> How Palestinians would know they were crossing an invisible line was not made clear to them, the soldiers said. “How they know is a really good question. Enough people died or got injured crossing that line, so they don’t go near it.” Let me get this straight. First you flatten a huge area of their land. (A 1km perimeter around Gaza, on the Palestinian side, represents roughly ~15% of their already small territory.) Then you kill anybody who happens to wander in, without clear warning? "Mistakes were made," I guess. I get Israel's concerns, but I really feel like they do as much as possible to be anti-likeable. There's something deeply ignoble and repulsive about fighting a civilian population in such a heavy handed and punitive way.
