need to brush-up on their comprehension of international law. The Likud DOES NOT have a "right of self-defense" against a society they have under illegal military occupation.

That would be like claiming the German military had the "right of self-defense" against the French civilians they had under illegal military occupation. Utterly ridiculous.

Not to mention that the Likud INTENTIONALLY fomented this conflict, it's the Palestinians who are counter-attacking in self-defense, and to the Likud's great lament, fighting back against illegal military occupation is specifically NOT "terrorism" by international treaty, no matter how many times NuttyYahoo falsely lies otherwise.
