Subject: RE: BS: New Israeli atrocity: attack on Gaza aid
I've partecipated to demonstrations on these problems since the Seventies. We used to put the blame on the US and the Western Countries, mine included. First because of Vietnam, then Chile, and so on. We had many good points. But not only good points, and we've often been not so attentive to other problems. We've been deaf towards Eastern Europe under Moscow, for instance. Nowadays, there still are many and important causes to put the blame on the US, the Western Countries, Israel. But that is not the whole story, today more than decades ago. It arouses my indignation when I hear, or read, of people that profess to be human rights champions and show no sympathy nor interest for the suffering in the world if not caused by the US and Israel.
