Depravity is not Just on the Side of Hamas: Israel is Depraved as Well

    Some things will never be right. Some things can never be justified. Will we look at what Israeli soldiers are doing and suppose their conduct falls anywhere near the realm of human decency?
   Will we hear of detainees stripped naked as a form of sexual humiliation, their hands and feet bound, and they are stomped on and beaten with rifle butts -- will we hear of that and look the other way?
   Can we look away? Can we say that's all fine?
   Will we hear of Hamas soldiers surrendering, putting their weapons down, and getting on the ground, waving a piece of white clothing to represent a white flag, only to be massacred by Israeli gunfire -- will we hear of that and look the other way?
   Can we look away? Can we say it is fine? 
   Depravity is not only on the side of Hamas, it is on the side of Israel. I know not what else to call such acts, but depravity. Let us cry out in shame against Israel; Let us cry out in shame against our good friend, Israel.
  You don't just say they are your friends, and let the matter go. You don't just say they are God's children. If they are God's children, let them grow up and act like it. They lack the innocence of children, and they lack the innocence of God's children.
