Backed by arms shipments from the US and their own production, I'm confident that Israel has the capability of achieving some of their military goals.

However, the world's trust that the Israel government and military command has lost for their people will be much harder to recover. Unless there's eventually a trial on the scale of Nuremberg charging Netanyahu, the ruling party, responsible government officials, domestic and foreign military contractors, settlers and soldiers for crimes against humanity, I cannot trust that Israel means peace when it speaks it, or that any goods and services coming from Israel aren't rigged with bombs and malware.

I have nothing against Jewish people, but the atrocities committed by the Israeli government tarnish the reputation of Isreal's people and businesses. And as a Canadian, I bear some responsibility for not pressuring my government strongly enough to condemn the terrible conduct over the past year either.
