It is a complicated thing to try to figure out how to stop this from continuing. I don't have the answers. I know that I want it to stop. I have observed that hate and revenge don't usually stop the violence of power mongers. Self defense is a good thing. Not like Israel's genocide, but not allowing yourself to be attacked if you can do that. What is happening is Gaza is doubly horrible because people are not really allowing themselves to be attacked, but the entire world is assisting Israel to commit genocide.

Also, I live in a very Jewish neighbourhood and I know some are Zionists, others I don't know. I do not want to walk down the street and hate everyone that I see. I have to try to find some humanity in them. It is often very difficult. I saw a car flying an Israeli flag today. I felt like smashing that car. So far I just feel like doing those things. If it morphs into actually doing those things, then I think I will have lost.

Well, Susan, at the genocide’s inception, an I Stand With Israel sign sprouted around the corner from me. I pulled the jeep over, got out, and stomp that motherfucker to death.

I lost NUTHING, in fact in was very satisfying 😁
