Today, thanks to "the only democracy in the Middle East" and Israel's Washington enabler, we watch on TV, in Pepe Escobar's words, "the wanton killing of women and children, the carpet bombing of hospitals, schools and mosques."

And nothing is done. Washington sends more bombs, more money. European politicians speak of wanton murder of civilians as "Israel's right of self-defense." We are descending into darkness and losing our souls.

What does it profit Israel to gain Palestine, yet forfeit Israel's soul?

What does it profit Washington?

What does it profit Americans who are sending the money and bombs with which to genocide a people?
