It’s awful. Netanyahu is 74. My feeling is that he isn’t bothered by the concept of war crimes. He wants to wipe hamas and as many Palestinians as he can off the face of the earth, and be seen as a hero and martyr. He’s not doing this alone either. The current politics make it seem unlikely that war crimes will ever be perused though. The world is a depressing place sometimes. I don’t know what to say except avoid the news, or if you do look, then know it’s gonna be shitty. I’m enormously grateful I live in a country like Australia.
