Innocent civilians are being collectively punished in Lebanon by the state of Israel in deliberate acts of terrorism as described in Article 33 of the Geneva Convention.

The unguarded Bush-Blair exchange sounds a bit like the dialog in the excellent David Hare play, Stuff Happens. Hare’s play is highly recommended as a lucid and damning work of political imagination.
