I am sickened by the fact that Israel, created as a refuge for the Jews after the slaughter of World War II, is rapidly losing its moral high ground by becoming the very murderers they fled in the 1940's.
For years, Hamas has cleverly embedded itself in schools and hospitals so that when Israel targeted them in those buildings, Israel could take the blame for killing innocent civilians as well.
But Israel's targeting of outdoor relief stations and food distribution centers just because the starving people gathered there are desperate Palestinians, is something totally different and inexcusable. It is, instead, naked "genocide."
Whatever happened to "never again"?
Israel can't afford to lose the good will of the western world. It is becoming the enemy. If Netanyahu isn't willing to preserve Israel's standing among nations, he will be replaced. Not another Israeli - Palestinian or Jew - should be sacrificed to his ego.
