"In defending Gaza’s destruction, Israeli leaders have reached readily for an analogy with the allies’ firebombing of German cities like Dresden – apparently unembarrassed by the fact that these were long ago acknowledged as some of the worst crimes of the Second World War.

Israel is waging an old-style, unabashed colonial war against the native population – of the kind that predates international humanitarian law. And western leaders are cheering them on."

‘Are we the baddies?’ Western support for genocide in Gaza means the answer is yes

The desperate smear campaign to defend Israel’s crimes highlights the toxic brew of lies that’s been underpinning the liberal democratic order for decades

@ridicol Every time I encounter people who are #SelfDelusional I have to remind myself that there are billions of people who believe in an #Omniscient #Omnipresent #Omnipotent #SkyDaddy and a #ZombieJew. They #Whisper #SelfishWhispers to their #ImaginaryFriends to bend the laws of #Physics and #Probability to grant their #SelfishDesires and then I understand the scope of the problem.

@ridicol I think #SelfDelusional is more fitting. They make the #Choice. It is not made for them by #MentalIllness

@SearingTruth @ridicol The concept of "evil" is subjective: There's no universally agreed-upon definition of what constitutes true evil. What's your definition?

With a deep dark pit of horror."
