Washington’s military aid to Israel is not just immoral, it’s a security liability for the United States. Do our pols have a death wish?
@CathyGellis As long as Israel continues the ethnic cleansing of W Bank, E Jerusalem, and blockade of Gaza, it fuels its security problems.

@ChMadar I don't like settlements - many Jews don't - but Israel has a point: if it abandons WB, will its new neighbor attack like Gaza did? -
@CathyGellis There is no zero-risk course of action for Israel. But status quo of violent colonization and blockade sure to elicit reprisals -
@ChMadar But note: not from people who truly want peace. Note that settlements are in WB, NOT Gaza, but only Gaza (Hamas) attacking. -
@CathyGellis Israel's blockade of Gaza is an act of violence that is guaranteed to generate sporadic reprisals. -
@ChMadar It may be ineffective, but, again, it's designed to stop Gaza from getting rockets to fire on Israel. Plus humanitarian aid gets in -
@CathyGellis Cathy, this conversation could go on much longer but I'm not sure it would be worth our while. Don't mean to be rude! best, Ch -
@ChMadar You typed that too fast for me! But fine.

@ChMadar The blockade of Gaza is only to attempt to prevent arms being delivered. There was no blockage prior to Gaza attacking it. -
@CathyGellis We do not agree on this point–and I doubt we will resolve our difference of opinion over Twitter.
