Going to hell with no possibility of redemption

I don’t have time to write something very long, but I’d like to present you with something weird and kinda of important: An open letter from the editor-in-chief of the Jerusalem Post trying to convince the Jewish mainstream to permanently banish Jews who are not sufficiently Zionist and/or don’t 100 percent approve of Israel’s current mass slaughter in Gaza.

The international effort to criminalize criticism of Israel is hitting new strides.

Enough is Enough: It is Time for Apartheid to End, by Kenn Orphan

by Kenn Orphan Writer, Dandelion Salad Halifax, Nova Scotia May 12, 2021

I have anxiety in my heart tonight. I have friends in Gaza, the West Bank and Israel, Palestinians and Israeli Jews, and I am truly fearing for them.

And this feels like the build up of something big. Like it felt before the 2014 assault on Gaza. I pray this isn’t so, but it is difficult to ignore the signs.
