I hesitate to click a "heart" to like this spot-on essay, Jon, given the continuing deaths of innocents by the thousands and how disturbed all the power players are, especially Netanyahu and Hamas. Last week, Chris Hedges posted an extremely insightful -- and frightening -- conversation with Dennis Kucinich about the situation and how grave it could play out: https://youtu.be/jTP-W9VoFKA?si=sQTdOKePB4RwSRkt.
