I see you caught a troll with your article. It amazes me that there are people who still believe the MSM's one-sided, cartoon-level, narrative. Thanks for your clarity.
The best thing Pope Francis could ever do is to go to Gaza, or now, to the West Bank. Make his stand in Bethlehem. Or now, perhaps to Beirut. The opportunities to take a stand for righteousness is ever expanding. He has an opportunity that is unequalled, to say "no" to genocide. Not in our name, not on our watch.
Is that where that line comes from? I've never known that, but I hear it in the political context all the time. I believe it's on the intro song to the Majority Report.
Joe, please read this book “Towers of Ivory and Steel”. It’s a bit unrelated to the current topic of this article at hand but it’s just one more episode of the “every accusation is a confession” saga and proves the massive mile wide blind spot the MSM really has for Israel.
Having said that, the Israelis did try to gain sympathy by parroting shameless lies like “40 beheaded babies” which then the US mainstream media ran endless news cycles on without any fact checking whatsoever to manufacture a consent, but the overwhelming majority of the people did not in turn give a green light for the genocide. It’s just that the government and the MSM thought they convinced the people and had their consent.
What Israelis did in Lebanon with the pagers is pure terrorism. There’s no reason to believe otherwise, unless of course one is a crazy lunatic jingoist.
I think you're right the majority of Americans didn't "green light" genocide, especially because polling shows voters want a ceasefire. Rather, I think the MSM consent manufacturing created *just enough* plausible deniability for the US and Israel to conduct the genocide under the guise of self-defense.
An important distinction, and I thank you for calling it out!
You apply a double standard in every one of your articles and posts, minimizing, excusing, and even celebrating every atrocity committed by Hamas and the other religio-fascists like Hezbollah.
October7- awesome.
Killed hostages - fine
Hezbollah rockets - more please
Dead Israeli kids playing soccer - ignore
You are nothing but a ghoul. You are a death porn tourist willing to fight to the last Israeli and Palestinian from safely over the horizon, one hand on the keyboard and other hand masturbating furiously to your fantasies of dead Israelis and Palestinians.
you pretend to care about Palestinians and Lebanese. But you don't. You happily condemn Palestinians and Lebanon to Islamism and Islamist rules and dictatorship while you yourself would not live for a single second in Hamastan or Hezbollaland under Islamism.
You are not the compassionate hero you pretend to be on the Internet. Your tears are all crocodile. Your concern entirely performative. You are just an utter cunt increasing the misery of others because it gives you a thrill.
Free Palestine from Hamas and asshole poseurs like you.
Problem is you only really appreciate yourself. The Palestinians, the Usraelis, the Lebanese, they can all fuck off and die for all you really care. All about you.

Thanks for sharing, Joy! That's a great petition. I signed, and I see we're getting close to the goal.
As for the troll, I wouldn't concern yourself too much with him. He's been around my comments for a while and talks a lot but has nothing to say.
As Johnny Rotten asked from the stage at the end of the Sex Pistols last show, "Ever get the feeling you've been cheated?"
That's how I feel about the Fourth Estate. Do your job!

History was made. The link points right to the spot.

I just looked it up. It looks phenomenal, and I've always enjoyed what Verso publishes!
Yes! Verso and Haymarket Books!
Not very self aware are you?

I always appreciate your astute insight. :)

You're 30 now -- grow up asshole.
