Economic, foreign and defence/security policy are worsening the climate horrors ("2023 the hottest year on record" - Copernicus Deputy Director, Dr Samantha Burgess, https://climate.copernicus.eu/) and worsening the divisions between Muslims and the other, more united, two children of Abraham, Jews and Christians.
Economic policy is all about the expansion of exploiting finite fossil fuels to rush humanity towards the Gadarene dash to the cliff edge or the metaphorical 'lemming's.
Economic policy is about expanding our comfort and well-being regardless of a fast warming world from ever more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere that heats more than air. Known since Foote and Tyndall did their research in the 1850s - the founders of climate science.
Foreign, defence and security policy (all violence is terror) has reinforced the traditional Christian/Jewish West to have the upper hand in the world that has always been at the expense of the poor South who live more sustainably and tread more lightly on the planet.
Our important, ferocious ally through its direct violence and, later pre-emptive wars since the 1940s has brought them land with only Gaza given back in 2005. Since then it has been tightly controlled by Israel and Egypt by land and sea to make it the world's biggest and most densely populated prison/refugee camp for over two million people. Two million but fast declining as every day of the war lasts.
A decent and civilised reaction to the 7 October atrocity would have been a counter-terrorism action to release the hostages, close and destroy the Hamas tunnels instead of wringing their hands in deep sorrow for over 10,000 entirely innocent civilians killed by Israel who had nothing to do with the Hamas attack and simply wanted more of the pre 7 October uncivilised, unacceptable conditions they were living in then.
