I have seen no evidence that this is some small inner circle around Netanyahu. Rather, this savagery has forced me to call into question not only how deep this venom goes, but everything that goes into allowing it to exist. The money, the weapons, the diplomatic cover at the U.N, the pressure campaigns from the U.S. on the ICC and ICJ, the propaganda that this foreign nation is an ally despite everything pointing to the contrary, the fact that there are laws in the majority of U.S. states that prevent me from openly boycotting this ONE nation, and the outright McCarthy style fear mongering and illegal repression of basic first amendment rights makes the idea that I could ever, in good conscience, support ANY government responsible for so much evil seem like a nonstarter in my lifetime.

But hey, things change. Maybe Israel will oust their modern day Nazi party members, give back all of the stolen land, pay to rebuild Gaza, jail everyone that made this genocide happen, actively seek to end their apartheid system, sign peace deals with all of those around them, and stop spending millions of dollars in U.S. politics to allow actual opposition.

You totally nailed it! The utter lack of a moral compass in Netanyahu and the RW settlers is horrifying, and the Felon is their top cheerleader. I loathe what the Israeli regime is doing to the Palestinians, and I know there is support for these atrocities. I donโ€™t support what our govโ€™t is doing either, and there must be Israelis who are outraged at the crimes against humanity that their govโ€™t is committing in their name. The world is teetering on the edge of the abyss.

And Iโ€™ve never known any entity, human or organization, that willingly admits guilt or voluntarily makes restitution to its victims. Thatโ€™s what legal systems are supposed to do, if theyโ€™re not stressed to the breaking point, and ours is just about there. ๐Ÿคฌ
