As Human Rights Watch warned, Israels recent actions mass arrests; armed raids; the killing of Palestinians, including minors; lockdowns of cities, house demolitions; and air strikes amounted to collective punishment, international laws euphemism for revenge, against Palestinians. In the face of the enduring violence of Israels occupation, and the licence it provides soldiers to humiliate and oppress, ordinary Palestinians have a stark choice: to submit or resist. Ordinary Israelis, on the other hand, do not need to seek revenge on their own account. The Israeli state, military and courts are there every day doing it for them.
