Intoxicated by an antisemitic orgy of hate for which it has become a world leader outside of the usual suspects in the Arab and Islamic world, the South African government has been leading the charge of criminal action against Israel in the International Court of Justice (ICJ). On Friday, the ICJ issued a one-sided unjust ruling that Israel must end its military operation in Gaze to free the hostages and destroy them. In a world where despite its just cause Israel stands more and more alone, with the list of allies if not actual friends growing shorter and shorter, this is not surprising even if it is shocking.
In its more than thirty minutes ruling, the ICJ only mentioned the Hamas war crime of kidnapping and holding 125 hostages, in just one line, with no consequence to Hamas or demand that all the hostages be returned unconditionally. The court ordered Israel to halt its military offensive on the southern Gaza City, and Hamas stronghold, Rafah. The ICJ made no demands on, or recognition of, any culpability for Hamas and its terrorist and genocidal agenda and actions, for its massacre of 1200 people in one day on October 7, to release the hostages they still hold in captivity illegally, or censured Hamas for unspeakable sexual crimes.
The late ICJ legal action followed South Africa bringing baseless charges of genocide against Israel earlier this year in which all but one of the judges representing 15 nations voted to allow the legal case to go through. This week, the Lebanese judge led the charge against Israel.
Earlier the same week, the International Criminal Court (ICC) prosecutor announced intentions to issue arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and Defense Minister Galant, equating them to the genocidal terrorist leaders of Hamas. Few nations have responded to call out the injustice of this kangaroo court, it’s overreach and lack of jurisdiction, the unimaginable comparison between Israel and Hamas, or the very antisemitic nature of its prosecutor and the ICC itself by holding Israel to a different standard than other nations of the world.
Not to be left on the sideline, the same week, Ireland, Norway, and Spain colluded to become the latest countries to recognize a fictitious “State of Palestine,” a punitive act against Israel and a gift to the terrorists. If Hamas celebrates, you know it’s immoral. These nations made their policy clear: that if you massacre enough Jews, we will appease you and recognize your independence without having to negotiate with Israel, or renounce terror against Israel. This is now the state policy of these three morally bankrupt nations.
The last time anyone used recognition of “Palestine” to embarrass and undermine Jewish sovereignty was in the Second Century when the Roman Empire renamed the Biblical land which it had seized and, after a failed revolt against Rome, called it “Palestina.” Debunking claims that today’s “Palestinians” are the indigenous people in the Land, this was also the first time the name “Palestine” was ever used. 1000 years after King David. Ever. What that means is that it was indeed the Jews who rebelled against Rome, who were routed and then taken into captivity as slaves, in the First and Second Centuries were in fact the indigenous people of the Land, deeded by the Jewish people to God.
The fact that Roman coins and inscriptions of the time reference “Judea capta” or Judea are captured, and not “Palestina capta” is all the truth one needs to know. But historical fact and what it means today is too inconvenient for the nations of the world coming against Israel.
Speaking of standing alone, Israel was shocked when the entire UN Security Council stood for a moment of silence following the death of Iranian President Raisi. The US, and all the western representatives, actually paid tribute to a man who was known as the “Butcher of Tehran” and the “Ayatollah of Execution.” There was zero recognition for the suffering of millions of Iranians under his reign, or for the countless victims of Islamic terror, funded and planned, by the Iranian regime, in Israel and around the world.
While it’s a prophecy of the nations standing against Israel, something tells me that even Zechariah, in his prophetic words (12:2-4) would be sickened by all this.
…2 “Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of drunkenness to all the surrounding peoples. Judah will be besieged, as well as Jerusalem. 3 On that day, when all the nations of the earth gather against her, I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples; all who would heave it away will be severely injured. 4On that day, declares the LORD, I will strike every horse with panic, and every rider with madness. I will keep a watchful eye on the house of Judah, but I will strike with blindness all the horses of the nations.…
Under a cloud of international condemnation, the world needs to sober up from the drunkenness that it is exhibiting. We need to have an intervention, not just before it is too late for Israel, but the rest of the world where the same evil Islamic extremism is finding beachhead after beachhead, entangling itself among Western societies, twisting their morals, and making them and their citizens unsafe.
