My lack of understanding is how Israel supporters can live with the murder of thousands of children, the wholesale demolition of living quarters, schools and hospitals, destroying wells and sources of food and drinking water, restricting food and medical aid to Gaza. For a few months since October '23 I could have excused it as collateral damage from a conflict, but it’s gone on far too long, Israel has evaded a negotiated peace like the plague, and the last 20 months of the conflict have been too one-sided to hold up to scrutiny.
