Sorry, this whole article made me sick. First of all, James Carroll is not a priest. He was a long time ago, but no longer--so don't pull the religion thing. As you know, there are Catholics and there are "Catholics." Not saying which category he's in, but the bona fides aren't there.

Anti-zionism is NOT anti-semitism.

You have no criticism of the horrible tactics that are being used against the Palestinians, most of them innocent women and children. Self-defense??????????

I doubt that Oct. 7 attack was a "surprise." Israeli tech is second to none, and they, unlike us, defend their borders. Furthermore, there was a 7 hr. standown by Israel. And many of the casualties of that day were self-inflicted. They are burying the cars that were destroyed by shots fired from helicopters--burying the evidence without forensic review? Israel is in a war, but they're taking the time and effort to bury a field of cars using heavy equipment. Sure. There are kibbutz whistleblowers saying they were fired upon by the IDF. I don't trust the mainstream news.

People sort of notice the cruelty and are outraged.

They are also using white phosphorous bombs on civilians.

People notice these things. We are outraged that this is happening, yet it's all about "anti-semitism."
