    You should care. The people are not the leadership.

      Apparently the people don’t care enough to stop their soldiers from burning kids alive. Why should I care what happens to them?

        That’s pretty reductive. How much power do you think the Israeli people have?

        I’m American. I know my country is funding this genocide. All I have is my vote, which has very little impact. I care a lot, but other than my vote I’m powerless to stop my government from arming Israel.

        The Israeli citizens are similarly powerless.
