The means justify the ends, this is often the reposte of evil leaders like Hitler and Stalin. We could agree today - the current representatives are Hamas and BB, the prime minister of Israel. Some will say, but Israel is a democracy. This isn't the case, it's not a functioning democracy, but a cabal led by an extraordinary leader. Who until the war - was often in the public courts in his own country. More recently there have been nation wide demonstrations against his draconian changes to the countries legal system. I would therefore argue - that two morally venal and overtly corrupt political systems, are fighting each other to the death - Hamas and BB. There is objectively nothing to choose between these two Dante like evils. This Faustian pack, will only bring catastrophie for the two systems. As Stalin once said in the 1930's of the great famine - "One death is a tragedy, a million is a statistic". One day - as with Hitler and Stalin - we will wonder how such an impasse could befall the citizens of Gaza, Israel and the rest of the world? The central issue underpinning this ongoing historic war, is there is no - tabula rasa. There will be no - deus ex machina.
