I would rather you not stop writing but the decision is yours....I saw where you were trying to set up accounts to get some money to Gaza but it seemed to me you were struggling and that you were unsure any money could safely be transferred to them...so...I did not respond but was waiting to see if you would be able to figure out a SURE FIRE way to get it done. I am also atheist....do not like ANY of the so called religions. But I do marvel at a world where Jews have completely convinced the West that they have endured the worst of the worst...the holohoax. Yes, they were disliked immensely and yes Nazi Germany wanted to physically work the shit out of them..... but in my readings I in no way believe it happened as "they" say...and the Chosen Ones can do this to a people and no one, at least in the West. questions it? No one cares? No, the brainwashing has been done par excellance...might have misspelled that last but I think you know what I mean.

This is what happens when good people engage with the Stupid Machine. They get busted up; the emotional load is like grabbing onto a 600V power cable while standing in a pool.

It's not like Walt didn't know what was gonna happen when he grabbed onto the cable and gave it a good yank. The man's a very competent physicist, after all.

The problem is that the rest of us are too wimpy to grab onto the cable, and short it out in so many places that our Friend Walt is spared his emotional demise. Each of us would have gotten a mild shock, just enough to raise the heart-rate, and we'd be otherwise unfazed.

Next time a Walt King comes along, don't fritter him away like this.

===

Walt, I make a public appeal to you: Don't Stop. Take a break, deliver the world the Good Cussing it richly deserves, and ... find another angle of address.

Just think of all the fun you'll be missing.

I don't see this as a harbinger of more genocides.

I see this as the expected carnage inevitable when an empire crashes.

US is clearly on its way out, and there is no way Israel can survive without the US.

Therefore both must act quickly, if brainlessly, both are on the attack, striking out without a clue what they are trying to hit. Thrashing about as they drown.

The one sure way to end Israel is a genocide. A pretty good way to end USA is to weaponise their weakest point, the deficit with tarriffs. Likewise the one sure way for an influential power to destroy that influence is to bully other powers more than capable of standing up to them (Russia, china, but increasingly India, Brazil and even Yemen!!)

It is tragic that Gazans are the victims in all this. But the BRICS lead future looks much better.

(And new institutions to punish the criminals of USA, Israel and Ukraine will accelerate the changes for the better).

Please don't stop writing, Walt. You are a good man and a good writer, and you are making an important contribution that touches people's lives and makes a difference. As for the reason why not one of your readers responded to your appeal, I cannot speak for others, but my reason for not giving was nothing to do with a lack of feeling, but because I doubt the wisdom of sending money to Gaza, when what is needed is food and raw materials. Sending one without the other will result in an inflationary spiral which only helps the lucky recipients of the cash...for a short while. The reality is that unless we are willing to put our bodies and lives on the line, by becoming martyrs, there is little of a practical nature that people can do other than keep the issue alive. In the long run, that will be more effective, as Israel is being irreparably damaged by its status as an international pariah. As for becoming some kind of martyr, that is only an option for those with no responsibilities to others. Even if we are inclined to sacrifice ourselves, the reality is that there are endless good causes in the world today, involving the suffering of the innocent. Who is to say which is the most important and most deserving? Your readers who fail to give may prefer to direct their energies to other causes. So please do not suppose that your writing is futile, or that people do not care about injustice - neither are the case.

I fully agree, Alec, this eternal/millennial evil of all evils, since the Crucifixion of JESUS, must be dealt with, once and for all,

otherwise the world and civilisation will cease to exist.
