It’s July 30th, 2025: In less than 3 months, it would be 2 Years of pain for many in Gaza.
They are God’s children too. I don’t know what the stakes look like for those people.
But one thing is for sure, if animals were being starved like that in mainland America, I’ll leave it to your imagination what you think would have happened.
Let’s be human beings with empathy, and cognizant that one day, we will be gone. We are goners.
No sentimentality-for war is war, yes, but this has been too asymmetric. Women and children have historically been exempt from the casualties of war. Journalists used to be untouchable. That cannot be said about Gaza since October 7th, 2023.
A record number of journalists, over 100 killed, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists, both domestic and foreign, have died in the line of duty. That number is staggering. The world cannot keep ignoring this.
Feed the babies. Protect the women. Then fight the enemy, whoever that is. That has always been the simplest principle of just war. I just wish there could be no wars at all. But I’m not naive about the reality.
What saddens me even more is how much support Mr. Bibi still receives in America. This is a man with an international arrest warrant in over 100 countries, charged as a war criminal. Yet whenever he comes to our beloved America and addresses a joint session of Congress, he receives more standing ovations than the President himself. What is that all about?
We cannot claim to be a Christian nation and in the same breath watch babies starve to death elsewhere. That is not being Christ-like, the Christ I read about in the Bible. I know I cannot judge, and I am not judging, but this is against any moral code.
Maybe we as a nation are morally bankrupt, or on the verge of it.
The above brief rant is for the starving babies in Gaza and elsewhere because of wars.
Nothing personal, just a cry for the poor.
God help us.
