This death is a tragedy. At the same time, I just don't care at this point, which is another tragedy. Israel has taken their revenge plot too far. They have turned the awful deaths of their people into the sad smoke of justification for a genocide that some of their citizens have been hoping and planning for. This is not the middle ages anymore. We know better. You know better. The fact that my government actively supports this breaks my heart all the more.
It’s not a revenge plot. It’s a land grab. The Israelis had this planned out way ahead of time and they were just waiting for an excuse that wouldn’t draw international condemnation. It’s similar to the US moves in Iraq after 9/11. Cheney and his club had that all planned out ahead of time. https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_for_the_New_American_Century
A world class intelligence agency, which would normally know the contents and length of your bowel movement, totally shits the bed and lets an egregious attack play out, while their media assets chalk it up to a "failure of imagination" .
Where have I seen this one before?
