| Mods, can you please tell ASPartOfMe to stop gaslighting me? I firmly believe ASPartOfMe believes everything he wrote, so if we are being linguistically correct it's not gaslighting. Hanlon's Razor: "Never attribute to malice what can be attributed to ignorance." Can any of what he's sayi... |

| If you evacuate a hospital patients will die. If you bomb an hospital patients will die. Do not bomb hospitals. Easier said than done. Airstrikes on densely populated areas will always lead to some stray bombs exploding where you don't intend them to, even if you're deliberately trying to avoid tha... |

| Great post, Mona, a lot of good points, especially the last paragraph about the right(s) of return.
