An Atomic Bomb on Gaza?

 


I am NOT Anti-Semitic. I am NOT  Islamophobic. 

I have a few, albeit a very few, Muslim friends, acquaintances and neighbours.

I have more who are Jewish.

I appeal to my Jewish friends: please do what you can to get the message to Netanyahu and his government that he has gone way beyond Exodus 21:23–25 - "An eye for an eye" עַיִן תַּחַת עַיִן.

The rabbis will tell you that this passage does not demand revenge, but rather places a constraint on reciprocal justice. I fear that, with this merciless, vicious response, Netanyahu has blasted a bottomless pit of revenge and counter-revenge for generations to come.
