Opinion | Ruthless and lawless: Beastly Netanyahu on a deadly rampage

Israel has gone stark raving mad. Within 48 hours, its tanks twice blasted the headquarters and compound of the UN's peace-keeping forces in Lebanon where 410 Chinese soldiers are on active duty. Two UN peacekeepers were injured, with security cameras, smashed, presumably, to destroy evidence of its illegal acts. UN troops were ordered not to return fire but to seek refuge in bunkers. Netanyahu, lying through his teeth, flatly denied these attacks.

Hong Kong's courts have adopted a multifaceted approach in balancing the relationship between national security and human rights.
