Does something like Operation Cast Lead count as ‘collective punishment’ in your book?

re: #317 SanFranciscoZionist

What about Israel refusing to let people cross the border from Gaza?

What about the blockade?

Are these ‘collective punishment’?

No and no on the first two points, and no on the third for as long as the blockades are directed primarily at military munitions and so forth.

I was specifically referring to things like mass deportations, the cutting off of food/water/electricity, all things that have been discussed above.
