Hamas's decision to fire rockets in the direction of Ben Gurion Airport
may well have ended any real prospect of a two-state solution. Whether the
regulators and airlines that have stopped flights to and from Israel are
right or wrong, this stoppage cannot possibly be tolerated by a democratic
country that relies so heavily on tourism and international travel. It is of
course a war crime to target an international civilian airport, as Hamas has
clearly done. Israel has every right to keep that airport open, employing all
reasonable military means at its disposal. Since Hamas fires its rockets from
densely populated civilian areas, there will be more Palestinian civilian
deaths.
