I wish I didn’t care that Palestinian children are going
thirsty so that rich Israelis living on occupied land can have nice swimming
pools to relax in, while the kids’ fathers are arrested and beaten up for
trying to get them some water to drink. I wish I didn’t care that America is so
afraid of upsetting the Israeli government that they stand idly by on the
pretext that ‘erm, it’s complicated.’ (That’s what Mr Obama said when I wrote
an email of complaint to him.) I wish I didn’t care that the UN continues to
prove itself a paper tiger.
But I do, and it makes me feel ill.
And I’m going well off
Emma Watson. What a disappointment she turned out to be. Long story.
(Did I mention a modicum of passing interest in a celebrity?
Now I’m disappointing myself.)
