Nobel winning Hiroshima survivor's Gaza comparison angers Israel

https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/israel-criticises-atomic-bomb-survivor-over-hiroshima-gaza-comparison

“In Gaza, bleeding children are being held by their parents. It’s like in Japan 80 years ago.”

Toshiyuki Mimaki said Gaza workers deserved a Nobel prize after his organisation was given the award…

"To be sure, the American political spectrum is very different, as are the times. Yet the general lesson does suggest itself: the left has to hold together with the the center-left, and their energies have to be directed at the goal rather than at each other."

The American left makes itself impotent over and over by refusing to build solidarity. The left tears away at its own, doing the work of the right for it.

Since I posted recently critical commentary about how Jill Stein and her supporters are not even pretending to hide their hope to throw the election to Trump by siphoning off Democratic votes and some Stein supporters jumped all over me for posting that commentary, these wise words of Timothy Snyder in his recent essay about how to stop fascism have been much in my mind:

"Coalitions are necessary. In 1932, in the crucial German election, the far left and the center left were separated. The reasons for this were very specific: Stalin ordered the German communists to oppose the German social democrats, thereby helping Hitler to power."

"If the strategy [of lying] isn’t brilliant, though, and if he has evidence that it in fact lost him an election, why return to it again and again?

I think the answer is that disasters can be a major spur to solidarity and unity—and Trump, as an instinctual gutter fascist, loathes solidarity, and rejects it even when it could plausibly be used to his advantage."

"Western NC is intensely Republican. So the Trumpy disinformation campaign will disproportionately hurt Trump supporters. That’s malevolent."

"We need to work together to rebuild and recover from a catastrophic disaster like this one - and spreading false information to sow chaos hurts real people. Politicians, billionaires and grifters who peddle lies during a time of crisis should be held accountable."

~ North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper, as quoted by Brian Stelter

The editorial says,

"The most unhelpful thing any politician—or anyone else—can do right now is spread misinformation and tell people that their government isn't doing anything to help them. Sowing the seeds of political division is always an unnecessary and tiresome endeavor. But doing so in times of great need, when unity is paramount, is particularly shameful."

"Two of North Carolina's largest newspapers — The Charlotte Observer and The News & Observer — collaborated on an op-ed published Sunday, publicly condemning Donald Trump's response to Hurricane Helene, which has left over 200 people dead, and an 'untold number of people missing,' according to The New York Times."
