Reply To: Yes – he IS my son!!!

I don’t care if the guy was undressed and handcuffed already – the moment he tried to kill a soldier (or any Jew for that matter – and according to common sense anywhere in the world even a goy) he has forfeit his right to life and can have no complaint if he’s put to death no matter if the circumstances follow “protocol” or not. We are talking about justice and survival here – that’s why they send soldiers into the battlefield, not attorneys.

So please don’t sit there all smug with your hypothetical situations. The fact of the matter is there are numerous documented cases of terrorists who were let out in some prisoner swap or even served their term and went back to terrorist after even getting blood on their hands a second time. If I’m not mistaken the terrorists who kidnapped and killed the 3 boys are a more recent example of this having been released in the Shalit swap.

You want to get hypothetical? What if Azaria didn’t kill this terrorist scumbag and he healed, got let out of jail and G-d forbid went on to attack more innocent people? At least we could be menachem the slained’s families by reassuring them that we had done the “moral” thing.

So go ahead and sit in your tower worrying about your philosophical situations of right and wrong – the rest of us will be down here worrying about yidden’s lives.
