But if you thought that, it seems you would be wrong.

The Palestinians have no powerful friends in the West. The UK under Starmer is a bad joke for them, Germany is well, Germany, France and Canada are dithering and Australia is now siccing police on 69- year old women who brutalize and break their back - for the crime of protesting a genocide.

Maybe our society and "civilization" are not exactly as advertised?
