Almost a year later and…

By Phyllis Chesler

#Hamas’s 10/7#pogrom is still happening, it’s not over yet–and already I’m overwhelmed by the number of 10/7 films, plays, songs, pop-up museums, gatherings, memorial services, that are also upon us–as if we fear that we are running out of time, and need to document #survivor, #witness, and #rescuer testimonies before–what? Before it’s too late? Before World War Three is fully upon us? Before the world as we’ve known it ends? Before we lose our global communication access, and our umbilicord cord to the immediate universe snaps, and we each drift away like so many lost astraunauts, adrift in space?

Having said this, please also allow me to salute Israel’s military and humanitarian brilliance, its surgical, targeted strikes against Hezbollah leaders, soldiers, and collaborators. It will go down in military history. Forget about the defamation that is also upon us. Israel (David), will again defeat Goliath and it will do so alone, the only nation who dares to defend the West, stand against #Iran and its’ many terrorist proxies.
