"And they shouldn’t. The Gaza holocaust is the product of the way the world was before it happened. Our society birthed it into existence, and now it’s staring us all right in the face. This is who we are. This is the fruit of the tree of what western civilization has been up until this point."
The problem is not just western civilization, grisly as it is. Genocides, horrors and atrocities are found in other times and other civilizations.
The problem is people. Gaza could stop today, and humans would just move on to some other abomination.

Once you have that, you can do whatever you want. At least that is how the story goes. So we need to teach our children differently. It has been that way for centuries. People who live in castles are the best. The rest are servants.
