I'm not sure if the Arab spring could have happened without Twitter.

The drunk driver runs a stop sign and the high driver waits till it turns green.

Right, because alcohol is the white man's drug. Plain and simple.

They made alcohol illegal for a while but it turned out to be too onerous for the white people so it was legalized again. Marijuana laws have caused massive damage to minority communities, so they remain in place.

29/1139 gives you 2.5%. Children are a protected group under "non-combatants" in int'l law, and Israel has killed an estimated 13,000, or 40% of total deaths if it's 32,000, in just 6 months. Although I do agree with the other commenter that the correct number of children to kill, under any circumstance, is 0, I also think big problems need to be addressed first. Killing 13,000 children in 6 months is a big problem. The kicker here is the complete impunity, both legally and in the mainstream consciousness/ news reporting, with which Israel massacres children. That to me makes a whole lot more people than just Israel complicit in this big problem.

No my friend, but assuming that feelings, emotions, and hormones are something negative that need to be ignored or done away with is an artefact of patriarchy and we can throw that whole shit away.

No mate, war is when both countries have a military. This is a technologically advanced, nuclear armed nation genociding some of the poorest people in the world who are held captive in an open air prison. It's a disgrace to the perpetrators and their supporters.

That's horrible, it shouldn't happen to anyone. We need more awareness and more trauma therapy, especially for children. Fortunately Israeli victims at least have a platform to be heard and sufficient resources available for treatment, but Palestinians do not. I'm not sure if there's even a single fully functioning hospital left in Gaza, even after Israel turns back on the electricity, water, and gas. If they ever do.

James Gordon, a US psychiatrist ... said recovery was possible even in severely traumatised children, but only if the outside world did not give up on them.
