    I got him one of those wands that sticks to the floor so the toy is suspended, and he attacks that thing a ton. First time I pulled it out he played with it for 4 hours straight until he was absolutely exhausted. First time I saw him pant from exertion.
















  • To be clear, I support a free Palestine and condemn Israel’s actions.

    But, something that you, and most people I see discussing this, are missing is that this isn’t just a political or land issue. This is a fundamentalist religious issue too. Both parties believe they have a sacred right to the land and that the other does not. The two parties ideologies are fundamentally incompatible with anything other than the removal of the other party. There is not, and never has been, a road to a two state solution and the actions we’re seeing now have likely always been the plan for Israel. Israel has squeezed and squeezed the Palestinians until, surprise!, they (or at the very least a subset of them) decide it’s time to fight back. That’s the excuse Israel has been looking for, an event large and egregious enough for an all out assault and to ultimately push the Palestinians into the ocean and remove them from the equation.
