What makes it worse, is so many people trying to push a 'one side bad, one side good' narrative. Today there are people justifying, and in some places celebrating, the murder of hundreds of civilians, the severe injuries of thousands in terror attacks, as if the very real problems there make mass murder acceptable..
Yeah - they appear not to understand that there is a difference between hamas & the Palestine people in general. Nice of Israel to "warn" women & children to give them a chance to ?? do what - they arent allowed to leave. The wall prevents that!
The real two-state solution would be one state for everyone who wants to live in peace, and one for the extremists on both sides to fight with each other. It's a cascading tragedy: hamas terrorists mass murdered people in Israel - the count is getting close to a thousand dead, thousands injured - and now the retaliation will kill not only hamas, but also many people in Gaza who are as innocent as the ones being retaliated for.
That's the first time I ever thought about that! Like a Coliseum, and throw the extremists from both sides in, and let them battle it out. (I remember thinking, during the VN war that we needed to put Tricky Dick into the ring with Mao and Pol Pot and let them fight it out.)
Joan, justice never seems to come into the thinking when these tragedies happen. somewhat more one-sided than that.
