Gaza: Murder, good for the soul (Update)

Could it be? Can there really be a genre of humans who enjoy seeing people murdered? Witnessing people murdered for whatever reason followed by the enjoyment of articulating rationales? A cornucopia of sanctimonious testimonies of justification with somber sounds of satisfaction? A prize to be won? Could it be? Is it true? I wonder as I wander....
As always,
BB
(Update)
From the ever sanity of buhdyharma. Ah, were I teaching a Civic Class…..
“The Rule of Law is what stands between us and them to prevent it. The powerful believe they are above the Rule of Law. They believe in fact that their word IS the Rule of Law, because of their power. It is not. They believe that they can kill, invade, torture, steal and lay waste where ever and however they wish. And they have. What can stop them? What can stop their savagery? What can stop them from dragging us all back into the mud of savagery? They are powerful and control armies and police and even 'secret' police. Opposing them by force of arms only makes them stronger, only drags us back into the mud of killing and savagery with them.”
