- jfengel 2y agoPerhaps because it's hard to take the paper seriously without a consideration of Israel's point of view? I'm not trying to justify any of Israel's actions. I personally have mixed opinions, and for some, I do think that serious international crimes have been committed. But the doesn't take into account that at least some of Israel's actions might legitimately be motivated by self defense. That's not how you formulate a framework; that's how you concoct a screed. It's a list of grievances, not an argument.
