Why is it OK for Israel (for anyone) to kill?
I am saddened by what is going on in the Gaza strip. Israel’s, killing, maiming innocent children, hardly qualifies under the axiom of “THE END JUSTIFIES THE MEANS”. What end? It seems there’s no end, only beginnings for more mayhem. Technological war, blitzkrieg itself, just perpetuates the disquiet and thus, allows no healing, only relapse.
During his visit to Israel on July 2008, President-elect Barack Obama told the media: “If somebody was sending rockets into my house where my two daughters sleep, I’m going to do everything in my power to stop that. I would expect Israelis to do the same thing.” However, on the slaughter of Palestinian children by Israeli forces, Obama has failed to condemn Israel and seems to espouse sickening contradictions.

There is so much depravity in this world perpetrated by man on man. We are supposed to be the intelligent animal. Will we ever start using that intelligence? Dismally, I think not. thinkingblue
PS: If the Palestinians were launching a blitzkrieg upon Israel and innocent Israeli children were being slaughtered with the help of a Super Power, I would feel as appalled. No one is in the right here, only wrong is going on. It is wrong to kill, it is especially wrong to kill innocent children who did not ask to be born into insanity. There are no words for the gloom that’s happening, it should not be taking place and should end. But if everyone looks away, worse, condones it, these macabre wrongs will never be righted and the guiltless will go on suffering. Deeply paying for the inanity of those who are suppose to protect them. The silly sophomoric,” IT’S YOUR FAULT, NO IT’S YOUR FAULT, MOST ASSUREDLY IT’S THEIR FAULT”, doesn’t work any more! If we care anything about our planet, if we care anything about our children, we must all seek ways to end the savagery.
