“Down the rabbit hole” is as good of a description as I can think of.

Forgive me if this is harsh, but here goes. As background, I should say that I have relatives on my father’s side who were among the founders of the state of Israel, plus uncles and aunts who worked in various Labor governments and in the diplomatic corps. I have Israeli first cousins whom I love dearly and try to visit wherever possible.

If you know the legal definition of apartheid (below) Israel is an apartheid state, plain and simple. Hamas knew just what it was doing in its barbaric slaughter of innocent Israelis on October 7th. It knew that its attack would provoke a horrendous overreaction by the abominable Netanyahu administration. Finally, it knew that the
overreaction would conclusively turn Western world opinion against Israel. I dare say Hamas got what it wanted.

The accepted “principle” that one should take sides here is equally barbaric, as if we should root for innocents on either side to die. Myself, I’m for life period.

Very well stated, John. I am in total agreement with you (stop rolling your eyes, I know we don’t always see eye to eye but…). The news reports on all sides seem to be down the rabbit hole for offering their opinions with a lot of prejudice for the side they most honor. The difference between the WP and Times is clear on that. The TV news outlets are as you say. I do not watch CNN but do catch PBS, which is getting progressively repetitive on the subject in a non constructive way. I believe that yes, of course Al Jazeera is slanted for the Palestinians but I do not hear or watch any Israeli news. The Day from Germany is my main source of tv news and it is my opinion that they are the least biased of all outlets. Good reporters, good question. Think the official outlet is DT News. Give it a try. As an aside, let me say how disappointed in Biden and his very strong support of Israel along with Winken,, Blinken and Nod’s very strong “I am a Jew and I stand with you” support as well as Austin’s strong ties to Rayethon and the war machine. I think Mother Nature’s Rabbit Hole is catching up with us.
