Is it too much to ask for jewish lives - children to grandparents - to be valued? Where are the calls for Hamas to stop bombing Israel? And to release the civilian hostages? Why is the ceasefire asked of Israel alone? Why in 2023 do Jews have to fight to be seen & valued? I believe all human lives are sacred & I cry for each life taken. There is a dearth of balance here that I am calling out. I’m heartbroken that many of my fellow progressives have abandoned us.
