Sher Hever, the Editorial Board of Haaretz, and Ari Shavit reflect the thinking and share the fears of millions in Israel today and have said it all.

With sentiments like this being voiced in the apartheid state, there may well be hope after all, and the darkness that Benjamin Netanyahu represents may well be swept away from power from within.

Let us hope that this is the case because the alternative is a grave one for the State of Israel and may result in her being wiped off the face of the earth.

The truth is that if anyone represents an existential threat to Israel, it is not Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, the Arabs, Iran, or the Palestinians, but rather it is Benjamin Netanyahu and his cabinet of delusional and psychotic right-wing fanatics who are hell-bent on provoking a regional war which their nation cannot possibly survive, let alone win.

Permit me to conclude with the following;

Giorgus Mitralias, a Greek journalist, a founding member of the Greek Committee Against Debt and a member of the CADTM network, wrote the following in an essay titled “When Israel’s Accomplices Accustom Us to a Monstrous, Heartless and Inhuman World.”

He said, “Almost a year ago we wrote that one of the aims of Netanyahu and his acolytes was to accustom us to a world that increasingly resembles a jungle where only the law of the strongest reigns and where the worst atrocities against the weakest are permitted! Today, after twelve months of atrocities and crimes that often surpass the imagination, we can say that the Zionist state is accustoming us to something much more serious: perversity, mass sadism, and indiscriminate, unrestrained violence against civilians, which are tolerated, recognized, and even accepted as “normal” behaviour by those above! This bestializes not only those who commit these unspeakable crimes but also all those who tolerate and encourage them, pretending not to see!”

Giorgus has spoken the bitter truth: the world has indeed lost its compassion and humanity.

THE END
