Once Again Hamas Provokes Violence; Israel Condemned
Dec 27, 2008 Political
For quite some time now Hamas has been launching rockets into Israel. The rockets, accompanied by mortars, were sometimes delivered at a rate of 100 per day. Now these were not rockets launched at a military target or at combatants, these were projectiles indiscriminately launched into Israel with no regard for where they would land or who they would injure or kill. Hamas gave little thought to the civilian casualties or to the innocent children who could be injured.
During this time Israel has warned Hamas that it would retaliate if the rocket attacks did not stop. The leaders in the Arab world urged restraint and urged Israel not to resort to violence. The thing they did not do was urge Hamas to stop launching rockets. Little or no pressure was exerted on Hamas to stop provoking Israel. Israel warned that a boiling point was being reached and that the time for talking had passed. Israel urged Hamas to stop or there would be hell to pay.
Today that hell broke loose as Israel launched attacks inside of Gaza and took out quite a few strongholds from where the rockets were launched. The Arab world is shocked, shocked I say, that Israel would attack. I wonder why these barbaric animals are shocked that Israel attacked after it said that it would? This reminds me of how that part of the world reacted when George Bush said we would soon exact revenge on those who knocked our buildings down and then he did it. How dare they keep their word?
Well, the usual suspects have lined up to condemn Israel. The Arab league is meeting while various mouthpieces in their backwards culture condemn the acts of the Zionists. Blah, blah. Members of the European Union are urging restraint while the Arabs and other Jew haters condemned Israel.
It is like this, the Arab world will call anything that Israel does wrong and will condemn it. None of these pencil necked terrorists condemned Hamas or told Hamas to stop launching rockets and now they are acting like someone stole their camel because they got smacked back. These animals only understand violence and they look at non violence as a sign of weakness. The rockets were launched into Israel and Israel did not respond so more rockets were launched.
Now of course, Israel has unleashed fury and the animals are crying. Oh, there were children and civilians who were injured. Spare me the tears. The cowards who pass as men in that part of the world routinely hide among the women and children and they have little regard for their lives any other time. They have no regard for the women and children who might get hurt by the rockets they launch into Israel. They only play to the sympathies of the world so that people will condemn Israel. The propaganda worked last time Israel defended itself.
I have been critical of Israel in the past but not because it attacked. I have been critical because it waits way too long and then it never completes the job and bows to international pressure. Israel needs to ignore all the calls for restraint and continue to bomb the living hell out of Gaza and Hamas. It needs to turn the place into a human wasteland where rubble and remains are all that is left. It needs to defend its nation with overwhelming strength that is hugely disproportionate to what was used against it. It is obvious that little forays into a mini war do not yield results so Israel needs to absolutely level the place and kill every living thing that presents opposition. Then it needs to dare any other nation of barbarians to mess with it.
Israel has a small piece of land and it is surrounded by enemies who want it exterminated. Israel is the only land of opportunity in the region where people of different backgrounds can live and worship without fear. There are mosques in Israel where Muslims may worship. You cannot say that anything similar takes place in surrounding nations. But Israel is constantly under attack by those who keep asking for a little more land. Leave here and there will be peace. There will be no peace until you leave there. Go here, go there, leave here, leave there, capitulate, give us what we want and there will be peace.
But there is never peace. The Arab world continues to push and push. It continues to work to destroy Israel and to wipe it off the map.
The United Nations condemns Israel for defending itself but takes little action to sanction those nations provoking Israel. Israel is always made out to be the bad guy and it is not right.
Israel has a right to defend itself as does any other nation on this planet. Everyone else needs to mind their business and let Israel work out its problems with its neighbors. If other Middle Eastern countries get involved then Israel will need to decide how to handle it and when (as well as who) to ask for help.
Until that time, people should let Israel take care of its own business. I for one would like to see Israel not stop until Hamas is a memory and nothing more.
