For me, this is failed leadership from our community of top people in positions of leadership

Dear leader - will proof be forthcoming that I am wrong in this assertion of guilty silence?

Four months of horror gone by and no sign of ecocidal behaviour diminishing.  Rafa, the capital with over 1 million displaced refugees, is next for the bloodbath treatment.

We are all supposed to have a conscience, but you would never think so from our apathy and total blockage over this new kind of holocaust/genocide of collective punishment we are each partly responsible for (from the parties we vote for and from our own silence, too) that is unfolding before our very eyes.  7,000 dead every month who killed no one, but WE killed with our UK weapons supporting our friend and ally with not a murmur of disquiet.

We knew then, in the 1930s and 40s and did nothing. 

We know now, in the 2020s and do nothing.

Remarkable indifference!  And not one person will respond, as usual (one person of integrity does).  But not a single MP or councillor!

JEREMY BOWEN: "Another potential audience might be the International Court of Justice in The Hague, which has ruled that Israel faces "plausible" allegations that it is committing the crime of genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

"Israel has set a high bar for victory that might be unattainable, even over many months. It wants to wipe out Hamas, restore Israel's security and free the hostages Hamas took on 7 October.

"Many of the families of Israelis held in Gaza and their supporters do not buy the prime minister's argument that only force will free the hostages. They want a ceasefire deal, as they fear that the longer the war continues, the less likely it is that they will ever see them again.

"Israel has inflicted considerable damage on Hamas, but it has not broken its capacity to fight. A senior Western intelligence official told me that Israel had killed about one-third of Hamas forces and destroyed about one-third of the tunnel network that makes Hamas such an obdurate enemy.
