Israel definition of dual-use is adaptive. Very adaptive.

> Concrete used to build attack tunnels - restrict concrete.

> Burning old tires used as smoke mask to attack border - restrict import of used tires.

> Helium balloons used as incendiary devices - restrict Helium supply.

Those are all real examples from the last few years, btw.

Edit: Basic necessities to sustain life - food, water, medicines are allowed. No need for hyperbole.

If you had a bad neighbor, you would do the same.

Israel restricts flow of dual-use goods [1]. There's nothing wrong with that.

If you had a bad neighbor, which has intentions to build bombs in his basement, you'd damn sure try to restrict what goes into his basement.
