Defense Minister Barak requested a legal opinion from Justice Minister Friedmann on attacking Gaza’s residential areas during the war in Gaza. One need not be a jurist to answer. Any yeshiva student knows the answer, “As they have no mercy on you, so you shall have no mercy upon them.”

If you know your enemy is set on your destruction and you know he is on his way to destroy you, meet him in the way, if he will have peace, then peace. If he will not have peace then destroy him even before he arrives to your gates. In other words never let the enemy bring destruction into the land. Have we failed in this?
