Criticism of Israel's Bombing of Gaza and Civilian Deaths

So, I have very little sympathy for what has become of that state.

It's a, it's a satanic state, you know.

You look at the polls, 60% of Israelis, 60% say Israel's not using enough force in Gaza.

It's not using enough force in Gaza.

If you look at every metric out there, every metric, intensity of bombing, payload of bombs,

imprecision of bombs, destruction of civilian infrastructure, ratio of civilians to combatants

of women and children to total numbers killed, if you look at every metric, there have been

so many studies now done, what Israel is doing in Gaza is in a class completely its own.

You know, it doesn't even compare, it doesn't even compare, it doesn't even compare remotely

to the carpet bombing of German cities during World War II, the Allied carpet bombing of

German cities, the Allied bombing of Dresden, doesn't compare.

And in the face of that, to say 60% are saying you haven't killed enough, you haven't destroyed

enough, you lose me.

My moral imagination stops there.

I'm not going further.

I don't see the other side, I don't see the concentration camp guard side.

I told Dr. West, you're not going to get me to call them brother and sister.

It's not going to happen.

I have limits on my moral imagination.

And just as calling a concentration camp guard brother or sister, as I told Dr. West, is

a sacrilege on the dead, in my opinion, I am not going to say I can understand where

the Israelis are coming from.

I won't go there.

No.

Killing 8,000 children in two months, the total, you know, that is more children killed

than every single combat zone for the years 2020, 2021, and 2022 combined, combined.

More children killed.

So who are they killing?

They're killing people in the concentration camp.

They're killing people in a concentration camp.

They can't go anywhere.

They can't sleep.
