Targeted Killings By The Israel Defense Forces
Targeted killings by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), sometimes referred to as targeted prevention ( he, סיכול ממוקד ') or focused foiling, is a euphemistic military phrase for extrajudicial killings, murder or assassination outside of the battlefield. Such acts have been carried out repeatedly over the course of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict against persons accused of carrying out or planning attacks on Israeli targets in the West Bank or inside Israel. Nils Meltzer writes that "The term 'targeted killing' denotes the use of lethal force attributable to a subject of international law with the intent, premeditation and deliberation to kill individually selected persons not in the physical custody of those targeting them". The Israeli army maintains that it pursues such military operations to prevent imminent attacks when it has no discernible means of making an arrest or foiling such attacks by other methods. On 14 December 2006, the Supreme Court of Israel ruled ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
