> Bullies, weapons, power. It's not pleasant or delightful, but it is necessary.
At least some are honest and know that the power affords an escalation in hostilities which oft times are far beyond "necessary".
I lied to myself, and a favor to you readers, when I repeatedly wrote "Israel destroyed" or "the IDF bombed". I should have written "Your cousin destroyed", "Your friend from high school bombed", "Your colleague aimed and snipered". And so on.
The mask of crimes unfolded here is not so trivial, a huge part of the Israeli public takes part in it, and as we know from the first days, hundreds and thousands of them also document themselves in the act, and many others openly call for their extermination. But the majority is not so arrogant and explicit; The majority simply enlists for hundreds of days of reserve "because the country needs to be protected", goes and commits crimes unconsciously, half-consciously, with a silenced and suppressed conscience.
There are a thousand other reasons and excuses, but again, all the reasons and excuses crumble in front of 16 thousand dead children, of which 3,000 people under the age of 5, identified by their names and ID numbers, are crumbling in the face of the destruction of all civilian infrastructure, which does not and cannot have a purely military purpose.
At least some are honest and know that the power affords an escalation in hostilities which oft times are far beyond "necessary".
