Sometimes but not always. There's more to it in international law. That said, I realize that in arguing caution before leveling accusations of genocide, I am in the minority in this instance. My take is based on what I've read of expert legal opinion on the subject and not on my own evaluation of the IDF's moral position.
The long and short of it is that there are matters of intent that have to be shown in order to have a case for genocide. Thus far, regardless of how we think about the IDF vis war-crimes, I have yet to see a convincing argument for genocide on a legal basis.
You may say that this is a distinction without a difference, and while I'm sympathetic to that idea, I still think it's worthwhile to maintain these sharp legal definitions.
That's a paraphrase of a famous Bertrand Russell quote. The original is as follows; "The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt."
There's also the William Butler Yeats corollary; "The best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity."
Podcast Republic. I don't know if it's the best, but I'm used to it and it does everything I want and nothing I don't want. It's also open source.
Same, but I still use Google docs to store copies of all my published work.
I like Podcast Republic because it's easy to keep it simple for troglodytes like myself who don't want or need all the bells and whistles.
You don't understand basic game theory.
No.
Agreed. Very overrated. I was dissapoint.
