Taylor it is true that the Palestinians didn’t start this war but neither did the Israelis. It was the Palestinian elected government called Hamas that started the war. Hamas replaced Yasser Arafat’s P.L.O. backed and financed by the number one state sponsor of terrorism in the world Iran.
Hamas specifically targeted Israeli civilians not military facilities, bases or combatants where Israel targets military targets and combatants. The difficult part of fighting Hamas is unfortunately they deliberately build their military encampments in, around and under civilian infrastructures like schools, library’s, playground’s, hospitals, senior centers, medical care centers, etc. This was done deliberately to neutralize the IDFs military offensive effect.
That creates a problem for Israel because they do not target civilians, as a matter of fact, they have always warned Palestinians of the next location of the next assault on Hamas and at times it is at civilian places because that’s where Hamas is.
What is the solution to avoid civilian casualties. Retreat, take fire and not fire back? This is a formula for disaster on both sides. Dammed if you do and dammed if you don’t. If you don’t fire back there are more dead Israeli soldiers and also more injuries. If you do the media and the anti-Israeli action groups accuse you of genocide.
If you want to save lives and win the war Hamas gives you no choice but to retreat and surrender. In effect you are aiding the enemy and from the river to the sea could be a reality. From the river to the sea is the call for genocide for Jews and the elimination of Israel.
Instead of turning the other cheek the IDF warns Palestinian civilians to move out of the way. Hamas does not do that. They want to kill Israeli civilians. Israel tries not to kill Palestinian civilians.
The attack on Israel 0ct 7 2023 was a deliberate, masochistic assault on the most vulnerable. Old men and woman, infants and young children, pregnant mothers and the disabled who were attacked as Hamas chanted from the river to the sea while they filmed their gruesome sadistic assault on these Israeli civilians with head mounted go pro camera’s.
The river to the sea means to eradicate Jews and eliminate Israel completely, the only Jewish state in the world while there are over 35 Arab and Muslim states and a Palestinian state called Jordan. Jordan and Egypt won’t allow Palestinians into their country. Why because the Palestinians are ruled by Hamas. Hamas is a terrorist threat to Jordan and Egypt and other middle eastern countries.
The bible says the land of Israel is the historical and biblical home of the Jews. Christianity arrived after and then Islam came. The name Jews came from the name of the biblical area called Judea and Samaria.
There are 53 Muslim majority countries and 22 Arab countries but only 1 Jewish state that has over a million Muslims, Arabs, Drews, Christians and of course Jews living in Israel.. There is every form of worship. Not so in most of the other Muslim and Arab countries. Gaza is one example amongst many.
Hamas invaded southern Israel villages and the young people’s concert the Nova Music Festival on October 7, 2023 not to perform a strategic military operation such as destroying military bases, equipment or soldiers but Hamas went into a civilian area with their go pro cameras to first torture and humiliate them in front of their husbands wife’s and kids and then kill these helpless civilians and get some form of satisfaction to viciously cause discomfort—emotional, psychological and physical harm to non-combatant unarmed civilians.
Part of the brutal attack included sexual masochism to causes distress and harm. Hamas terrorists murdered 378 Israelis and took 44 hostages from the Nova music festival on October 7, 2023, in the bloodiest single incident of Hamas’s invasion. Between the civilian villages and the concert there were 1250 Israeli and Americans killed and 250 + kidnapped.
Woman were tortured in front of their husbands and children then raped and then dismembered including pregnant woman who were eviscerated killing them and their unborn. Infants were microwaved in front of their mothers and fathers; toddlers were baked in the home ovens in front of their families. Old people were first humiliated, then tortured and then slaughtered like cattle in a meat plant preparing meat for market.
Amongst the victims who were either killed or kidnaped were Americans.
In contrast the IDF targets military operations and combatants including their headquarters, their munitions factories and storage facilities Where are these strategic military places located? Hamas puts them directly in, around and under civilian places.
Is Israel supposed to retreat or take fire and die or get maimed by enemy fire?
Hamases Modus operandi” (MO) is to place their headquarters, supplies, and munitions in civilian populations in Gaza in and under schools, hospitals, playgrounds, and other non-military locations to safe guard their army and operations.
This makes it difficult for the IDF to fight a war when their enemy is housed in civilian locations deliberately at the expense of the Palestinian civilians.
Hamas does not differentiate between civilians and soldiers they kill them all. Israel does try and protect civilians but when Hamas is operating in civilian buildings and locations what are they to do.
Should the IDF men and woman soldiers take fire and get killed or do they have an obligation to fight back and win the war for their country to proect their families and countrymen. Their task is to stay alive, protect and defend the borders of Israel.
They are fighting for their existence against genocide by Hamas It is Hamas (financed by Iran) who is committing genocide not Israel. Israel did not start the war and are trying to defend themselves with the least number of Palestinian civilian casualties.
Unlike Hamas, the IDF in order to minimize Palestinian civilian casualty’s sends out not thousands but millions of warnings to civilians in the form of emails, phone calls, flyers dropped from the sky, texts, including social networks and tells them the target area and also tells them where to go to be safe. They tell the civilians that their target is not them but Hamas.
No other country in the world warns their enemy’s. Hamas is just the opposite. They sneak into civilian areas and kill not the military but civilians not just to kill them but to humiliate them, torture them, disfigure and disembowel them, cut off their arms and gouge out their eyes.
