"Israel’s method of occupation and its military rules of engagement — which are 
supported by the US in spirit and through acts like the recent UN settlement 
resolution veto — openly skirt international law, eliminating any outside 
mechanism for mediating conflict or redressing the grievances of civilians 
harmed by war. Under these terms, where distinctions between civilians and 
combatants are deliberately blurred in order to deepen Israel’s control over 
land gained through military conquest, horrific attacks like the kind allegedly 
witnessed in Itamar become all the more possible."
