Rabbi Dr. Simons reviews the events leading up to Goldstein’s attack. He raises the issue of Goldstein’s prior knowledge of intelligence warnings, that Arabs planned a massacre of Jews — Goldstein was an emergency doctor for the Kiryat Arba Terrorist Attack Response Team — to take place that Purim morning in the Cave of Machpela. He Discusses whether Goldstein “planned” an attack on Arabs or “responded” to what he saw as the Israeli Army’s indifference to an impending attack on Jews. He questions, “What if a Government Fails to Act?” and then analyzes the legal status of “Killings Sanctioned By Law,” discussing “killing as an act of self-defense,” “killing due to necessity,” and “killing during a war.”/blockquote>

You must be drunk out of your little mind tonight if this has become the level of your argument.

She won’t respond…
