Ki Teitzei: War and the Innocent Bystander

From the archives of Nishma's Online Library at http://www.nishma.org/, we have chosen an article that relates to the week's parsha, both to direct you to this dvar Torah but also for the purposes of initiating some discussion.

This week's parsha is Ki Teitzei and the topic is the response to terrorism. In the response to terrorism, there is always a great possibility that innocent individuals will also be hurt and killed. That is the pragmatic reality but how do we understand this action within the Torah's moral perception? War and the Innocent Bystander is at http://www.nishma.org/articles/insight/insight5762-06.html
