I had someone tell me they couldn’t see the Instagram videos I share on here.
So I’ve uploaded the video to my YouTube channel and will see if that works.
Please let me know.
It’s 3min long so hopefully you have time to watch it.
Israeli “TRAUMA”
Trying something new here...
Thankyou Veronica, it works beautifully!
Absolutely adored the 3 chapters of your book you read aloud when feeling ‘poorly’ one weekend…. not that I want you to be feeling miserable again… but still, if you need encouragement let me offer plenty.
Oh yes Jillian Segal is a big trigger word for me; and thanks for revealing her side kick pot hole partner. I didn’t know about him :(((
Sadly, another trigger word now (almost) is peace, especially when it starts to feel like a thick heavy blanket and voices are silenced.
Peace without truth is useless.
Thank you for your article. I found it particularly interesting. As a survivor of childhood trauma due to sibling on sibling and sibling on parent violence and emotional abuse, it infuriates me when people use the word trauma as an excuse for either their own or friends behaviour and the horrific way governments have treated indigenous people over the centuries. Using the Holocaust as a reason for years of ethnic cleansing and apartheid is disgusting, Israeli’s are not “ traumatised” because of this. Their total disregard for life and the rules of war have developed through generations of indoctrination and the implicit, unquestionable support of Western governments.
