Shame you didn’t care enough to hope

Several news outlets are reporting that Palestinians waiting for food aid have been killed or wounded after being shot at by Israeli forces in Gaza.

See: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-68443883 

To those councillors here in Shetland who abstained or voted against the motion to call on our government to call for a cease fire by all parties in Israel/Palestine to get aid into Gaza, shame on you.

It might not have made much difference, but it would have showed you cared enough to hope.
