I am a member of that left, and I would not be thrilled or even satisfied at the "triumph" of Palestinian resistance. Israel brought this war about by years and years of treating Palestinians no better than some Southerners and some police in my country treat Black people. Hamas instigated it rather than discussing a two-state solution to the problem. Nothing whatsoever about this war is something I can, should, or would support. And I care more than a whit. Sorry about this: I am often informed by your articles.
