Israel's Hopeless Choices



Whatever the answer is, this isn't it.



We now have one more in an endless repetition of the same thing:  Arab forces launch a vicious, murderous sneak attack on Israel, and then Israel tries to decide how to react.  The Arab atrocities are already history, but Israel has not responded, as any country would, to a foreign attack.  So, right on cue, the voices start screaming out, "cease fire!...Collective punishment!" Imagine if people had demanded the same thing in 1945, when allied forces moved into Germany.  But of course, with the Jews, everything is different.  Pressure is mounted around the world, with the result that Arab terrorists get to attack Israel over and over again, with Israel being demonized for responding with anything other than rolling over and just taking it. 1400 innocent lives down the drain, and any response is portrayed as an inhuman abomination.


Here is an awful truth, but it is the truth nevertheless:  Hamas has managed to embed its military assets so thoroughly in the civilian infrastructure of Gaza that there is absolutely no way to strike back at Hamas without killing many civilians.  This situation is a massive war crime on the part of Hamas, but nobody seems to care about that- and all Hamas wants are the civilian deaths it creates, which its dupes around the world blame on Israel.  What's more, we all know the leaders do not even live in Gaza- they are all in their mansions in Qatar, etc, where Israel cannot strike at them without creating a truly horrible international crisis.  Hamas is like a grotesque cancer which has eaten its way so thoroughly through Gaza that there is no way to eliminate it without effectively killing the patient.  Israelis, and the rest of the world, for that matter, have never found a way to deal with this problem, without the support of the surrounding Arab governments, and we know that in fact they are doing the exact opposite- enabling Hamas to continue its monstrous behavior.


The true masters of these atrocities are the oil dictators in Saudi Arabia and Iran, and there is no way to induce them to behave in a civilized manner.  Instead, they have each fabricated versions of Islam which justify open barbarism, and enable outrages like that perpetrated by the Gaza government to exist unpunished.


What is the answer to this horror?  I don't have a clue, really, but I am just a guy online.  The current government of Israel was elected primarily on a promise to solve this problem, and they obviously don't have a clue either.  They can invade Gaza and cause untold damage, and it will not do one thing to dislodge Hamas, as long as it is supported by the Saudis and Iranians; all that it will accomplish is to provide more ammunition for the malignant supporters of Hamas to claim that it is the Israelis that are the murderous monsters, a claim that so many anti-Semites around the world are just waiting to amplify.  I sure wish someone would come up with an answer, because it has become really tedious to see people hailing subhuman murderers as sainted, oppressed freedom fighters.

Bob N, I assume your talking about Hamas, which happily slaughters babies and then gutlessly hides behind women and children.

Wingnut Wrapup

 Well, I haven't done one of these in a while, but I thought it might be fun to see what the wingnuts are "thinking" lately, so let's just dive in: And the big news: "Breaking! Trump Just Truthed He's "The Real Commander-In-Chief" Well, he said it.  It must be true.  He "truthed" it! You know it wouldn't take long for this sort of "reporting" to happen: "Maui Directed Energy Weapon Assault, Like 9/11, Paradise, CA., Malibu and Boulder Fires" Of course, it can't be the result of global warming.  It must be the deep state attacking Hawaii for some reason.  That makes much more sense.  Here's a small selection of headlines from the dozens and dozens of other articles about this alleged treachery: "New Patriot Underground: Hawaiian Wildfire: Possible DEW Attack" Maui: "An Orchestrated Apocalypse" "Maui Hawaii Has DUMBs Underground 8 to 10 Sex Trafficking Tunnels We Just Lasered Them Out!

It's Okay, Never Mind

The woman in this picture, equipped with the weapons and ammunition shown, was found outside a National guard base. She is apparently a big Glenn Beck fan, and believed that the base was a FEMA concentration camp. Think she's the only one out there? You just know this sort of thing is not going to end well.

Hamas

  Of ocurse I am going to take the opportunity to talk about the Hamas attack on Israel.   First, I'd like to talk about my background, or baggage, regarding the country.   I have lived in Israel, some years ago.   This was not for religious reasons; I spent several months there working on a movie.   During pre-production, weeks of location scouting and shooting the movie, I was all over the country, and spent a fair amount of time in the West Bank, where we also shot.   This included a lot of places that normal tourists would not see, including predominantly Arab areas such as East Jerusalem, the Arab quarter of the old city, Ramla and the southern part of Jaffa, which is predominantly Arab.   It also included heavily Orthodox areas like Mea Shearim.   I dealt with Israeli Arabs, Palestinians and Bedouins.     Here are a few things I believe I learned there:   First of all, the Palestinians I knew were perfectly normal people with the same interest in living a safe, secure
