Where Is the Outrage?

Disturbingly, Israel Defense Forces, more aptly referred to as Israel Occupation Forces, soldiers are invited to speak at American synagogues and other gatherings, including here on the Central Coast.

Where Is the Outrage?

The past two years have seen damage done on many fronts. In Gaza, tens of thousands of Palestinians have been murdered, virtually all infrastructure has been destroyed, and the land itself has suffered enormous levels of befoulment and pollution.

Strikingly, and perhaps on an unprecedented scale, medical personnel and members of the press have been targeted for elimination. Take a minute to ponder this: Doctors, nurses, and reporters, trying to save lives and report on the ongoing tragedy, have been murdered by a supposed "western democracy."

The much-vaunted international rules-based order has been decimated. Penalties and punishments have been directed against people of good faith who have spoken up against the madness, including people who have supported institutions such as the International Criminal Court. Protesting students and professors have been vilified, arrested, and deported.
