"The defeat, forever, lies in the fact that a state that views itself as
the heir of the victims of genocide carried out by Nazi Germany has
generated this hell in less than nine months, with an end not yet in
sight. Call it genocide. Don’t call it genocide. The structural failure
lies not in the fact that the G-word was affixed to the name “Israel” in
the resounding petition filed by South Africa at the International
Court of Justice. The failure lies in the refusal of most Israeli Jews
to listen to the alarm bells in this petition." - Amira Hass in Ha'aretz
