If you intend to use this day to publicly memorialize the Palestinian dead in this awful war, please consider:

In 1942, would December 7th have been the right day to publicly memorialize the Japanese dead from the Doolittle raid? And before you answer that, I hope you’ll think it through.

There are 364 other days in the year. The date “October 7th” marks a massacre that will be seared into the psyche of every Israeli man, woman, and child (and those that love them) for generations.

I understand your need to publicly memorialize the Palestinian dead. Pick a different day, or be seen as a ghoul.
