Israel doesn’t oppose peace. It opposes suicide. Every nation has the right (and the obligation) to neutralize a threat that has already murdered its civilians and promises to do it again.
This article is correct in all it says, but it does not mention the elephant in the room: From the point of view of the Palestinians and many other Arabs and Muslims around the world, this is a religious war. Hamas is fighting for Islam. Islamic Jihad (Islamic holy war) says it clearly. They all take seriously that it is the duty of Muslims to spread Islam around the world to all people, whether they want Islam or not. Also, Israel rests on land claimed at the eternal part of the Dar al-Islam, because Muslims once conquered and controlled it. Furthermore, Jews are only allowed to live, according to Islamic law, if they defer to Muslim supremacy, pay the jizya tax to keep their lives, and accept subordinate third-class dhimma status. To add insult to injury, the Israelis have repeatedly defeated the Arabs, who see themselves as great warriors. This stain on Arab honor can only be cleansed by an Arab defeat of the Israelis.
And with all the talk of any destruction of Israel, with attacks from Hamas, let’s point the finger at the enemy who is currently responsible for funding and promoting islamic jihad .. it’s the nation whose leaders are cosying up to British royalty, the nation that is promoting its status by investing in many prime organisations around the world.
Yes, it is evil Qatar .. duplicitous mendacious evil Qatar.
Evil Qatar funds Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood.
They should be in the crosshairs of the Israeli military, together with Iran’s nuclear intentions.
But evil Qatar is also buying off POTUS and the Americans .. the 747 gift is an outrage.
I SUGGEST THAT THE TERM PALESTINIAN IS NO LONGER LINGUISTICALLY ACCURATE, EXCEPT TO DEFINE PEOPLE OF ALL ETHNICITIRES WHO LIVED IN THE REGION DURING THE BRITISH OCCUPATION. USE OF THE TERM IS GIVING CREDIT TO THE GOAL OF ELIMINATION OF ISRAEL GD FORBID
Never was linguistically accurate because it is not historically or legally accurate, not that the nicities of law ever bothered the UN, politicians, the media, or academics.
Totally politically heretical to say so, but the Geneva convention on Genocide names four distinct classes of protected peoples: Religion, Ethnicity, Race, and Nationality. The so-called Palestinians do not meet the definition of any of these groups. They are in point of fact Judean, Samarian, and Gazan Arabs.
To quote Lewis Carroll:
“When I use a word,’ Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, ‘it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.’
’The question is,’ said Alice, ‘whether you can make words mean so many different things.’
’The question is,’ said Humpty Dumpty, ‘which is to be master — that’s all.”
It is somehow "Islamophobic" to call out Islam for it ideology and religious tenets of world wide control and submission or extermination of the infidels.
I take issue with one thing. This is not a war against Hamas. And it did not start on October 7 2023. This is a war that was declared by the Arab world and then when it came into existence in the 60's the Palestinian National Movement. Hamas is the most popular and effective representative of that movement. It is long past time for Israelis and all Zionists to recognize that the enemy is the people that calls itself Palestinian. Their entire national movement is built on the negation of Israel and the elimination of its people by whatever means is necessary.
Absolutely .. palestinianism is a calling which only germinated in the mid 60s, way after the West Bank was occupied by Jordan between 1948 and 1967, and it was started by an Egyptian named Arafat.
Just like the British partitioned India in 1948, Israel should have done the same when Judea and Samaria became part of Israel in 1967.
The fake notion of palestinianism took root by entering in to dialogue for the possibility of another arab state, from which traction of a two state solution has evolved, made stronger by Camp David & Oslo. Now we have much of the world blindly and naively believing a two state solution is possible.
People despite all that has happened still trudge out that Zionist apartheid Israel ...so called will be replaced by "Democratic Secular State of Palestine" for all.....a 70 year old canard of the far left.
👏👏👏 An outstanding and succinct article, Joshua! These are ten important facts every American needs to know! Israel doesn’t occupy Gaza, it pulled out in 2005. A plurality of Palestinian voters elected Hamas of their own free will in 2007. What did they do when they got power? Well first, they quickly exterminated their rivals in the Palestinian Authority. They threw them off rooftops and dragged them off the back of motorcycles. They then cancelled all future elections and instituted an authoritarian theocracy. They would go on to fire countless rockets at Israel.
Israel didn’t choose this war, Hamas did. They entered Israel on October 7th and committed horrific atrocities that will go down in the annals of history. Hamas invaded Southern Israel and committed mass murder and mass rape as well as looting and burning civilian homes and kidnapping hundreds. They were assisted by Islamic Jihad and civilian collaborators. Israel responded with overwhelming force as they should have. The “proportionality” response is a moot point. The side with the most dead is not the morally right one. Furthermore, the IDF boasts the lowest combatant to civilian killed ratio in human history. Hamas furthermore, we must remember is using the people of Gaza as human shields. They set up their bases in hospitals, schools, office buildings, etc.
