    Isn't calling it a war something you do to establish new rules, not necessarily actions?

      I am sure parallels to Dresden and Hiroshima exist.

      Education is extremely important.

        It’s a war, a war between Hamas and Israel in which Hamas fired the first shot in aggression. Israel is defending itself.

        Not sure if you’ll find many parallels, Hamas is not a sovereign state and nor is there a recognised Palestinian state. In that sense it’s sort of like a civil war (which it is not) and sort of like, what Putin has called, a special military operation, but a purely defensive and justifiable SMO and one with a clearly defined objective - the annihilation of Hamas as a criminal and para military terrorist organisation. But on second thought it’s not an SMO either.

        So for now let’s settle with; it’s a war. Much more to the point.

          The very act of destroying Hamas creates Hamas. I’d call it a Hydra, but it’s much more insidious than that.

              On Bari Weiss’s podcast she interviewed a mom whose 12 and 16 year olds were abducted.

              It’s hard to listen to.

                I don’t disagree. I just think that direction will have to go much farther than what I believe most westerners will ever accept.

                                    China still utilizes slave labor. Russia has committed countless war crimes in the invasion of Ukraine, and assassination is still a preferred political strategy. The military in the Ivory Coast still regularly torture and rape their own citizens. Senegal is a little better, but not much. And do I even need to talk about the UK?