Remember when they chant from the river to the sea, they mean to eradicate Jews and Isreal completely. This is the real genocide. Israel wants to live in peace with their Palestinian neighbor’s.
Over the decades Palestinians crossed the borders to Israel and worked in their factories, farms and homes side by side. Palestinians had good paying jobs and were treated like friends and employees.
Hamas does not feel the same way. Israel has been through 8 wars and has won them all. Why? Because they have no choice. Its life or genocide.
In 1948 The United Nations partitioned the land. One piece for the Jews and one piece for the Palestinians even though there was a Palestinian state called Jordan. The Palestinians turned it down. They wanted the whole thing.
Today while Israel has thrived , prospered and built a country in the desert, the Palestinians live in a desert of crumbling buildings, empty farms, destroyed factories with broken rocks and mortar. They have lost 75,000 people rather than live in a 2 state solution.
Palestinians are taught in school from day one to kill a Jew is a blessing and to die for this cause is a blessing. Allah will welcome you in heaven with 82 virgins. You will be a hero memorialized and your family will receive a pension for life.
Impressiionable children grow up believing that dying by killing Jews is a good thing. Hamas is teaching genocide, incoporates it and embraces it in the daily lives of Palestinians .
No such teachings or even hints of teaching the killing of Palestinians exist in Israel. What is desired is a two state solution living side by side in peace , harmony and sharing commerce with their Palesinian neigbors.
What country in war brings food and medical aid to their enemy? Israel! What country in war brings their wounded enemys to their hospitals to treat them and save their lives? Israel!
When Palesitinias were out of food and medicine it was Israel that joined the countries of the world to bring life saving supplies, food, medicine, and basic survival supplies to the people of Gaza. What enemy comforts their enemy? Israel.
Hamas does not do any of that but what they do do is hijack the convoys of trucks carrying supplies coming from all over the world including from Israel and steal most of it for themselves to sell and barter with for more guns and munitions to kill Jews.
Israel alone has delivered enough supplies to last each and every Palestinian one year. Hamas brings nothing to the peace table but death and humiliation to Jews as well as to their own people due to their hard core dictatorial terrorist governments policys.
The words two state solution does not exist with Hamas. They want one state a Palestinian state and in order to achieve that goal they have to kill evrey Jew and annialate Israel. “From the river to the sea” is their battle cry.
Hamas is a brutal undemocratic terrorist government financed by Iran. They not only terrorize Israelis and Jews but their own citizens in a country that is corrupt , waring, and deny their citizens freedom by terror.
When the entire idiology of Hamas is to elimninate Jews and Israel, if the Palestinians under the PLO under Yasser Arafat or the Palestinians under Hamas would not have had an agenda to eradicate and commit genocide against the Jews in Israel, they would have prospered just as Israel has .
80 years after Isreal accepted the United Nations partition, became a country survived, they from the ground up with hard work built farms, forests, orchards, villages, kibbutz, factories, irrigation systems, resorts, water purifications plants, military facilities and more in the dessert, developed some of the most advanced and high tech industries, has one of the highest graowth rates in the world, has more startup companies than any country in the world, has brought democracy and prosperity to all its citizens who are Jews, Christians, Arabs, Muslims, Drues, Greek and Russian orthodox religious and more including those who are secular.
All have the freedom to practice their reliions in churches, mosques, temples and synagogues, all in the land of Israel, the land of milk and honey, not just for Jews but all their citiczens while the Palestinians under poor leadership have taken their generations of people back in time literally to the stone age.
Since its independence in 1948, Israel has been involved in at least 10 major wars, numerous smaller conflicts and military operations and has won them all.
Why because they had to and because they swore since the Holocaust
“Never Again”.
But somehow they have thrived through all the wars and all their adversity surrounded by enemies and over 300 million Arabs and Muslims have become one of the strongest inovative econonies in the world, Israel has one of the best air forces some say second to the United States. Israel has one of the best military machines in the world. Isreal has one of the most democcratic countries in the world where every race, religion and ethniticy participate in government and have all basic freedioms including freedom of religion
The bible says the Jews are “the chosen people”. If that is so then why have they been persecuterd for thosands of years.
There life is family, faith, study, education, work and respect for the law. Their crime rates are amongst the lowest yet they are the number one target of hate crimes. More crimes are committed by non Jews, Blacks, Hispanics, illegal migrants and others but no one attacks them verbally or physically as much as they do to the Jews.
We ask why the Jews? Perhaps because Jews are peaceful, non-violent and therefore not feared to fight back or retaliate. Perhaps it is tht they excel in business, science and industy more than other groups
They receive between 25% to 30 % of all Noble prizes when they represent less than 2 percent of the world population.
These factors and perhaps jealousy is what drives anti-semitsim plus large funding from inside and outside the coutnry, hate speeches in Congress from the likes of Ilhan Omar, Rasheed Talib, the left wing woke groups, brain washing in colleges and Universitys by left wing radical professors, again some funded by anti-semitic sources, Jewish hate groups as well as taught in some homes that label Jews greedy, money hungry, terrorists, over agressive and have to much for their small numbers.
The Jews have suffered alot for their small numbers and after the holocaust they live by the words: “Never Again”
Today even with their small population the Jews and Israel have survived militarily, economically and have achieved more than most countries far beyong their small numbers of people..
