Trump, Hegseth, and Rubio need to be imprisoned for the War Crimes they have committed in our names. If Israel will not chain Netanyahu, the United States must let them take the consequences by refusing to help them...not a politically wise solution, but we must curb our "friends" evil with quiet sanctions. We must attempt to honor Law and Peace.

"asking for a whirlwind" is a powerful phrase.

It appears Netanyahu is asking some person, somewhere, to erase Israel from the world map and one among the many who believe in an afterlife may just grant him this request.

Why is humanity plagued with male religious belief?

Please contact Congress to enforce the Leahy Laws and Biden's Memorandums 18 and 20. Enforcement will pause delivery of military aid to Israeli units found to be in violation of US and international humanitarian law. It will not affect delivery of defensive aid. Better late than never.

How are Israel’s actions considered anything but genocide as Lebanon adds to Gaza, the West Bank, other areas? I deplore the actions. Far far beyond “eye for an eye”

for 10.7.

And not a word about the fire Hezbollah rains down on Israel, killing many and displacing thousands?

Powerful, S.B.

Caused me to search my digital library and I was struck by this Sumerian "Lament for the Destruction of Ur" (c. 2000 BCE):

"The country's blood pools like bronze or lead. Its dead melt of themselves like fat in the sun... The mothers and fathers who go not out of their houses are covered in fire. The children in their mother's lap, like fishes are borne away by the waters."

Blessings... /g