Even if it’s uncomfortable, even if you’ll lose some “friends,” and even if it goes against the mob, the mandate today is to speak out. Do not let the haters get away with a word of antisemitism. Stand with Israel and the Jewish people proactively, and demonstrably. Pray for Israel and make sure your church or synagogue is praying for Israel. This is the obligation of a moral society. While the nations are standing against Israel, you can be a light in the darkness. It’s simply good vs. evil.
Not entirely alone.
A lot of us just don’t hold positions in the press, or Sleepy Joe’s back-stabbing administration.
Give those murdering evil Islamists hell, Bibi.
I’d say they forgot Oct 7th, but they never gave a damn in the 1st place.
We do. We’re just not interviewed by sycophants in the press.
Talk about collective punishment…. the critics of Israel dine out on it.
No nation, including Israel, should be immune from criticism. Simply go to any search engine and type in “Where’s Daddy” lavender and “Yuval Abraham” and scores of articles pop up discussing the very issue. The use of AI to track and target human beings for killing is a moral issue worthy of discussion.
“Islamic extremism is finding beachhead after beachhead, entangling itself among Western societies, twisting their morals, and making them and their citizens unsafe…. the obligation of a moral society.”
The dominant moral code of the West is altruism and self-sacrifice for others. Altruism is the dominant moral code of Christianity, Islam, and Marxism.
The West is committing suicidal altruism but not because of Islam. “Turn the other cheek” and “love your enemy” doesn’t come from the Koran, it comes from the Sermon on the Mount.
“You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’ But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well. If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles. Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.
“You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor[i] and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.” – Sermon on the Mount
Self-preservation is not based on altruism but on rational selfishness.
“All rights rest on the ethics of egoism. Rights are an individual’s SELFISH possessions—HIS title to HIS life, HIS liberty, HIS property, the pursuit of HIS own happiness. Only a being who is an end in himself can claim a moral sanction to independent action. If man existed to serve an entity beyond himself, whether God or society, then he would not have rights, but only the duties of a servant.” – Leonard Peikoff, “Objectivism: The Philosophy of Ayn Rand”
Mohammed raped a corpse, saying that he was alleviating the woman’s sufferings in the grave. It wasn’t that he wanted to do it, you understand – pure altruism, just like the similar behaviour of Oct 7th.
Muslims are not real human beings.
Un oh. Time to crack open a beer. The THX Beer drinking game has been invoked. Today’s word of the day is altruism.
You whine and bitch and moan but you never say when you are going help stop Islam. You are a lazy self-centered bum.
After all your motto is: “I don’t recognize any such absurdity as service to my country. I recognize a moral responsibility to my freedom and liberty and the freedom and liberty of those I love.”
You are all talk. No one takes you seriously except when you blabber on about Somerset Maugham and his drivel.
There are no such things as “indigenous” rights. Palestinian rights, Jewish rights, Muslim rights, Arab rights, or tribal rights.
The only rights that exist are the Rights of Man, i.e., individual rights and their implementation, the private property rights of the individual.
The moral legitimacy of Israel rests not on the fact that it is a safe haven for Jews, but that it protects and defends individual rights. Islam does not. The Palestinians do not. The Muslim Arab states do not.
A more civilized people have every moral right to invade, conquer, and civilize a primitive, savage, and tribal people. But not the other way around, there is no right of a tribe to enslave and crush the free and civilized individual. There is no right to a nation’s self-determination if that nation is determined to create a dictatorship. There is no right to enslave.
