Baerwald (view)

i’m the last guy to defend Israel’s colonial horrors in Gaza. Ive been complaining about it since i first learned of the Baerwald School there, and my family’s history with Israel.

What I take umbrage at is your simplistic  tarring Biden, with not only Netanyahu’s brush, but with Trump’s.

I appreciate your desire for Hollywood-style Good Guy/ Bad Guy dynamics, but sadly that doesn’t work after a few thousand years of layered catastrophes, and this simple binary world you long for doesn’t exist and never has.

You say it yourself, America isn’t the Big Cheese anymore in the middle East, while in the same breath you attack Biden for not  controlling Mad Dog Netanyahu.

It’s nice that you’re so confident in Ireland’s future under America and Russia-led global fascism, but I really think you’re kidding yourself. 

If there is one thing I’ve learned about n immersing myself in the 20th CE history of Germany and Japan it’s that half-assed democracy is still better than a full on fascist regime.
