    That’s wild because twice now I’ve said to you that I feel bad for her and it sucks but it’s a distraction from the horrors quite literally from the other side of the border. I am not going to morun a paper cut in front of someone missing their leg. I am not going to stop and express great loss to someone who survived their attack in front of someone who lost loved ones to the same kind of attack.

    The people who are overly concerned about this woman are the ones trying to use her story as a smokescreen against the atrocities their side have committed. The “Hamas did a bad thing!! Don’t pay attention to the IDF doing the same thing exponentially more times! Listen to how bad her story is!”

    The dead can’t speak. They can’t relive their trauma because they’re gone. Extinguished. Stop missing the forest for the trees and start looking at the broader context. But you know, you’re right, you’ve helped me realize maybe I don’t give a shit about her story because she’s choosing to use that story as propaganda. Thanks, Aragorn. Fuck that woman and her problems. I choose to believe that only the inhumane would placate to these small stories while the victims of true abuse have no voice. Buried under the rubble of their homes, losing their lives wishing for nothing more than to just live a little longer.

    If there is even a glimmer of humanity left it is not with the IDF. It is not with Israel. And it most certainly is not with the people who try to defend them. There is no middle ground to this conflict, my friend. You are either a monster or are fighting them.
