i happened to find myself in a meeting with an international literary organization that has condemned Israel repeatedly for genocide.   Although I have been thinking and talking and writing about genocide for the past two years, in listening to the need for further isolation and condemnation of Israel I realized they just don’t get it.  Three countries have been bombing us for well over two years and no one has complained  because we had shelters and we shot down a lot of the rockets that would attack peopled areas.  

And most of the civilians who were killed in Gaza we surrounding Hamas.
