You can know about Israel’s abject inhumanity, you can see it at first hand, read about it, write about it every day, but every so often it slaps you right in the face. The sheer fucking inhumanity and barbarism of people deciding that cornflakes and children’s books are not to be allowed into Gaza…it’s mindblowing. The entire situation is so beyond wrong that sometimes it’s hard to comprehend.
That’s it, I have no more words for this tonight.
