Antisemitic white nationalist Nick Fuentes admits that he doesn't actually care what happens to the Palestinians but is siding with them simply because he hopes the current crisis will alienate Israel and diminish its influence: "We have to be strategic about it."
Here is what I think is going to happen with the #Israel - #Gaza conflict:
- Mass migration to evacuate Gaza city. Already starting.
- A safe-passage corridor will be established near the southern boarder to the West Bank
- International aid will be directed to the West Bank to build temp housing
- Gaza City will be systematically razed by the IDF so that there is no reason to return
- Most of Gaza will be a no-man's land for the foreseeable future
- Tens of Thousands will die

How many of you read aloud to your lover. Or write letters by hand, on paper. Do things before they are asked of you. Sit in silence listening intensely to your lovers words. Habit and boredom are the death of love, spontaneity and humor feed it. Disagree lightly, and hold no grudges. But also speak passionately about your beliefs and ideas. It is a dance, not a race. Water flowing is the model.
These, and more need to be taught to those striving for connection.