They love to use dead Gazans to stoke the international community’s outrage against Israel. Israel does NOT purposely kill civilians. The press reports that “such and such number of Gazans was killed by the IDF.” with no context. Israel is not going too far nor doing this in the name of revenge. They are not committing genocide either. They are fighting to defend their country, wipe out Hamas, rescue the hostages, and liberate Gaza. They’ve been doing all they can to protect civilians and are not trying to wage a war on the people of Gaza and care about them.
The international community needs to refrain from lecturing Israel about “restraint.” Now is not the time for that. Now is the time to go all the way! Hamas must be eliminated and never able to pull off another October 7th ever again! They are the Nazis of our generation. They aren’t just Israel’s problem either but the problem of all humanity. Hamas despises Jews and Israel. But they’re not so crazy about the rest of us either. They see Israel as the little Satan while America and the West are the big Satan.
Don’t be so naive as to think Hamas wouldn’t do to women in the United States, Great Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Egypt, Guatemala, Chile, Cuba, Botswana, American Samoa, China, and Australia what they did to Israeli women on October 7th. Don’t think they wouldn’t love to loot and ransack homes in Dublin, New Delhi, Port Au Prince, Melbourne, Tokyo, Ho Chi Minh City, Buenos Aries, Berlin, and Cape Town too if they could get the chance. Remember, their goal isn’t a Palestinian state, it’s global domination.
They already ravaged half the world, from Morocco to India, and north to Sicily and Iberia. And it was just as ugly as 7 OCT. When they weren't invading, they were slave raiding.
Please remember this is a world wide Muslim religious war....Muslims kill millions of blacks in Africa.. Muslims kill Christians hundreds of thousands ...Muslim kill Jews....the BDS movement is Muslim military cells invading US colleges....Muslims have conquerrd and now control the UK
Norway Sweden Finland Belgium Spain Portugal France canada
Important as it is to say that most of the UK remains anti-Nazi, a part of the ‘Liberal Media’ here in the UK has been thoroughly penetrated by Nazi elements of The State. It is called ‘The Game’ and is well known in the media scene here. ‘The
Game’ was and is Deep-State-backed Antisemitism. The Nazi Party has been re-formed. Far-Right Spies here in London have been overheard saying ‘Six is Irving (the Nazi Holocaust Denier) and Irving is Six’. This has been monitored since 2013, and then verified by a group of us working in this area.
A truthful, yet powerful. commentary. My only gripe is with the title. These are not merely "misunderstandings", but the false beliefs of many due to Hamas propaganda (lies). Let's call a rose a rose, and a Hamas fighter a Muslim terrorist. As predicted, by Netanyahu many times, the jihad, genocide of Jews and non-believers has now become global.
Fight for Israel, fight for the world.
Thank you Joshua for your continuing efforts to spread the truth.
To say, as well, Hamas was and is in Alliance with senior members of the secret services here in London who are also members of the re-formed Nazi Party. This has been monitored and then verified since 2014 by a group of us in the UK. Our reports are with you.
If the UN SC resolution had passed the "immediate unconditional permanent ceasefire" would be another UN deranged and evil resolution....to heap opprobrium on Israel and save hamas as the ruling thug entity. No mention of oct 7th or the remaining livng and dead hostages being held criminally. Why oh why ....are so many....MANY...oblivious to the facts you outline here? Hating Jews is in fashion Never out of fashion really but now totally cool. Since no other conflict brings out massive demonstrations or has virtue signaling from the Oscars and Grammies stage. NOR this publicity obsessed swedish kid, now young woman, who is shilling for the video taped genocide of Oct. 7. How dare she! The JEwsih State carried out what nazi Germany wanted....a totally Judenrein entity. If I post on FB ..even just the photos of those now murdered.....few answer...very few of the few... Jews. So it' s Jews Alone and Israel Alone. See the tepid response to Jew Hate in Boulder and elsewhere. NO "we are all Jews" demonstrators from NAROPA and Univ. of Colorado. I know Boulder. Yes, I told my Israeli correspondent in TA that Yair Golan should hang his head in shame. She answered hes' okay but she gets my point. A former PM one miserable OLmert....not just any random far left Israeli ...regularly cited...."see even Israelis hate this genocide war" on TV news programs. Amanpour being for 30 years among the worst. To find consistent support I have to watch the folks on FOX. Yet, FOX is somehow evil too. I could say a lot more....you covered it all.

Thank you. Once again, clear, concise truths.
And yet, the decades-long war on truth by the “liberal” media continues.

Exactly right.
So many great points. If only the haters would pay attention.
Absolutely they don't care because if they did they would pay attention.
Excellent article!

Islam is the problem. They all believe in global domination and want to kill Jews, Christians and whoever else won’t bow to their demon god allah.
thank you
And let’s see how many non Jews read this succinct and accurate piece. Many of them will have something libel to say. The indoctrination is so deep.
