The US State Department basically takes the exact same line I've been pushing for the last few pages.
Kim Jong Un could claim that his people are well-fed and happy. So? Perhaps might makes right, but does incest make right?

Israel has a right to defend itself. What part of that are you arguing with, and why?
As laid down by international bodies, the manner in which Israel is defending itself is criminal. Very simple.

Think of Martin and Zimmerman: let's say Martin sought Zimmerman out (even as Zimmerman was doing the same) and threw a punch. Florida law being much less "merciful" than international law tends to be, Martin's subsequent shooting death would be considered lawful. But if Martin had run off to his own house to throw rocks at Zimmerman from the windows, and Zimmerman had responded by setting Martin's house on fire, he would rightfully face a very long prison sentence, even in Florida.
