Complete agreement Birgitte. I have had both Jewish and Arab friends and acquaintances in life. Neither determines a good nor bad person. The silence to this post so far is disappointing, but I'm not surprised. I'll likely lose subscribers for this one. So be it. Thank you for standing up and weighing in, it's appreciated.

The silence and lack of "likes" on this post is troubling. It is horrific what is going on in Palestine. Horrific. Yes, also horrific what happened on October 7. All of that is appalling. Doesn't matter what the labels are. Doesn't matter which faith you follow, what flag you carry. Murder is murder. Genocide is genocide. Atrocities are atrocities. Words have meaning, and no amount of political agenda or washing can change that.

Thank you Geoff for standing up. I'm thankful for you and the millions of people protesting war and oppression all over the world. Not just this one. Not just Ukraine. All of them.
