As a Jew who grew up just after the Holocaust, with relatives who fled pogroms and a grandfather named Israel, I take “never again” seriously. And that means never again for anyone.

Never again is now.

A startling admission is buried in the @nytimes today: Israeli officials admit they are fine with “mass civilian casualties” in Gaza. The Israeli officials also cite the dropping of atomic bombs on Japan to justify the scale of expected civilian death in Gaza. Unconscionable.
