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.

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.
This might be your best yet and you have a lot of competition.
I wish I could write like you!
this one particularly was jaw droppingly good...
Thanks for this post. I pre-ordered your book long ago. See you in DC when you are on tour.
Bravo!!! By God, you tell it like it is, and I wish that everyone did. This should be shared with the world. Henry Strozier
Best thing I have read in a while.
Awesome text, thank you

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.
