This is exactly the (better articulated version of) sentiments I've been suppressing for a long time (because I'm a nice guy and nobody wants to hear it).

The thing that nations do is war. Mongering Are Us. All else is puny mucking about, dependent on the basic politics of budgeting. War is outside that.

Palestine is already sliding inexorably toward statistic, tragedy having long (WEEKS already) been buried under the weight of numbers.

This is a really great article! Are you coming to Canada when you tour for your book?

I don't know yet but when it's published I'll also be open to taking invitations if people want to set some things up.

You should contact Type Books in Toronto. I don't work there, but they're an awesome bookstore. Indigo/Chapters/Coles is the bookstore monopoly. I also don't work there.

What Hamas did to Israel, and Israel's horrific response can't even be considered a war. Palestine is an occupied territory of Israel. What Israel is doing is genocide.
