No words. Who knows what to believe. brush Feb 2025 #39

Maybe believe the forensic scientists? Arazi Feb 2025 #42

Hamas wants it off. Netanyahu wants it off. I believe you, it's off. brush Feb 2025 #43

Probably Arazi Feb 2025 #45

Don't need insight into their minds, MarineCombatEngineer Feb 2025 #22

Easy to do when you don't think of them as victims and never did. AloeVera Feb 2025 #56

It is rather unusual to think of perpetrators as victims. Most people can't get themselves to engage in such folly. Beastly Boy Feb 2025 #57
