From October 7 to November 1, the voices critical of Israel are growing louder by the day. A case in point is the Americas, after a day when Bolivia became the first nation to sever ties with Tel Aviv, while Chile and Colombia recalled their ambassadors. The Israelis may claim that Tuesday's bombing of the Jabalia refugee camp killed a senior Hamas commander, but was it worth the lives of dozens of civilians including women and children?
Make no mistake, Latin American nations overwhelmingly condemned the Hamas slaughter of civilians. At least 15 Argentinians are listed as hostages. But the slow rollout of the ground offensive and the trickle of aid going into a blockaded Gaza have provoked sharp reactions.
Like in France and the UK, the war in the Middle East is splitting apart the left in the United States. Is it enough to scar the Democratic Party as it heads into an election cycle?
