Never in my entire life I have witnessed such a distance between “the people” and “their governments” as in these months in Europe. My heart bleeds, twice because I think that most of the people will forget about everything, when it’s time to vote again.

Feeling the same way over here in the U.S. 💔

The health care community is emotionally drained and conflicts where there is unethical treatment on both sides requires a level of empathy I think is lacking. There is a growing discomfort in taking sides because of the fear that a dietitian might be disliked or accused of being wrong. As you pointed out, how is it wrong to take a stand for human rights? Why is there a question about this in the dietetic community? I have many thoughts and theories that run much deeper that the human right atrocities in Gaza. It takes courage to draw a line in the sand and say, “This is wrong.” Your article has done this. Feeling gratitude. 🥰🙏💕
