Have
you followed reports in the media regarding what has transpired in
Hamas-ruled Gaza since President Trump forced Israel to accept a much
flawed ceasefire “deal”?
Any
serious observer of the Middle East understands that Hamas, whose
charter calls for total obliteration of Israel and Jews everywhere,
never intended to live up to most of its end of the deal. For Hamas, it
is what Arabs call a “hudna,” a temporary cessation of fighting to
regroup, rearm, and live to fight another day to try to achieve
victory-especially over kafir infidels.
Question: What
is the name of the only nation in history which has been denied victory
after being repeatedly and viciously attacked, and instead has been
forced by others not to bring its genocidal enemies to justice?
Answer: The Jew of the Nations, Israel, of course.
After
the horrific invasion from Gaza on October 7th, 2023, which included
thousands of ordinary so-called "civilian" Arabs in addition to
thousands of Hamas Nukhba murderers who deliberately slaughtered the
equivalent of 40,000 Americans , engaging in such atrocities as
microwaving live Jewish infants, Israel was forced to act. It had
endured such attacks for decades-blown up buses, pizza parlors, Passover
Seders, etc.
October 7th is Israel’s version of 9/11, only worse, given the proportion of dead suffered by its population.
The resulting war has also taken its toll on civilian Gazan Arabs, as wars tend to do, but…
The
difference is that these people are killed because their heroes, whom
they freely elected twenty years ago with Jimmy “Apartheid Israel”
Carter overseeing the election, habitually use them as human shields.
It
is also becausd most still identify with Hamas, which therefore has no
trouble recruiting. Many alleged Arab “innocents” partook in the
atrocities which started this war, and posted their photos on the
internet.
They’ve ignored
millions of leaflets, phone calls, and other methods warning them to
move out of harm’s way. No other army, besides the IDF, has ever done
this to protect its existential enemies’s non-combatants.
There is no moral equivalency here. None…
Leading experts on urban warfare, such as West Point’s Major John Spencer, marvel at how hard Israel has gone to avoid harming its foes’s civilians.
The "Deal"
Trump’s
latest “deal,” forged in cooperation with Hamas-enabling Turkey &
Qatar, was forced upon a war weary Israel against its own better wisdom.
Israel, indigenous ancestral homeland of those many Arabs refer to as kilab yahud (Jew dogs), knows its enemies better than anyone else.
Yet
Donald Trump repeatedly acts as if it’s a beleaguered Israeli Prime
Minister who is unreasonable because he refuses to acknowledge Trump’s
alleged “better” comprehension of what’s actually happening in Gaza.
Trump
shamefully forced Prime Minister Netanyahu to eat crow, embarrassing
him before millions watching on television, because he did what America
did itself after being attacked on 9/11/2001.
A
bullying Trump forced Netanyahu to call Qatari leaders to apologize for
attacking Hamas masterminds of butchery on October 7th to whom they had
given refuge.
Qatar, with
Trump’s other good buddy, oppressor of Kurds, Assyrians, and
others-Turkey’s would be Sultan Erdogan-is a major enabler of Hamas and
other jihadis. It pours billions of dollars into universities to greatly
prejudice how subjects related to the Middle East are taught. I
witnessed this personally over the years.
Israel’s
earlier action in Qatar was a precision strike, not an attack against
Qatari sovereignty. It was the catalyst for the ceasefire. And regarding
the Qatar sovereignty issue, America didn’t ask permission of Pakistan,
Afghanistan, or Iraq when it went after Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda
after 9/11.
Sovereignty in Judea and Samaria
Furthermore,
if America is entitled to sovereignty over places like American Samoa,
Guam, the American Virgin Islands, and other places as well (not to
mention Texas, New Mexico, and California), how can Jews, with 4,000
years of sounding corroborated history, be denied it in at least a good
portion of it in Judea and Samaria?
See here if you question whose age-old ancestral homeland Israel truly is.
The Six Day War and its aftermath
Remember?
In the wake of cries of “itbach al-Yahud”-slaughter the Jews-and the
illegal blockade of Israel and, shelling of Jerusalem-Israel was forced
to preempt in June’67.
At
the end of this conflagration and much debate, the normally hostile UN
itself came up with a final accepted draft of UNSC Resolution 242 which
guaranteed that Israel would never have to return to its 9-15 mile wide,
zipper of a nation status again.
Meaningful
acquisition of at least some lands in Judea and Samaria and the Golan
(all part of the original 1920 Mandate of Palestine in the first
place-along with present day Gaza and Jordan) was to occur at last.
So, where does the American administration now come off making threats to Israel over this same sovereignty issue?
