Is this a cognitive dissonance "gone wild" situation? I cannot believe that they would be ok with killing so many for an almost impossible goal (you cannot kill everyone in an organisation like Hamas, it is literally impossible).

I used to teach Holocaust studies to year 9 students for over a decade. I also organized visits of Holocaust survivors to come into school and speak to students about their experiences. I always used to say to students in lessons and during the survivor talks that we must learn the lessons of history and act to prevent any future genocides. 'Never again' was the phrase that I used. Now on a daily basis I still cannot believe my eyes when I see another genocide taking place.

The actions of the Western imperialist states in giving Israel political cover for its war crimes in Gaza ,together with the proxy war which the West is fighting in Ukraine against Russia, represent a radical departure from their previous approach to international relations. Now they don't even pretend to pay lip service to international law which represents a dangerous escalation on their behalf towards an approach which can be summed up with the phrase 'might makes right'. This does not bode well for the US ongoing pivot towards China in which the psychopaths in Washington believe they may have to fight a war with Beijing. Obviously, any war with China would rapidly escalate to a nuclear conflict and the death of everything on the planet.

Do you think Dan the US has an appetite for instituting a regime change in Israel? The very survival of the human race may depend on that!
