10 Much has been said in recent weeks about the Flotilla affair. We live in insanely complicated times, where it's hard to stop and distinguish, weigh, and qualify what to do in each case, or how to position ourselves or not in the face of the countless disasters that surround us. The war in Gaza, or anything related to Palestine, has kept us ahead of our time and divided us for many decades, and it has now taken on tragic dimensions, given how Israel is capable of mounting a response to the attacks its citizens suffered two years ago. There is very likely a great deal of overzealousness here, or a disproportionate armed, military, or warlike response, even though using the word "genocide" is a last resort, or a way to draw attention to a series of massacres that should be investigated by international justice.
