Israel and Yassin

The other day, Israel killed the leader of Hamas – Sheikh Ahmed Yassin. They did it by destroying his car as he left a mosque in Gaza.

There has been much wailing and gnashing of teeth in Europe and the Middle East – mainly condemning Israel for the move. European leaders called it “unlawful”.

I beg to disagree.

Israel is in a war against terrorism. Yassin was the leader of a major terrorist group that has acknowledged responsibility for many terrorist attacks against Israeli civilians. Therefore, in my mind, Israel is justified in killing the leader of the enemy.

Let’s make it simpler: Israel targets terrorists, and sometimes kills civilians in the process. Hamas (and other Palestinian terrorist groups) targets civilians. It’s that simple.