“The Arabs are one of the least developed cultures. They are typically nomads. Their culture is primitive, and they resent Israel because it’s the sole beachhead of modern science and civilization on their continent. When you have civilized men fighting savages, you support the civilized men, no matter who they are. Israel is a mixed economy inclined toward socialism. But when it comes to the power of the mind—the development of industry in that wasted desert continent—versus savages who don’t want to use their minds, then if one cares about the future of civilization, don’t wait for the government to do something. Give whatever you can. This is the first time I’ve contributed to a public cause: helping Israel in an emergency.” – Ayn Rand
Thank God there are no Objectivists rights either. But you seem to think you have the right to criticize anyone who doesn’t buy into your B.S.
We would all be enslaved if we became like you.
Lost in all the shouting, finger pointing and condemnation is the fact that Israel is a nuclear power. A fact that Israel’s enemies has better be cautiously mindful of.
It looks like the International Criminal Court (it’s the court that’s criminal) is taking on the form of the courts in New York. No crime is needed, no unanimity of the jury is required … just convict on all counts … convict, convict, convict. So New York’ now a “banana republic. Mark Steyn notes ruefully that the “expression ‘banana republic’ was coined for Guatemala and Honduras; it’s a problem of an entirely different scale when a great power does it”. Right. The U.S. is now a gigundo banana republic and the entire world is following it right into the abyss. We really do need a new word when the world becomes the banana republic.
To whatever extent there even is a free world any more the U.S. isn’t its leader.
Israel is.
Israel was founded by Almighty God.
Christianity was founded by Jesus, the Son of Almighty God.
Islam was founded by a lying pedophile.
The Lion of the Tribe of Judah is coming back to judge the nations and make war. He is coming back as the Lion, not the Lamb and his justice will prevail!
Problem is that he was also a medium, and that’s where their spiritual power comes from, from demons. Not that we can’t confront that in the name of Jesus, but so many people don’t seem to realise what is really going on, or that Allah is not Yahweh.
I blame the Saudi “Royal” family for much of the hatred and murder of Jews and Israelis.
They and their Wahabi psychopaths have been deliberately inciting and propagating and brainwashing and indoctrinating Moo–Slums to murder Jews and make war against Israel for more than 50 years…
This is deliberate policy against Israel perpetrated by the Wahabi ideology and the Saudi “Royal” Sh!t family.
The Saudi “Royal” Sh!t family alone has enough oil, wealth and power and influence to end the world Islamic aggression and war against Israel overnight if it chose to do so.
They deliberately choose to not do so,
The Saudis are deceptive liars … snakes … and definitely the insidious truly evil enemy of Israel and America.
They really use their money wealth power and influence to spread hate misery terrorism war and lies.
They have no intention of promoting peace with Israel and Jews and America.
They are using their wealth power and influence to undermine and corrupt America’s political and corporate and Institutional leaders … and they are succeeding. Saudi “Royal” family oil, wealth, power, and influence are used to convince corrupted American political leaders and the ruling class to betray Israel and Jews, and to betray America and US citizens themselves.
The Saudi “Royal” Sh!t family is bribing America to commit its own suicide.
Wake up Israel and America. The Saudi “Royal” Sh!t family is your depraved insidious psychopathic murderous berserk deceptive truly evil enemy.
Depraved psychopathic murderous berserk violent Freedom crushing Islam has been a scourge on humanity for 1400 years.
Enough already.
My wife and I stand with Israel alongside countless other Danes. We are those never asked our opinion, We are anonymous friends of Israel looking foreward to visiting the Holy land again. We think the West has gone mad, especially the higher educated. A justifiable anger is brewing within our hearts, as if getting ready for another crusade although we are old pensioners. Praise for Israels brave soldiers, boys and girls! Wish I could stand shoulder to shoulder with such fine young people of valor!
