I think the obvious, if complex answer is: nationalism emerges out of the same ideological ferment that produces scientific racism, fascism, and ethnic cleansing; national self-determination is often both justified and necessary, but it's not an inherently good process.

If this was a passenger jet filled with holidaymakers it would be frontpage news for days. The world is divided into two classes of human beings: us and them. Different rules apply. And that's wrong. theguardian.com/world/2024/apr…

A BBC report on how the Israeli Defence Force killed two Palestinian children in the occupied West Bank - 15 year old Basil and 8 year old Adam.

Without Netanyahu's active support, Ben Gvir and Smotrich would return to being the marginal, albeit dangerous thugs they always were. They are currently as dangerous as they are because that serves Netanyahu's interests.

He's the enabler.
