For more than two decades, Mona Khalil protected the endangered sea turtles that laid their eggs on a beach in Lebanon and kept predators away from the hatchlings. On June 4, she was wounded in an Israeli airstrike in southern Lebanon, and on Friday, she died of her injuries, a close friend said.

Those are my senators too and they have both lost my vote. I won't vote for a Republican but I won't vote for either of them again. Israel should not be supported until they change regimes and stop killing non-combatants and torturing prisoners. I'm not satisfied with them on other issues as well.

Israel has, for generations had little respect for the lives of their neighbors. They have gotten away with violations of international law repeatedly over the years. It is time for that to stop.

Israel has enjoyed the protection of the west since they were found. But this war that Netanyahu has fomented is showing his adversaries just how inconsequential that support is becoming. If he doesn’t stop his genocide it won’t matter anymore. Trump will throw them under the bus in a heartbeat.

War criminal Netanyahu and his government and military leaders should be arrested and prosecuted at the ICC in The Hague! The fascist country Israel should be boycotted completely! No export to Israel! No import from Israel! No entry of Israeli citizens! Make them a pariah! Let them pay!

If I have learned anything in my life, it is no Abrahamic religion can credibly claim to be a religion of peace or enlightenment in this age.