European Jews were descended from the people of Israel and Judea who were scattered and exiled as the result of various conquests. Palestinian Arabs are, in the main, the descendants of 19th and 20th century immigrants into the area, but some of them are the descendants of the Arabs who conquered Judea for Islam in the 7th century. Immigrants have rights, as do the descendants of a conquering army (who are not responsible for the behaviour of their forebears) but those rights do not trump those of the Jews. If it is the Palestinians who are the indigenous people of the Holy Land, why would the IDF have to guard archaeological sites to stop them from destroying them? The answer is that artefacts are turned up which have Hebrew inscriptions referencing the kings in the Bible, when the inscriptions should be in Arabic if the Palestinians are the people who have been there since antiquity.
I do not know why this issue is contentious.
Jews are both ethnicity and religion, right? They have proselytes from every other nation – just like Christianity. The Jews have been dispersed throughout the world and have miscegenated with the different peoples of those nations. There are still Jews who never left Israel and the area around it – and it is arguable that these Jews are less miscegenated than other families within Judaism – but they are not thereby MORE Jewish, are they?
Abraham came from Ur in Chaldea, and wherever his descendants have been living ever since he left it doesn’t alter the fact that they originate from the Middle East. The miracle is that contrary to all other displaced tribes, they never dissolved and disappear during their long diaspora.
TRUE AMERICANS, stand with Israel.
DEATH TO HAMAS.
Israel needs a Winston Churchill Right Now
Israel has one, Bibi Netanyahu.
Israel 🇮🇱 never stands alone.
It has the greatest ally of all.
GOD
Islamist Mohammed Hijab explains his Jihad. “The reason why you have to fight them, is because they are Jews & Christians. You should fight them until they give you the Jizya (extra taxes). There is no conceivability of peace between Muslims & non-Muslims.
“Islam is a warrior religion, it’s about expansion & conquest.”

With God on Israel’s side, the maniacal riffraff don’t stand a chance.
“To free the hostagescand destry them?”
In the Bible, Zechariah 14:2 states, “For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city”
One million Jews were expelled from Arab lands after the recreation of Israel.
I used to correspond with Professor Eugene Narrett, author of WORLD WAR III and THE WAR AGAINST THE JEWS.. We used to discuss subjects such as Esav, world religions, and I listened to him once on Israel National Radio. It’s a shame that such a brilliant man was hit by a car in Massachusetts and perished.
Lately, I’ve been meditating quite a bit on Psalms. Although I have been traumatized by antisemitic/antiChristian hate, the Lord has sustained my health by prayer (including for Israel), for righteous leadership to be restored in America, and for the healing & safety of others.. Also for President Trump, as it is difficult to comprehend such vehement hatred against an ex real estate magnate, and the corrupt means that radical leftists have weaponized the legal system against us all. Psalm 3 is Spirit strengthening, especially during dark times such as these.
3 (0) A psalm of David, when he fled from Avshalom his son:
2 (1) Adonai, how many enemies I have!
How countless are those attacking me;
3 (2) how countless those who say of me,
“There is no salvation for him in God.” (Selah)
4 (3) But you, Adonai, are a shield for me;
you are my glory, you lift my head high.
5 (4) With my voice I call out to Adonai,
and he answers me from his holy hill. (Selah)
6 (5) I lie down and sleep, then wake up again,
because Adonai sustains me.
7 (6) I am not afraid of the tens of thousands
set against me on every side.
8 (7) Rise up, Adonai!
Save me, my God!
For you slap all my enemies in the face,
you smash the teeth of the wicked.
9 (8) Victory comes from Adonai;
may your blessing rest on your people. (Selah)
The reason Israel has been condemned by Spain, Ireland and Norway is due to the unrelentless brainwashing of the West undertaken by the islamo-leftist clique since the end of WWII. We are back to 1936, when the Western countries refused to believe in the threat of annihilation of the Jewish population by the German National SOCIALISM – except now, it’s by the islamo-SOCIALIST clique.
The difference is that now Israel is back to its ancestral home with the necessary military might to defend its 9 million Israelis. And by God, let’s Israel use it freely to fulfill the “Never Again” oath!
