In reply to the discussion: Palestinian Villages May Soon Go Dark: Israeli Government To Remove Solar Panels And Wind Turbines [View all]kayecy
(1,417 posts)125. I wish I could be so indifferent to my government going to war.........
how do you know that we are prepared to kill as as many.... Personally i have no idea what the govt of israel is planning on doing,
The GOI have never indicated that the number of likely civilian deaths has been a factor in their decision to go to war. Not in 57, 67, 73 or the various Lebanese wars. As a serving IDF officer, you must have taken part in discussions cocerning the morality of war. Has the question of whether Israel should consider the cost in lives in any decision to go to war ever come up?
Now how about answering the question...In your personal opinion, how many Iranian deaths are acceptable in any attempt by Israel to delay Iran's nuclear development?......If you insist on dodging this question, at least say whether you consider that getting rid of Sadam was worth the 100,000 plus Iraqi deaths which was the result.
...........................................................
you ask of evidence?...i don't have any, thats for sure,
So you admit you are ignorant of the facts.....You are so indifferent to the morality of a major decisions about to be taken by your democratically elected government that you wash your hands of the matter and are happy to remain ignorant!.......A citizen living under a dictatorship could legitimately claim no responsibility for his government's actions......A citizen of a democracy has no such excuse!
.............................................
so at least you do admit that Iran is helping hizballa in their past attacks on israeli cities
And the US was helping Israel in their past attacks against Lebanon.....What point are you trying to make?
..............................................
.....and they have stated publicly they want to remove israel
I wonder why you cannot dig up a single independent reference to this claim?

So, you think Israel would be totally justified in demolishing those solar panels and wind turbines?

You aren't seriously arguing that building solar panels is about "Demonizing Israel".

The solar panels do no harm. There's no way that they could threaten Israeli security.
