“We left the meeting very disappointed because Netanyahu talked about dismantling Hamas as the goal of the war.”

🧵
“We later found out that Hamas had offered on October 9 or 10 to release all the civilian hostages in exchange for the IDF not entering the Strip, but the government rejected the offer.”

🧵
“There is no doubt that Netanyahu is preventing a deal. Netanyahu knows that if he goes to elections at this time he won’t be able to form a new government, and he is motivated by cold political considerations.”

What these people are advocating is child abuse. I know the way they put it doesn't sound bad, but this is about a very controlled, clinically callous form of manipulation. I'll drop some more links below so you can understand the context.

Why is it so hard for people in the field of ABA to improve the field, even with the support of autistic activists? One of the reasons is this:
