Today in news about Israel: The UNHRC decides Israel needs constant monitoring, but Cuba and Belarus can go free….Hamas thinks all of Israel is “occupied” and thus all of its strikes (including, presumably those on civilians) are against “forces” within the theater of occupation–this is supposed to persuade America to engage with it….BBC apologizes for accurately calling Jerusalem the capital of Israel, apparently agreeing with Hamas that Israel does not legitimately control even its pre-1967 territory.
I’m going to watch some West Wing episodes and pretend today didn’t happen.
