4. I spare my sympathy for the victims of genocide and ethnic cleansing.

And the far less than 10% of Israeli Jews who opposed it.

However the large majority of Israelis - with the exception of Palestinian Citizens of Israel of course - were perfectly fine with what was done to Gaza and cheered it on. As they are now cheering on Lebanon and Iran.

Opponents of these genocidal war are few and far between in Israel and they have all my support and sympathy. They are brave beyond measure, enduring arrests, beatings, job losses and ostracism from their fellow Jews.

I would hope that by now people are "getting" what kind of society Israel has become and why the Palestinians and now others have suffered so much. We must stop funding and supporting it, in order to have any chance at peace.
