The two wars cannot be compared. Israel was forced into this war after Hamas breached the borders and killed about 1200 people, taking another 200+ hostage (some of which included the bodies of people they killed).

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez described the war in Gaza as a generational political force among younger voters, comparing it to the impact of the Vietnam War.
“I have said this directly to Democratic leadership. I’ve communicated this to the White House, that this is our [generation’s] Vietnam."

AOC compares Israel’s war against Hamas to Vietnam
The left-wing Democrat said that the war had been ‘generationally radicalizing’ and blamed it in part for her loss in the House Oversight Committee leadership race

I've been trying for years to get a photo of a Dark-eyed Junco that showcases the white tail feathers. I did get the white tail feathers (yay) but the lighting was poor so other details didn't come out great (nuts.) Flashing these white tail feathers is used in communications.

Library purchases are purchases. They pay the press. The press counts them towards advances and royalties. And (gasp) the book is in a library!! It’s wonderful and no one should ever feel bad about getting a book through a library instead of buying it.
I got it from my local library system, which has 28 physical copies (more than half are checked out) and 4 audiobooks. The branch library is two blocks from my house so I get most of my books from there. Hope this helps because I loved the book - I'm not a historian and knew nothing of that period.

According to Uncommitted National Movement co-founder Layla Elabed, sister to Rep. Rashida Tlaib, they are having buyers remorse after their campaign to take votes away from Harris.
All of you fools that did your protest vote “for Gaza“, cost the Palestinian people their lives.
Congratulations.

May the memory of Josef Lewkowicz, 98, be a blessing.
Josef survived Auschwitz and five other Nazi concentration camps, and spent his life after the Shoah bringing Nazis to justice.
He passed away today at 98.
