Still no straight answer JI.
No deflections or waffle, this is a thread about Israel. How many deaths would it take before you’d call ‘enough’?
I’m saying ‘enough’ now, Gurney. Is that straight enough for you?
I believe in the sanctity of human life. I grieve over any violent deaths … Israel, Gaza, Syria, Sudan, Iraq, Armenia or in the womb. Im not selective. I don’t rejoice at the deaths of SS einsatzgruppen who shot women and babies into forest graves or Isis jihadis who beheaded whole villages or Hamas fanatics who ripped babies from their mother’s wombs. I feel saddened by the death of the misguided lad who took a pop at Trump and feel compassion for his poor parents trying to come to terms with it.
The world’s a broken place and there are incredibly tough calls to make. Say it ain’t so! But I start from lamenting the darkness at the heart of men who hold human life so cheap and forces us to engage with the concept of ‘the lesser of two evils.’
