I have been tracking about six news sources since June when I had a crisis of conscience over the fact that my taxes were going to support the IDF bombings in Gaza which have primarily been women and children. As a result of that two months' research, I believe that Netanyahu is pursuing a slow genocide of the Gazan civilian population. CNN does good investigative journalism, as, of course, Reuters and AP do. Unfortunately I have been disappointed in PBS coverage. I also read the supporters' page as it scrolls and the reason seems obvious. I post regularly on FB the info I find on those three sources, citing their names. Amanpour&Co did an interview with an Israeli peace group leader in which she acknowledged her government's culpability in their repetitive declaration of evacuation zones, then bombing schools and hospitals or so close to the hospitals that the ambulances couldn't get to the entrances. West Bank Israeli settlers and the IDF there have killed over 600 Palestinians. So while the world debates whether Iran might expand the war, Israel is expanding the war into the West Bank. Forty former IDF reservists have stated publicly that they will not return to a war zone where the commanders appear fearful of the aggression of the troops they supervise. 80% of the buildings in Gaza have been destroyed. All the water wells have been bombed. There are no trash, garbage or sewage services anymore. That is what caused the polio virus to flourish in the puddles near the tent cities where children drink dangerous water because they are so dehydrated. Three potatoes cost $41. The majority of the hospitals have ceased to function; there are eight for 2.3 million people. 45 US doctors who volunteered came back to write a letter to Biden which testified that every one of them treated children with TWO sniper wounds to the head or chest. If it was anyone except Israel, this would be called murder. If Putin is a bad actor for annexing Crimea, why is Netanyahu not a bad actor for annexing the Golan Heights? Finally, the tunnels in Gaza are ten feet in diameter; if the IDF only wanted to eliminate Hamas, all they had to do was go into the tunnels. Even Israel admits that one third of the original hostages is likely dead. And today, hostage families tried to enter Gaza to make the point that when the government drags its feet in peace/ceasefire negotiations, it is Israeli hostages which suffer. If Netanyahu was serious about a ceasefire why did he have the primary Hamas negotiator in Iran murdered? His first political murder was in 1993. But the US is content to allow him to holler "terrorists" every time dozens or hundreds of Palestinians are bombed. I believe that the world will have to answer for this slow genocide and then, will the Allies pretend horror as if they never had any hint of the devastation? If they don't, they are not watching the news I'm watching. All that is required for history to repeat itself is that we do not learn the lessons of history. It's not killing camps or machetes, but it is genocide of a people and "Bibi" wants to say the Torah supports his actions. I've had three semesters of Old Testament and I can tell you that the destruction of the Canaanites in the O.T. are not in the Torah. They are in the subsequent books of Joshua and the first half of the book of Judges. Rev. M**y Z****r
