Sorry, my brain skipped over the word cool and read “most Jews”. No doubt that there are Jews who acknowledge what is actually happening, it is just disconcerting to see how far some people will bend over backwards to make excuses for their own team.
I have this argument with my family all the time when they try to act like there is something to redeem here in America—it is a strength to admit when the rot has spread and the limb can’t be saved in its current form.
Honestly it’s a real fucking bummer. As someone who grew up in an era where a common wish for lottery winners and trophy winners was “peace in the Middle East” in regards to Israel and all of its neighbors, the recent escalation in Gaza has given a lot of us an excuse to learn a lot more about the actual history and unforgivable atrocities that have occurred since the early fifties.
