Thank you for this. I would prefer to read and discuss it within this group.

Two - it has been there all along. I'm not surprised by the Progressive Palestinian Coalition rearing its ugly head.

Third - never forget this in discussions . . .

Hamas and Israel signed a ceasefire in MAY 2023.

Only one side behaved like genocidal maniacs and broke it. THAT side deliberately put the citizens they represent as the Government Leadership in Palestine in harms way.

When 45 told the Proud Boys to stand back and stand by - my brother wrote a letter to the editor stating - We are not our Grandparents. Fluff Around and Find Out.

Some 52 year old man in Israel might have read that a few years ago and said - Yup. I'm onboard with that for Israel too.

And me? I agree with him. Israel operated in good faith, The Palestinian Political Leadership (Hamas) did not . . . the world now has to deal with the natural results of people who have had enough.

Remember - there was a Cease Fire in place since May. Hamas owns the reaction of Israel.

They own this.
