They’re Mad As Hell May 7, 2024May 6, 2024 Everyone agrees our Southern border is in crisis. Only Trump stands in the way of fixing it. Rosa DeLauro is mad as hell (60 seconds). Everyone knows Trump is guilty of trying to overturn a free and fair election . . . and of stealing government documents he lied to the FBI about not having. Thanks to Merrick Garland, those cases may never come to trial. Bill Maher is mad as hell (7 cathartic minutes). And then there’s Gaza. So much reason to be mad — and cry. If only Hamas had accepted Gaza’s 2005 victory — Israel’s unconditional retreat — and built a prosperous society instead of an underground war machine (60 seconds). Hamas hiding among and below innocent women and children, intentionally causing tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians to die, is beyond horrible — but not genocide.* Because yesterday was Holocaust Remembrance Day, it’s worth remembering that the Brits basically carved out a Jewish state after two-thirds of Europe’s Jews were purposely exterminated. That’s genocide. *About 2 million Palestinians live in Gaza, 2 million in Israel (as citizens, 10 of them in the Knesset), and 2 million-plus in the West bank. Because Hamas has used Gazans as human shields, one-third of one percent of the Palestinian civilians in the region have died. Again: beyond horrible. But not genocide.
