☆ Opinion | Israel, Hamas and the Rules of War
  + stars: | 2023-11-17 | by ( ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +4 min
By placing military targets in and under civilian structures, it is Hamas that violates laws of war. Mr. Bartov is mute about Israel’s hundreds of phone calls to Gazans warning them to leave buildings in which Hamas fighters were located. To the Editor:In an urgent effort to prevent genocide, Omer Bartov writes about the horrific carnage committed by Israel in Gaza. But to live and die in a world that makes distinctions between crimes against humanity, war crimes, genocide, proportionality, etc., you can lose sight how all of it is utter madness. Robert RothNew YorkTo the Editor:Re “Measuring Israel by the Yardstick of a ‘Just War,’” by A. Walter Dorn (Opinion guest essay, Nov. 13):Professor Dorn examines whether Israel is adhering to the moral framework of “just war” theory.

☆ Opinion | Measuring Israel by the Just-War Yardstick
  + stars: | 2023-11-12 | by ( A. Walter Dorn | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +8 min
While Israel easily has just cause and constitutes a legitimate authority, its case is far weaker regarding the other five criteria. In addition, the fact that Hamas has violated these principles does not absolve Israel from an obligation to live up to higher moral standards. So the downside of Israel’s war outweighs any benefit. Israel can rightly claim that its ground invasion helps Israeli forces better distinguish Hamas fighters from civilians. Just-war theory reinforces the human instinct to not only preserve human life but also lament its loss, and to try to find solutions.
