The entire world is witness to a form of mass insanity. In response to the brutal murder of more than 1,200 innocent people by a gang of savage terrorists together with the taking of more than 200 hostages, people and governments are supporting the murderers and, in so doing, are committing a moral sin of cosmic proportions. The collective disgrace is beyond comprehension.
The pressure seems to be focused on Israel, instead of on the Hamas murderers. The Biden/Harris administration, many Western governments, protestors on college campuses, and even Israeli citizens are siding with the terrorists. “Why isn’t Netanyahu doing more to gain the release of the hostages?” “Why aren’t we insisting on a ceasefire?” This is what happened after October 7th and it happened again this week when Hamas brutally murdered six hostages. What they are all missing is that Netanyahu didn’t kill those people, Hamas terrorists did.
Attorney Leo Terrell put it succinctly: “Where’s the pressure on Hamas?” Alan Dershowitz agreed. The question, Dershowitz said, is not why isn’t Israel doing more to gain the release of the hostages. The question is, why isn’t Hamas releasing the hostages? “Bring them home” puts the onus on Israel. The slogan should be, “Let them go.” Israel does not have a responsibility to sacrifice its national security. No, Hamas has a clear obligation to release the hostages.
The protests have nothing to do with ceasefires, Dershowitz says, they have to do with cease Israel. Hamas’ stated goal is the elimination of the State of Israel. If Israel agrees to a ceasefire, Hamas wins. Hamas will be free to reconstitute itself and continue its assaults on Israel. That is why Netanyahu is correct in aiming for the complete obliteration of Hamas.
The craziness of the response to the Hamas atrocities was articulated by British commentator Piers Morgan: “I was in London on October 7th. There were thousands of people gathering near the Israeli embassy. I mistakenly thought they were there in support of the people of Israel. They were there celebrating what Hamas has done to innocent Israeli civilians. There were thousands within hours. In New York. In London. In Sydney. People were saying ‘gas the Jews.’ These are supposedly civilized democratic societies—the instinctive response of the populaces in these countries was to celebrate what happened. That’s a terrifying thing.”
“They are cheering on a terrorist organization,” said Lara Trump. “An organization that beheads babies, that murders Holocaust survivors, that holds people hostage.” Every time you support Hamas, said Victor Davis Hanson, you’re supporting murder. “You’re no different than the people who go across and butcher civilians.”
“The Democratic Caucus is afraid to stand up against terrorists,” said Newt Gingrich. Democrats are “opposed to the survival of Israel. There is no question in my mind that AOC and Ilhan and Tlaib and their friends are just plain pro-terrorist members,” Gingrich said. “In the left wing of the Democratic Party, anti-Semitism and the desire to destroy Israel is now a dominant, real factor.”
The position of the Biden/Harris administration is purely political, says Leo Terrell. The Democrats are concerned about the Muslim Arab population in Michigan. “If they don’t win Michigan,” says Terrell, “they can’t win the election so that’s the game plan right now. Guess who’s being sacrificed—who’s being thrown under the bus? Jewish-Americans and the State of Israel. Israel is our strongest ally and the Biden/Harris administration has abandoned them.”
What about Harris the presidential candidate? “Harris is signaling that she is not going to lift a finger for Israel,” says Terrell. Trump is the only one who has Israel’s back.
The media has played a major role in advancing a hostile attitude toward Israeli self-defense, intentionally depicting Palestinians as innocent victims. In fact, there is nothing innocent about the inhabitants of Gaza. The vast majority of Palestinians approve of the October 7th atrocities and Hamas’ intention to kill Jews.
CNN has argued that Israel violates international law when it targets civilian sites in Gaza. Not true. Israel has done more to prevent civilian harm than any military in history. Civilians usually account for 80-90% of casualties, a ratio of one combatant to 9 civilians. In Gaza, the ratio is one combatant to 1.5 civilians. Israel receives no applause, only one-sided condemnation.
