War Is Hell - Damn The War!
The important thing to remember about any international crisis is that it is all about us and never really about them. Nationalism is a solipsistic creed and, here at least, the SNP can rarely resist living down to your expectations. https://t.co/2h9xa8iyyo

Fair comment from Alex Massie.
Humza Yousaf is always keen to speak out publicly about the situation in Gaza, but his reluctance to address the role of Hamas is shameful.
A one-sided ceasefire is no ceasefire at all.
"For until you address the question of Hamas, you address nothing. Sometimes it is useful to return to first principles. If granted the opportunity, would Hamas repeat October 7? Everything we know about the organisation suggests it would. Hamas is not merely an “anti-Zionist” movement, it is an explicitly “antisemitic” and genocidal one too. If it could slaughter every Jew, it would happily do so."
