Why don't our leaders cut to the chase and make a map of the areas Palestinians are allowed to go?

It's utterly dehumanizing to have to argue about a protest the same morning you read that more children in Gaza are dead of starvation in Gaza because the people you were protesting defunded UNRWA based on lies
Last night’s shameful forced cancellation of a bilateral meeting due to a violent protest is the direct result of caving in to the irrational demands of an out-of-control and noisy cohort, fueling their determination. It will take courageous leadership - which may not be easy but…

These people are incapable of feeling shame.
We came to bear witness. With Gaza visible in the distance, the kibbutz Kfar Aza was one of the first brutally attacked by Hamas on October 7th. Ayelet’s son Netta, a Canadian, was killed here protecting his fiancé— may his memory be for a blessing.
