Having lived in Israel in the 90s, and having studied both Hebrew and Arabic, I can tell you that much of Israeli society just want all 'Arabs' (they are never referred to as Palestinians) gone from Israeli land; the means doesn't much matter, as they are subhuman, unworthy of much consideration.

If there were an epidemic of crossbow killings it would make sense, but what we have is an epidemic of men killing women and one has unusually done so with a crossbow. It’s focusing on the wrong problem.

There is particular power in such an ideologically diverse coalition rejecting the French right because fascists should be reminded often that they’re repugnant to a broad swath of society, not just getting outmaneuvered by the wily left

Do you remember that time the Tories killed hundreds of thousands via sadistic austerity, and more with medical negligence - as they were too busy exploiting the pandemic- and then had an election and we ruined them?

I remember it like it was yesterday!

The fundamental post-WW2 error is the belief that fascism was defeated in 1945. What we should have learned is that about 20-30% of the population generally think fascism sounds pretty good, and whenever we take our eye off the ball... guess who's back?

Here's a picture taken from my front door; the Church of St Lawrence, Sedgebrook, Lincolnshire. Like so many village churches, it's crumbling, underused, and beyond villagers' means to properly maintain. But we love it and do our best to keep it going, as a cultural focal point, if that makes sense?

I don't know if you've visited the UK; if you have you may have noticed that, happily, religion really doesn't pervade our everyday lives, unless we choose it. I know very few people who go to church, and religion in schools is confined to Christmas and Easter. Faith's a private matter, mostly.
