   Shared this before, so I'm not going to be elaborate about it.

   80 years ago, the baseball war came to an end. Two countries who loved the game went to battle, and millions perished in the conflict.

   It began with Japanese planes repeatedly strafing and bombing a baseball diamond at Hickam Airfield on December 7, 1941.

   It ended when "Fat Man" exploded right above a baseball stadium near the Mitsubishi plant in Nagasaki on August 9, 1945.

   War is not a series of games.

   Analysis

   To understand this changing map is to understand the why of the Israel-Palestine conflict.

   It shows a century of Israel's expulsion of Palestine's indigenous people from their land.

   In 1917, much of Palestine was publicly owned land, & Israel argues the land was thereby "not Palestinian".

   In fact, Palestine has a millennia-long existence as a regional entity under various overlords.

   In just over four months in #Gaza, there have been more #children, more journalists, more medical personnel, and more @un staff killed than anywhere in the world during a conflict.

   It is with profound regret that I must now inform you that @UNRWA has reached a breaking point, with Israel’s repeated calls to dismantle it and the freezing of funding by donors at a time of unprecedented humanitarian needs in Gaza.

   Some 56 years ago, on April 4, 1967, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. articulated the devastating impact of the war on both impoverished Americans & Vietnamese peasants, asserting it was a moral imperative for America to take radical, nonviolent steps to end the conflict.

   It was a speech that surprised many of his supporters.
