it is a sad story the genocide that is taking place in Lebanon right now. the Palestinians that have been slaughtered over the past two years. and the carnage across the gaza strip from the Israeli forces. In fact israel is not even recognized by the middle east. American influence and greed caused it all to happen the first place. that is a harsh stance, especially for Jewish Americans, but the fact is Israel does not really belong there. It takes land, that was not its to begin with, artificial boundaries, and then suppresses people who have been living there before them- Palestinians.
