The Israeli government has cut off food, water, and fuel to 2 million people inside Gaza as part of its campaign to stamp out Hamas terrorism. Collective punishment is not only contrary to international law, it is inhumane and illogical. It is what my community once endured in World War II, all because of the actions of others who happened to share our ethnicity. Have we learned nothing? How will this possibly help deescalate the violence rather than radicalize many more? It is madness.

Humans are just hateful for the most part. 😢

By definition: subtlety, compromise and logic elude them as they are guided by their fear, incompetence & simplistic world-views. Applies to any situation, but particularly this one.
