Truth is always a causality in war

Yesterday the Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israel is behaving in a moral manner. He went on to say that the Israeli Defence Force does everything to avoid killing or injuring civilians.

If what we see on television, the damage, the killing the destruction, is the best the IDF can do, it must be  one of the world’s most inefficient armies.

The truth is always one of the first casualties of war.

As the Israelis claim they avoid killing innocent civilians, the Russians talk about crimes committed by Ukraine in Belgorod.

May 2024 be a kind year to readers of this blog. Let us pray and hope that political leaders will call hone their troops and let the guns fall silent.
