You can support peace and justice for the Palestinians and still condemn the October 7 massacre as an obscene atrocity. Odd how so many people find this impossible. I wonder why ....

They knew dad from their boxing days in the east-end. They were very affectionate and gave me some money as a gift. Dad never told me who they were.

God bless.
I disagreed with Charlie Kirk on so very much but a truly free, liberal, and good society is based on such disagreement. His murder is not only a vile act in itself but an attack on the very culture and politics that all genuine progressives should advocate.
