Compassion and Gaza

A real Hirschian will feel compassion for the people of Gaza for what they are enduring underneath American and British made bombs dropped by the Israeli air force and the Israeli blockade of food supplies. 

“Compassion is the feeling of sympathy which the pain of one being awakens in another; and the higher and more human the beings are, the more keenly attuned they are to re-echo the note of suffering, which, like a voice from heaven, penetrates the heart, bringing all creatures a proof of their kinship in the universal God. And as for man, whose function it is to show respect and love for God's universe and all its creatures, his heart has been created so tender that it feels with the whole organic world bestowing sympathy even on beings devoid of feeling, mourning even for fading flowers; so that, if nothing else, the very nature of his heart must teach him that he is required above everything to feel himself the brother of all beings, and to recognize the claim of all beings to his love and his beneficence.” 

R' Samson R. Hirsch, Horeb,125

By October 2024, Israel said it bombed 40,000 locations[4] in the Gaza Strip (which is 360 km2). By one estimate, as of April 2024 the bomb tonnage dropped on Gaza was more than 70,000 tonnes,[5] surpassing the combined bomb tonnage dropped on Dresden, Hamburg, and London in World War II.[6] Satellite imagery showed at least 69% of all buildings were damaged or destroyed,[7][8] which surpasses the scale of destruction in Cologne and Dresden and approaches that of Hamburg during World War II.[2][9]  (Wikipedia)
