Displaced Lebanese cannot return to southern Lebanon because of Israel's documented use of white phosphorus in the villages of Nabatieh, Tyre, Khiam, and Yohmor. With fresh evacuation orders and over 1 million people displaced, residents of southern Lebanon have nowhere to go.

    Don’t a lot of abused children become abusers themselves? I’m not justifying it, but it seems to that it’s the result of inter generational trauma. Not just centuries of oppression and pogroms, not just the Nazi holocaust, but a lot of Israelis came directly from places in the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe that were brutally oppressive.

      Babylon 5 still being relevant, unfortunately:

      Sinclair: “In order to be free, you had to learn to fight; no one questions that. But you’ve over-compensated. You’re like abused children who have grown big enough to do the same thing to someone else… as if that will somehow balance the scales, it won’t. If you let your anger cloud your judgement, it will destroy you.”
