The killing of civilians, bombing of buildings, use of banned phosphorus and other acts of barbarity must be condemned by the IDF are acts of terrorism and must be condemned.

Sympathy for the favorite nation, facilitating the illusion of an imaginary common interest in cases where no real common interest exists, and infusing into one the enmities of the other, betrays the former into a participation in the quarrels and wars of the latter without adequate inducement or justification.” ~George Washington, ~page 269 of The 5000 Year Leap.<br><br>“The nation which indulges toward another habitual hatred or habitual fondness is in some degree a slave. It is a slave to its animosity or to its affection, either of which is sufficient to lead it astray from its duty and its interests." ~ George Washington<br><br>"Peace, commerce and honest friendship with all nations; entangling alliances with none." ~ Thomas Jefferson “A passionate attachment of one nation for another produces a variety of evils.
