Militia in Action : Israeli woman led a small team of neighbors to defend her kibbutz and neutralize Hamas terrorists
American Thinker ^ | 10/11/23 | Olivia Murray

Emerging details suggest that the recent attack against Israel didn’t just take months to plan, but years—Reuters even reported that the assault “followed two years of subterfuge” to lull Israel into a false sense of peace and safety—and after all that scheming, Hamas terrorists didn’t seek to destroy critical infrastructure, they didn’t attempt disrupt supply chains, they didn’t prioritize the obliteration of the “occupying” government’s buildings, and they didn’t go for strategic points like airfields and energy depots. They specifically targeted ordinary citizens, spreading absolute terror and brutality.

Many of these civilians were caught completely off guard, and the fallout has been exactly what you’d expect from a group of terrorists who don’t adhere to rules of war underpinned by Judeo-Christian morality—stories of beheaded babies, images of desecrated human bodies, videos of caged toddlers—but one woman, Inbal Rabin-Lieberman, took decisive early action, and led a team of neighbors to defend her kibbutz from the invaders; Nir Am became an “impenetrable fortress.”

From a New York Post item describing the events:

Inbar [sic] Lieberman, the security coordinator of Kibbutz Nir Am since December 2022, heard explosions early Saturday…

She realized that the sounds were different than those heard during the usual rocket attacks on the kibbutz — located near Sderot and a stone’s throw from the Gaza Strip.

So Lieberman rushed to open the armory, distributed guns to the 12-member security team and coordinated their decisive response amid the unfolding attack.

She placed her squad of kibbutzniks in strategic positions across the settlement and set up ambushes that caught the gunmen off guard and turned the tables on them during their mission to inflict mass casualties.

There are conflicting reports on how many jihadists Inbal and her team killed and wounded

There are conflicting reports on how many jihadists Inbal and her team killed and wounded (some say 25 terrorists were neutralized, some say only one or two), but Inbal’s decision “not to wait” meant that Nir Am became the sole kibbutz in the “entire surrounding area” that emerged from the violence largely unscathed.

Pin a medal on this woman. Then put her in charge of Kibbutz security across the entire country.

Pulling off this kind of operation costs money.

Where did Hamas get the money?

From all the old women in The United States who cried about oil drilling and how the Iranians really needed that money.

All they have done is awaken the silent majority, which is a sleeping giant, and filled hum with a terrible resolve.

With an enemy at the gates I find it insane that every man, woman, and child in Israel is not armed to the teeth. Of course I also feel that way about the citizens of Chicago or St. Louis

No- of course not- the Cowards went after unarmed women and children in a cowardly sneak attack- then turned aroudn and begged the UN to call for a ‘ceasefire’ because hamas got gored by the bull that they attacked!

We've all seen the video of the Hamas terrorists wandering around without a semblance of tactical order, or bunched up in the back of a pickup truck like the idiots they are. So, yeah, they had to go after the soft targets, mostly. People in their homes, a bunch of drunk/high young people at an all-night rave, or, in this case, a kibbutz. They for sure didn't count on this alert young lady.

From the NY Post story:

"She placed her squad of kibbutzniks in strategic positions across the settlement and set up ambushes that caught the gunmen off guard and turned the tables on them during their mission to inflict mass casualties."

Lessons to be learned here, for those paying attention.

See, this is why they don’t want *you* having a militia.

Imagine feeling like this poor woman and having that ice stick Andrea speaking to you.

This woman was far to civil to Mitchell.

Will Israelis have the guts to smack down their gun control politicians and organizations? Most of the dead Israelis would be alive if they are armed.

In fact Hamas most likely would not have attacked. Gin grabbers are murderers and need to be treated as such.

Inbal’s heroism is a story of righteous wrath and justice (personally, my favorite kind), but it also iterates the absolute necessity of firearms actually in the hands of good guys who will use them to administer justice, secure law and order, and protect the innocent. This is the militia in action. By the grace of God, Inbal’s intuition served her well, and her team made it to that armory on time, but a weapon is only useful for self-defense when the operator actually has the opportunity to use it. Firearms securely locked away adds an element of great risk, and when the barbarians ready to rape and behead could literally be at the gate, it is not a risk worth taking.

This is a shimmer of light in an otherwise dark couple of days.

It’s a misquotation of Proverbs 31:10.
