Israel’s war in Gaza is chipping away at so much of what we – in the United States but also internationally – had agreed upon as acceptable, from the rules governing our freedom of speech to the very laws of armed conflict. It seems no exaggeration to say that the foundation of the international order of the last 77 years is threatened by this change in the obligations governing our legal and political responsibilities to each other.

    You should go and read some daily mail comments on articles about the war (genocide). They’re a bunch of frothing murderous horrors.

        As someone who has to deal with real people at demonstrations regularly, these horrible genocidal sentiments are not just limited to internet trolls unfortunately.

        Also as much as they are detached from the general population, all the politicians and Israel lobbyists and MIC lobbyists still are real people too.
