"Those who crusade, not for God in themselves, but against
the devil in others, never succeed in making the world better,
but leave it either as it was, or sometimes perceptibly worse
than what it was, before the crusade began. By thinking
primarily of evil we tend, however excellent our intentions,
to create occasions for evil to manifest itself."
-- Aldous Huxley
"The only war that matters is the war against the imagination.
All others are subsumed by it."
-- Diane DiPrima, "Rant", from Pieces of a Song.
"It is difficult
to get the news from poems
yet men die miserably every day
for lack
of what is found there"
-- William Carlos Williams, "Asphodel, That Greeny Flower"
Given the extensive Zionist control of the corporate media that now exists in UK,and according to Robert Fisk’s account is pretty insidious in Canada too,commentators who decry IDF war crimes in the name of humanity do not have great career prospects.
Alex Thomson will probably do gardening programmes after this!
This is so sick, Israel’s objectives have made each member of their government complicit in these war crimes, clearly that’s what they are. Crimes against humanity.
Thankyou Alex Thomson , how you kept cool i will never kno w. I do not accept that soldiers could not have movd road blocks for ambulances, I am disgusted by the Israeli government , we all know it is a dangerous situation but to leave children with no food or water amongst dead bodies is dispicable.peace to Gaza
