Former President Barack Obama cautioned against ignoring the complexities of the Israel-Hamas war, warning that “all of us are complicit.”

“If you want to solve the problem, then you have to take in the whole truth. And you then have to admit nobody’s hands are clean, that all of us are complicit to some degree,” he said in an excerpted interview with Pod Save America released Saturday.

          Sure it does. The jews are the occupying force that is committing genocide against their people. You don’t expect them to have an opinion about that?

            Nope, sorry. Two wrongs don’t make a right. Just because someone was abused as a child doesn’t give him a free pass to abuse their own children. Also:

            That’s a pretty racist/antisemitic way to put it, specially when there have been protests by Jews against both Netanyahu and his “war”. Neozionist, ultra-orthodox, colonists; take your pick, any or all are better ways to refer to those responsible.
