Assassination Isn't Self-Defense
Hartford Courant Editorial
August 30, 2001
Israel's government is not persuasive in arguing that it is acting in
self-defense when it kills Palestinian leaders it describes as terrorists.
The most recent use of the misguided policy of assassinations was the airborne
missile attack by Israeli forces Monday that took the life of Mustafa Zibri,
one of the top leaders of the Palestine Liberation Organization, in his office
in the West Bank city of Ramallah.
The attack on Mr. Zibri might have had even worse consequences. His
headquarters was on the third floor of an apartment building housing many
civilians, including 20 American citizens living temporarily in the occupied
territories. Fortunately, none was hurt.
This was not self-defense. It was the calculated killing of a Palestinian
leader that violated international law - the Geneva Conventions - and the norms
of conduct expected of a civilized nation.
Governments should not be in the business of killing national leaders. When the
United States attempted taking out foreign leaders through covert actions, it
was justifiably and universally criticized. Israel should be held to no less a
standard.
Moreover, Israel's use of U.S.-supplied aircraft in that raid and others
against Palestinian security headquarters probably violated this country's Arms
Export Control Act, which limits the use of American weapons to legitimate
defensive purposes. The Bush administration should make a legal determination
of whether Israel is breaking that law.
Israelis understandably are tired of suicide bombings and the shelling of their
neighborhoods by Palestinians. But assassinations do not serve the cause of
peace.
Terrorizing tens of thousands of civilians is not a sensible way to fight
terrorism. Surely Prime Minister Ariel Sharon doesn't believe that he can
extinguish Palestinian aspirations and their fury by tightening the noose with
military occupation. What, other than heightened tension and more bloodshed,
has his policy produced?
Even the Bush administration, which has routinely sided with Israel, condemned
Israel's recent aggression.
It is time to get back to the peace table. The Palestinian Authority must crack
down hard on radicals who plot attacks on Israeli civilians. Israel must stop
the quarantine of Palestinians in their villages and homes and withdraw its
troops from land it occupies. Those actions on both sides will create an
atmosphere for talks.
"When a Jew, in America or in South Africa, talks to
his Jewish companions about 'our' government, he means the
government of Israel."
- David Ben-Gurion, Israeli Prime Minister
