Goal: A good and happy life, now. And a comfortable retirement in old age – if one makes it that far.
Isn’t that what everyone hopes for?
“Not people in Gaza,” someone will say. “They just hope for peace, and for the bombs to stop.”
Correct, I will answer. For now, they desperately hope every single day for peace and quiet, and for food and medicine and other supplies to reach them. And to be able to start rebuilding their homes and schools and hospitals and other infrastructure.
But what will they wish for if the psychotic-terrorist European colonial project called Israel is finally defeated in its efforts to wipe out Palestinians and steal their land? What will they hope for when their homes and hospitals and schools and mosques and churches are rebuilt?
They will most likely hope for a good and happy life, and a comfortable retirement in old age, if their lives stretch that far.