The breakout of antisemitic protests is largely attributable to growing Muslim influence in the West. According to Jihad Watch, 57% of American Muslims agree that the Hamas atrocities were justified. “Immigration has imported terrorism and support for it inside the United States,” Jihad Watch reports. “Islamic terrorism has become endemic and indigenous to America. How long until we have our own ‘Hamas’ in America?”
The celebration of Hamas that is spreading across America and Western Europe is symptomatic of moral disintegration. As Douglas Murray explains in The Strange Death of Europe, Europeans and Americans are increasingly unable to argue for the advantages of Western culture and accomplishments. Those who support Hamas atrocities are contributing to the destruction of our own moral standards. This is nothing less than mass insanity.

Thanks for this link.
The all time worst terrorists and terrorists supporters is the United Nations
If the islamic cowards surrender, the war is over.
The war would be over if they were all dispatched from this reality sooner rather than later. An indisputable fact that most people are too prudish to admit out loud is that the only enemy you can trust is a dead enemy.
Seems like our parents, the Greatest Generation, had no problem with that concept. But they raised their descendants to be too squeamish to think that way. It’s a pity.

I like the idea that…
Since Russia attacked Ukraine… everyone should support Russia !
Hypocrisy has no end…
Why ? The answer is simple Ed. The consensus is the Jews deserved it. As I have posted before here, nothing has changed for the Jews in all of history and are considered sub-human. Thus, what was done to them on 10/7 was acceptable and justified. regardless how horrific the details. . How evil can you get ? Really. The human race has made little progress, if any. Sad.
Well, I can’t find anyone who is not a Muslim who can give me a reasonable explanation of why they hate the Jews? Guess they don’t do any research into the truth?
A must watch / listen interview. Moriel is finishing a book about hundreds of conversations he had with Arabs all over the world as he embarked on a journey to learn Arabic. He explains their culture and mentality from inside those conversations. Listen closely and then share.
100 upvotes from me, Kardas
It is only 80 years since the civilized world, that part of it that wasn’t murdering its Jews, did next to nothing to save them from catastrophe. Little has changed since then except that the Islamic world has taken upon itself to finish the task that the Christian nations of Europe couldn’t quite manage to pull off.
I think the situation is worse now. There were few in unconquered countries who were disposed to cheer on Hitler – whereas there are now many who applaud Hamas.
Few? few Christians. We are not your enemy any more. I am sorry for the Crusades, the impetus to which was given by that era’s Kings with power motives and little regard for life. Wars were normal throughout the world; wish it were less so today — but alas.
Many of us Christians LOVE Jews, Israel, the history which includes/ allows/ gives ALL the Jewish version and some of us even read it for inspiration (in fact, this is where God gave us the foundation of our spiritual beliefs!) The US govt unfortunately has not been always trustworthy here — but that is Jews AND Christians and others.
The mask has been pulled off anti-Semitism and Jew-hate: that is what it really is. Useful idiots of Jewish Voice for Peace – which is neither Jewish nor peaceful – need to wake up. The Islamists will go after them next.
JVP membership needs to be turned over to ISIS.
What distinguishes “Islamists” from Muslims? Let’s be honest…it’s a distinction without a difference.
Islamist is the word for a Muslim who is caught doing violence.
. . . or advocating it, or supporting it in any form against all who are non-Muslim. Jihadist would be a more appropriate term for those Muslims who war against non-Muslims. Islamist should apply also to those advocate imposition of Sharia law.
This election will see what is more important to American Jews the future of the only Jewish, democratic country in the world or their allegiance to the Dem. party. Sadly I get the feeling its not good for Jews and Israel.
Release our hostages NOW! Defeat Hamas NOW!!!!!!!!!!
“Defeat” doesn’t fully capture what is needed. “Annihilation” would be more appropriate.
The ONLY way to prevent another Muslim attack from Gaza is to remove all the Arabs from Gaza.
I am in favor of Bibi and the IDF killing the Hamas enemy who will not release people rightly. They are liars and killers and not desirable neighbors, always wanting more and refusing to agree to reasonable arrangements for peace. We keep making agreements but they don’t get honored and then more people get killed or captured. It is like a crazy hamster wheel, never-ending.
