Op Ed Piece on the Palestinian Violation of International Law Called Perfidy
The media needs to learn about this war crime called "Perfidy." Here's the opening paragraph of a great op-ed piece published in today's Washington Times. The author is a widely published professor of International Law at Perdue:
"Israel has just completed an essential defensive operation against terrorists in Rafah. Although televised images of this Gaza operation suggested cruelty and indiscriminate action by Israeli forces, exactly the opposite is true. By deliberately placing young Arab children in the front of large mobs that advanced menacingly upon Israeli soldiers, Palestinian leaders openly committed major violations of the Law of War. There is, in fact, a precise legal term for these violations, a term that applies equally to the Palestinian tactic of routinely inserting scores of gunmen among the lines of children. This codified crime under humanitarian international law is called 'perfidy.'"
