent civilians an appropriate response to having 2 of your soldiers kidnapped?

Question

Hypothetically speaking of course. This is confusing to me. I would have to say it's a close call. Please help me here.

Answer 1

hmmm, your hypothetical situation sounds oddly familiar....i dont know, id have to say that your hypothetical situation would send whoever led this assault on humanity straight to hell, though if you really mean Israel whos doin the exact same thing, well give them billions of dollars to continue it.

Answer 2

There is nothing hypothetical about this question. Hypothetically how would you feel if say Japan, invaded the US, change all the customs, made you conform to say Buddhism and killed you if you didn't...Also, let's say Buddhism had this ideal that cultural cleansing was a necessary thing and the more non buddhists you kill the more reward you get when you reach nirvana. So the radical buddhist go to elementary schools, post offices, parks, Disneyland, Denny's and other places of high foot traffic and blow everything and everyone up around them.

That's a hypothetical question but in this case based around facts. The Buddhists are actually Muslims, It's not America, rather Israel that was stolen from the Israelites and Israeli women and children having their body ripped to shreds by shrapnel all in the name of Allah. So now that Israel retaliates with force when their soldiers are kidnapped and the whole world thinks that Israel are terrorists...people are so blind.

A questions put the way you posted would make things confusing andhard to grasp but you have ot look at the whole picture and see a people rpaed of their homes, fighting to preserve their heritage and constantly being attacked by people wanting to destroy them since the beginning of time. The Muslim's acutally root back to the Philistines which have been trying to destroy the Jews all the way back to King David, so it's no wonder that it continues today

I would suggest for you to look at the whole picture before posting your biased hypothetical questions

Answer 3

When they put a terrorist govt in they started this. These missles didn't come from nowhere. They need to leave the Jews alone or pay the consequences. When the govt starts a war, all the civilians suffer too. The other side is throwing missles at Israel and civilians are dying there too. Israel takes care of their soldiers and citizens..
Remember that they kidnapped 1 civilian and 1 soldier and killed the civilian. Then they refused to give the soldier back. What would you like the usa to do if you are kidnapped??

Answer 4

Israel has been pushed for so long and tried to negotiate peace that i'm sure they have had enough.
When you have countries all around you that want you dead and don't recognize you as a human.
Israeli children are actually taught how to recognize a potential suicide person.
Did you ever learn that in school?
Safe to say, yes they have a reason. Justified? Can't really give an opinion because I do not have to live life(for the most part) in fear of being killed or family being hurt or killed.
It is not really all that confusing.

Answer 5

Read between the lines and why everyone seems to attack Israel.
Ask yourself what is so important of this little sliver of land and the people in it.
If I were in Israel's "shoes," I would say enough is enough. Give land away to Palestinians, they attack you and kidnap one soldier to release 1000.
Get real.
Hezbollah takes two soldiers and they shouldn't expect a response? They got a war.
I like Israel's response. I'm not for war but if someone kept coming after me, I hope to give him more than a bloody nose.

Answer 6

It shouldn't confuse you at all. Ever since Israel was created there hasn't been a day of peace in the region. Soldiers are supposed to fight and possibly be killed or 'kidnapped', (I prefer to call it 'taken prisoner') that's their job. Israel is way out out control, and should be stopped. But, that's nearly impossible if the biggest bully boy in the world is your ally.

Answer 7

Israel has each and every top to take care of itself. If Lebanon had requested for help to eliminate or ward off Hezbollah from being in there usa contained in the first position this received't have occurred. None the a lot less, innocuous human beings die in warfare and that is reality. Israel is doing the interest no one had to do and the Lebanese human beings pick to assist contained in the efforts to rid this international of terrorist.

Answer 8

Nope, and I wonder why the "international community" is so down with that, when we had to threaten them with a vial of anthrax to get at Saddam who is definitely a little bit more guilty than a petty kidnapper. :(
Israel is in way too much control of US who has way too many resources and not enough rational reasoning and intelligence to really be the "mother" of the world.

Answer 9

Gosh, your question is so pointed and clear that I cannot see how any civilised human being can say yes it is. I am appalled and disgusted at the response of Israel with the complicity of the USA.

Opinionated, well why don't Israel attack those that threatened it, instead of its cowardly action against the Lebanese.

Answer 10

You don't seem to worry when the muslims blow up buses full of little kids and women! All of a sudden every single person counts!

Your siding is showing!

The total thought of the Qurán is summed up in;

Qurán 9:5
""The Verse of the Sword""
"" Fight and slay the pegans wherever you find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem""

This shows the LOVE and PEACE that this book and islam is all about!

Answer 11

the answer for ur question is the world today are unfair. the world today becomes like whoever has the power wins.

the only solution i see right now is do not call the U.N. or security councilor because they will not do anything. but call God the one who has the power over thing, and the one who will gather all the dead to him to put justice between them.
