Israel-Palestine

Fingers crossed they think my MiL is a bit dodgy then as she is tagging along for the NY trip...
I'll keep mine crossed, too, that things are as uneventful as possible for y'all.

No fear on my social media unless they take offence to my many pictures of my grand kds and dogs
Nothing on my body they can take offence to (maybe my face though?)
 
I believe the point is (or should be) that Israel has created an environment in which terrorism can thrive. Extremism doesn’t foment in a vacuum. Violent occupation can and will create and sustain violent responses.
That should be the point yes.
 
I'm way more cynical than most and my bar for politicians is almost on the floor. Rich calling the shots, complicit media, undemocratic system, Overton window, Iraq lies blah blah blah have battered me over the years. However, I always thought that there was a limit - a basic level of decency - a line that would not be crossed. I thought children being blown up would be that line. Even then, I never expected my govt to condemn it - heaven forbid - but I thought they may at least stop supporting it. Turns out there is no line. No basic level of decency. This conflict has shown us who we really are.
 

110 children......seems so few now!
