Let's broaden the inquiry....
Question:
In a conservative Jewish State (let's call it a civilization, all to itself for the sake of argument), why not Kosher violation lynchings, too?
You will say, human rights, etc., of course.
Fighting barbarism, Power's recent argument in the UN, against Russia, most especially, singled out (among many other surrounding lifelong bombers as well) for not bombing civilians, especially Aleppo children, etc., etc.
Human rights is, after all, turn finally and face it, in spite of what the West says and believes to the bottom of its flawed heart, a strictly Western Civilization concept.
Rather like the enlightenment itself....
One might as well argue that it is Protestants who are more enlightened, and therefore less likely to bomb innocent civilians that conservative Catholics or Orthodox Serbs.
Its warrant does not run in either event.
Reminds me a little of my days as an undergrad philosophy student...Jefferson house and all that.
There was one example, among others, trotted out, of behavior that, it was ernestly argued by the professor, no truly civilized people would engage in: baby stomping.
Then I read, during the war in the Balkans, that the Orthodox Serbs argued, that killing Muslim infants saved them the trouble of having to kill them later, when they grew up and had thus become really dangerous.
