Agreed. But in the context of discussions regarding Israel defending itself, there are always those who will use this commandment to illustrate that even killing in self-defense is wrong. Hence, 768 rockets are little more than mosquito bites. Whereas a successful attempt to destroy Hamas leadership and destroy long range rocket depots is a Biblical violation.

I wrote hastily. Nevertheless, the translations that I cited are accurate, in that this is how they translated the commandment.
