(38,106 posts)In 1994 and I got that position because of a paper I wrote regarding the American Non Response to Genocide.
I took the calls from Rwandans begging us for help (Have PTSD to this day) and remember Deputy Assistant Secretary Bushnell crumbling to the floor because our country refused to help these people.
Nice try - but some of us have BTDT - and I don't see a genocide in Gaza. They are not being killed for what they are.
They are being killed because their political leadership - Hamas - refuses to accept a two state solution and refuses to give back human beings kidnapped during a terrorist attack.
I will never move away from that. And when I contrast with Sudan - in the here and now - they are experiencing an actual Genocide because of WHAT they are. There are non muslims in Gaza.
