Croatia’s Zoran Milanovic says the bombing of civilians in Gaza has gone beyond self-defense
Having the Croatian Foreign Ministry fly an Israeli flag was « idiotic » and inappropriate, President Zoran Milanovic said on Friday, adding that the atrocities by Hamas do not give Israel the right to bomb civilians for revenge.
« I think it was an idiotic move, for all my sympathies for Israel – which they unfortunately wasted after 15 minutes – after the horrors and massacres by Hamas, » Milanovic told reporters who asked him about the flag incident.
« I condemned the killings [by Hamas], and expressed my horror and revulsion, but the right to self-defense does not include vengeance and killing civilians, » he added.
