Where is the "humanity" in humans?

"War is a racket" is a small fascicule that I recommend to anyone thinking about war, any war. when Hamas attacked and took hostages, I must say that I was very angry at them. How could they do something like this?

But now, Netanyahu and the President of Israel seem to be going for a genocide, and all my good will toward these leaders has evaporated.

Netanyahu has encouraged settlers to go where it is illegal for them to settle. He has also helped Hamas financially, I heard it was so that the PLO and Mahmoud Abbas would be weakened. He complains about Hamas, and he is not wrong, but his hands are dripping with blood too.

For some reason, the US has been supporting Israel financially since its inception in 1948, [year of my birth]. We give Israel more money to support it than the State of Israel is getting from its own citizens in taxes. Why?

I weep from rage and helplessness at the carnage I see unfolding. I've told my MoCs "not in my name". Stop it. but they do not listen.

I wish we could do better.

Thank you. That anyone would advocate for the slaughter of a single child is unthinkable.
