Other than SJ, I have found the viewpoints interesting and informative.  But I think I may have suddenly been felled by the flu, so don't feel up to responding individually.

What I found interesting about the article was that it differentiated between State-sanctioned repression and non-State actors.    If Ahad was Isreali and similarly treated by Hamas, would her story have gained international interest and condemnation toward Hamas and Palestinians?   But shouldn't oppressive behavior be universally condemned?

As to the last part of your post: yes it would, and, yes it should.
Hope the flu doesn't hit too hard. Did you get your shot?
