    “Slammed” huh? Take a shot, everybody.

    They’re getting suspended and fired. Just say that. Stop with the slamming bullshit. It doesn’t mean anything.

      As a descendant of Jewish victims and survivors of the Holocaust, aside from all the dead children and innocents in Gaza, this is the thing that bothers me most. I am not Israeli, but I am deeply ashamed of any Jew who thinks this genocide is okay or can be justified for any reason.

    Kudos to the brave dissenting Israelis speaking and acting according to their conscience. I hope they are protected in some way from reprisals because Israel does not take criticism lightly, especially from within it’s own borders.
