October 7 was killing. Israel's response to October 7th was massive killing. I am a fan of neither.

As a cause, I favor Palestinian statehood and no settlements on the West Bank. As a means, I oppose all violence. We should all isolate Israel's murderous government until they withdraw from Palestinian territories and end the killing and abuse.

Afterwards, when it behaves like a civilized country, we should welcome Israel back into the community of nations.

Although actually, in a wider sense, I reject the entire idea of nations and borders. They are, in effect, flags with armies around them. Nations and borders between people are the incentive for war, for hatred, for killing.

In a sane world. Jews and Arabs and every other "group" would be just people and simply enjoy each other's company so we can live like human beings, and not behave like monsters.

Do you see how a dog greets you? That's how humans should treat each other. With love.

It's really not that complex or hard. We just make it seem that way.