VP
JD Vance’s are especially troubling. If it was up to him, Israel would
have never attacked Iran, despite being blasted with powerful ballistic
missiles, and the Ayatollah’s race to develop nukes to obliterate Israel
(and the USA) once and for all. And he blatantly made these provocative
remarks during the very week of the American election, when some of us
were out there trying to gain more Jewish votes for a non-Democrat.
Back to square one?
Now
that Israel has had its collective arm twisted by the Trump team to
accept this non-ceasefire “ceasefire,” it’s back to square one, after
losing the equivalent of 40,000 American dead 19-25 year old soldiers,
older reservists, and a like number of civilians on 10/7.
As
has been noted many times, with billions of dollars in aid provided to
Gaza over the years, it could have become prosperous if its funds
weren’t devoted to constructing tunnels, enriching its leaders,
acquiring weapons, teaching Jew hatred, and terrorist acts aiming to
destroy its neighbor.
Tens
of thousands of rockets and even incendiary balloons were launched
against Israel over the past decades by Hamas and other Gazan terrorist
groups. Not to mention similar attacks blasting Israel in the north by
Hezbollah.
Gaza also has a
rich Jewish history dating back millennia, and was part of the original
1920 Mandate until Egypt illegally seized it in Israel’s War of
Independence in May 1948. It was never meant to be Judenrein.
For
the sake of others’s business deals with autocratic Arab
petro-potentates by its “best friends,” Israel, once again, after being
wantonly attacked, was forced by the new American leader, who was
supposed to be not like his predecessor, to cease and desist.
True,
the Trump deal got some living hostages back, a wonderful
accomplishment. And Trump accomplished some great things during his
first term in office-Jerusalem, Golan Heights, Iran oil revenues greatly
reduced, hostile UN agencies defunded, and so forth.
But,
in return, Israel was forced to release thousands of Arab butchers and
wannabes, who’ll live to slaughter Jews another day-like Yahya Sinwar,
who was released in a previous swap and then directed the Simchat Torah
massacre on October 7th, 2023… Nice “deal.”
When any army fights a war, gaining momentum is a top priority.
The
goal is to gain control of tempo and direction in conflict to rapidly
build upon successes to maintain a hoped-for unstoppable advantage.
Trump
forced Israel to sacrifice this hard won momentum, just as it was about
to conquer Gaza City, Hamas' last stronghold. Thata momentum was gained
at great cost by going from house to booby-trapped house, and has
already paid the price with the loss of two soldiers because the
predictable happened, and Hamas broke the “deal.”
Unlike
Gaza or Arabs under control of latter day Arafatian terrorists in suits
of “pay to slay (Jews)” Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah, who pocket billions and
spend funds on weapons and teaching youth to hate and murder “kilab
yahud” Jew dogs, Israel is a nation in the forefront of technology,
innovation, and assisting other countries, but has also been traumatized
because of having to continually fight a multi-front war.
No one in Israel wanted this tragedy.
Jews
cherish life, and too many Arabs idealize death and slaughter of
Islam’s kafir infidel enemies-especially Jews, half in Israel who fled
Arab/Muslim lands, the other side of the refugee coin no one hears about
because an Israel didn’t stick its brethren into squalid camps as Arabs
did with their own.
The entire situation was created due to a combined unprovoked Arab attack seventy seven years ago.
The inevitable has now happened.
Hamas
brazenly struts through Gaza stealing truckloads of aid, killing in
broad daylight its rivals and those they suspect cooperated with Israel.
New attempted arm shipments have been intercepted, with others probably
already having arrived in areas Trump forced Israel to cede.
It
didn’t take a Carl von Clausewitz to figure out that this “deal” was
extremely problematic, despite Trump, as usual, claiming that it was
fantastic because it was his team’s concoction.
The
latest news is that the President is threatening Hamas with “hell to
pay” if it doesn’t disarm and so forth. Don't hold your breath.
Hamas
is laughing because its Qatari and Islamist Turk enablers are best
buddies with the Trump Corporation and are business partners with his,
Steve Witkoff’s, Jared Kushner’s, and others business interests.
Follow the money...
So, after Israel was forced to lose its momentum, it will now have to be the one to carry out Trump’s threat.
Will
Israel have to sustain more casualties because it has lost the momentum
it so painfully gained after two years of booby trapped, house to house
fighting, and condemnation from Western hypocrites? None of them would
have put up with what Israel endured for so long before finally acting
to try to solve its existential crisis.
Any
nation faced with such a genocidal foe, whose charter calls for its
total destruction, has no option but to settle for nothing less than
absolute victory over its would be executioners, not a ceasefire which
will only be repeatedly broken.
America and the Allies wouldn’t settle for anything less from Imperial Japan and Nazi Germany.
How can a nation which can fit twice into America’s Lake Michigan settle for anything less?
