Despicable that a man who must have visited Auschwitz, Yad Vashem and more, is knowingly and willingly responsible for the barbaric deaths of so many.
Israel might win this war, but just like with Israel before, I wouldn’t be surprised if in 10-30 years Gazans gain sovereignty and international protection, once the media has been let in and has been able to report extensively about the terror that unfolded there.
Any survivors in Gaza will be hell bent on destroying Israel after this. For their own survival one would thing think the people of Israel would put a stop to their government’s genocide. Any nation that doesn’t strongly condemn this in word and action is complicit.
The fact that the American Right currently supports Netanyahu’s genocidal ambitions while simultaneously undermining Ukraine’s brave attempts to defend its sovereignty exposes how utterly despicable they have become. They are beyond inhumane, they are the most selfish version of politics that can possibly exist and 30% of the country believes they are “the good guys”.
It’s disgusting to watch, it’s disgusting to know that I share allegiances with people like this and that they are destroying what it means to be considered “American”.
I know one thing about this situation and the one in Ukraine: a huge number of our citizens who think they will end their days in Heaven, are seriously deluded.
I came to the same conclusion sometime back; the Israelis’ are intent on starving the Palestinians to death and the world has looked the other way. In fact, the USA has basically supported Israel. Very very sad.
We are a sad and broken species.
Thanks for the Harari quote. It ought to be writ large across all media so that it might sink in to humanity what a dreadful state we are in.
I’ve commented on this before, so I’ll keep it brief, but whoever supports Israel in this, whether as unbridled revenge or as a prophylactic “cleansing” is not only supporting the genocide, but in many instances calling anyone who takes mere pause on the matter an antisemite. These supporters may eventually disown this blood- and disease-letting, but the stain will remain whether in the form of suriviving Palestinians or all the new antisemites these supporters have been busy discovering and discerning, not to mention those created more organically out of secular disgust. None of the 90% of my Jewish friends who I remain in touch with through this feel one iota safer or more secure. Quite the opposite.
I hear that many had preexisting hunger conditions.
