Recently we had the terrible but, to a large extent, expected news that the savages of Gaza had murdered more of the Bibas family, a mother and her two children, who the Gazans had captured during the 7th October 2023 Pogrom. We’ve also had the usual disgraceful media circus that the Gazans put on when they either release hostages that they’ve taken, or release the bodies of those that they had slain. For the Gazans there is not any cruelty or horror that is disallowed to them when their opponents are Jews or Israelis or other non-Muslims.
I look back to October 2023 and recall how the pictures of Shiri Bibas and her children Ariel and baby Kfir that circulated around the world following the 7/10 Pogrom became icons that illustrated the depravity of Israel’s enemies. These pictures of an ordinary family taken into captivity by screaming savages acted a similar manner to how the story of Anne Frank became a form of cultural shorthand to describe just a small corner of the depravities of the Germans during WWII and prior to it. The pictures of the Bibas family being dragged off to captivity and violent death showed us what we are dealing with in the jihad perpetrated by the Gazans against Israel.
They showed us that the Israelis are facing an enemy that has no concept of seeing any humanity in its opponent and whose only desire is to kill as many Jews as possible. This enemy has arisen before and I believe that not just the Hamas and Islamic Jihad groups but likely a large proportion of the Gazans are today’s latest reincarnation of Amalek, the tribe that is said to have attacked the Israelites after the crossing of the Red Sea. The pervasiveness of hatreds held by the Gazans both for Israel, Jews and the wider non-Muslim world is such that even the Eternal One might have a harder job finding righteous Gazans than He did finding righteous people in Sodom and Gomorrah.
The very specifically Islamic hatreds and especially for Jews, that drove the Gazans to attack Israel on 7/10 are baked into this society now. Gaza is now a society so infused with Islam inspired hatreds that I believe that there can be no peace with Gazans. They’ve made their choices and chosen their path. Peace might sound like a nice idea but you can’t make peace with people who want you dead and especially when, as with so many of these ‘Palestinians’ that is their only driving desire. The ‘Palestinians’ don’t want a ‘two state solution’ they want a ‘final solution’.
Those who had a functioning moral compass asked the question as to who would be so depraved as to kidnap, hold and then murder a mother and her defenceless babies? The answer to anyone who is not brain addled by ideology is those who have jihad as their highest aim.
The conflict between the Israelis and the so called ‘Palestinians’ is not about land or political rights or the economy or even justice, it’s all about the Jihad. It’s all about the Islamic desire to kill Jews. Those who believe, because the Left or Muslims or the BBC tell them so, that peace can come if Israel moves out of this or that piece of land or hands over control to this or that ‘Palestinian’ group are allowing themselves to follow a monstrous lie. Even if the ‘international community’ had managed at some point in the past to create a ‘Palestine’ in the Gaza, Yehuda and Shomron areas that are currently under Israel control, it would not have brought peace. The Islamic desire and motivation to murder Jews would still be there and still be in operation. You cannot sensibly make peace with those whose only desire is to kill you. The only thing that a nation like Israel can practically do when faced with such a jihad is to contain it or destroy it and those who follow it. As the Talmud says sometimes it’s right and proper to recognise that here are people who are definitely coming to kill you and take that as justification for getting up a bit earlier and killing them first. Peace might be desirable but peace cannot be had with savages whose deity is murder.
There might be a temptation by many non-Jews in the West, and especially in Britain, to view the conflicts between the Israelis and their enemies as being far away conflicts of which we know little and care less. But we should care. These Jihadis will not stop at Jews, they never do. Just as they’ve done elsewhere in the world after the Jews, the jihadis have gone and will go after Christians, Zoroastrians, Hindus, Sikhs, Heterodox Muslims, free thinkers, gays, those who treat women as human and just about anyone who doesn’t adhere to the jihadis form of Islam. People should not consider themselves safe from the sort of jihad that afflicts Israel just because they live in Western Europe. This is because Jihad is already here and is seemingly supported by a significant minority of Muslims living in the West. Do not comfort yourself by thinking that it’s only Israeli babies who are at risk of being taken and murdered by jihadi savages, the conflict between jihad and civilisation is not something that is far away and far out of mind. It’s here and its now. Today it is the bodies of murdered Israeli Jewish children that these Islamic savages are parading before the world’s media, but tomorrow it could be your child’s body being so paraded by jihadis in London, Brussels, Paris, Berlin or Madrid.
There should be no more ‘negotiations’ with the savages of Gaza. These savages cannot be trusted to fairly deal on any matter least of all the release of hostages. My view is that the Israelis need to recognise that they are likely to get few living hostages back and that should give a green light to the Israelis to do what should have been done on October 8th 2023 which is to turn Gaza in to a sea of rubble and let the Gazans starve and fester in the hellhole of physical and moral filth that they’ve created for themselves.
May the Eternal One comfort the families of those who the savages of Gaza have killed or captured, may the memory of all those murdered by the Gazans in this current conflict be for a blessing and may Hashem avenge their blood.
