“Pikuah Nefesh”

In order not to desecrate the sabbath, Israel is delaying its cabinet discussion on the UN ceasefire resolution (with which Israel already says it is “satisfied”) until Sunday morning. Meanwhile thousands of troops continue on their march northward, facing and delivering death, thanks to the clause in Jewish religious law regarding “pikuah nefesh”, which allows the army to fight “when human life is in danger”. I suppose this is just another proof that divine law is more complex than human law.
