She’s been very clear that she cares for all children. I think anyone that’s being honest with themselves knows that Palestinian children are going through incredible suffering so bringing special attention to that is a noble act.
There were also many Israeli children who were murdered, maimed, or kidnapped by Hamas and she went 2 years without mentioning it. This is also in a climate in which people are invalidating the suffering of those children. I don’t think it’s wrong for someone to make a principled political stand, but it is intellectually dishonest to say “I just care for ALL children” and then ignore a large group of them.
Again, I am not saying that I think she is in the wrong, which I have already made explicit. The people whose suffering children she ignored are also not wrong to be confused about her position.
She has commented primarily about Palestinian children because there are more of them suffering. Enough said.
Only Palestinian children have suffered from genocide and ethnic cleansing at the hands of the group of fascists that currently run Israel.
Over 15000 children have been killed by their far right regime. My hope is that the people of Israel, who are fed and have access to water, will reject further violence through their democratic processes.
I also hope that the people of Gaza reject Hamas as they try to survive starvation, water deprivation and the genocide they have been subjected to by a fascist regime.
I respect Ms Rachel for standing up for the downtrodden and victimized. In my view, there is nothing more human. Collectively, we should all be doing more to help those that are suffering, including all victims of groups that spread terror (such as the Government of Israel and Hamas).
