all residents living anywhere in america should feel welcome, safe to be there, & respected for who they are

this includes where they immigrated from, where their relatives still live & die, where their ancestors lived

how are palestinians supposed to feel

when israeli flags lined the entirety of mainstreet in nyack

palestinian american residents

american palestinian residents

how is little ramallah supposed to feel?

some residents there can say all twenty of their family members were murdered in less than half a year

are they supposed to feel welcome at a theater in nyack? a restaurant?

how are anti-zionist jewish americans supposed to feel?

how are they even still breathing from all the heartache & devastation?

knowing that still breathing still means being one of the lucky ones? compared to every palestinian who is not

how hard is it to follow south africa's deterimination?

to stop arms sales?

can everyone not see the cost of this on everyone? the cost on all our kids?

is it really going to take Iran & Hezbollah?

is that how utterly mad the world is?

the only option, the best we can do?

is ~more~ killing? ~more~ murder?

murder as rescue? murder as self defense?

are you kidding me that that is the best the whole world can do?

you think i want to carry the cost of innocent israeli little ones?

id be a mayor of somewhere by now

not my choices
