Nuttyyahoo is insane. Most Israelis are criminally insane. The society, culture and State are certifiably lunatic - psychopathic, schizoid, narcissistic, psychotic and completely deranged.

They're not unique. Here in the U.S., the percentage of people who protest or who publicly express any outrage about this is minuscule, and there even is very little public outrage against our Government's persecutions and prosecutions against the few who prominently have opposed our Government's donating weapons etc. to complete the genocide and/or ethnic cleansing.

Americans may be ignorant and poorly educated on average with their mainstream media only propaganda but they are not criminally insane like the Israelis. Some American Jews are because the brainwashing is at work from birth in some Jews outside of Israel as it is in Israel.

I will post a link on my FB and X and so on. I suggest we all do. Send the link to our politicians.

This thing is disgusting enough - but what could be more disgusting? That we support it. That we support it via our government that supports it. And what's even more vile than that? That our government never sought our approval. And what's even more vile than that? That not one of those politicians that just urged us to vote for them has turned back to us, their electorate and informed and questioned us.

And lastly what's even more disgusting than that? What could possibly be more shameful than all that?

That we don't give a damn. Have no interest whatever.

We should have a different photo every day on the front page of every newspaper - every day a different photo of a different child buried beneath the rubble in gaza.

With the words: 'we did this'

Wow, you said so well what my own reaction to this is, but what I don't see nor hear from anyone else. Anyway, there are two of us. But why am I not seeing nor hearing this from anyone else?

Caitlyn Johnstone has been a warrior supreme on Israhell, Nuttyahoo, the U.S. empire and the plight of the Palestinians. I used to send letters to the editors of local newspapers here in TN. Censorship took over. Now, I post on well-meaning substacks where they need a little further education.

It is the question isn't it? I don't know the answer. It seems to be the nature of the human reality within which we live. The very nature of human beings en masse. At least in the western world.

Just like they clearly do not want democracy: they do not want to govern themselves, they are irritated enough by a requirement to vote once every four years and resist any demands for any further involvement. Don't they? Isn't it so?

We have to come to terms with that. It seems indisputable on the evidence.

Well perhaps their callous indifference to human suffering is also something we just have to take onboard as being part of a definition of who they/we are. And we just got to come to terms with it.

They seem to have much stronger sense of invulnerability and/or detachment perhaps than I do. I 'feel' so much for the sufferers because I'm always instinctively feeling that could be me. 'There but for the grace of god go I'.

I am frightened for myself. My desire to have all this stop is an expression of a desire to increase my own safety. I simply do not feel safe in such a world.

Apparently they do. We would appear to be virtually a different species.
