The Moral Duty to Destroy Hamas
WSJ ^ | 11 Oct 2023 | Walter E Block and Alan G Futterman

Posted on 10/12/2023 7:17:16 PM PDT by Rummyfan

Israel is entitled to do whatever it takes to uproot this evil, depraved culture that resides next to it.

A mob of Islamist Arabs incited by Jew-hatred entered the town and killed as many Jews as they could find. They went door to door, broke into the homes of their victims, and slaughtered innocent men, women and children. These gangs raped, mutilated and tortured them while screaming “Kill the Jews!”

That was 94 years ago, on Saturday, Aug. 24, 1929, in Hebron. The picture is essentially the same, only that then the Arab riots that included this massacre ended with 133 Jews murdered. This time, it is several times as many, and we don’t know the final figure.

...

The same society that pays wages to mass murderers and celebrates on the streets with sweets and shootings when Jews get killed. It is the culture that creates the types of monsters capable of the evil they themselves proudly show to the world through social media.

“From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free!” chant the useful idiots at elite institutions and parades in the West. Who are these people? Atheists who support theocratic lunatics, democrats who endorse medieval tyrants, feminists who defend misogynists who parade with the desecrated corpses of women, gays who defend maniacs who would joyfully hang them or toss them off the roof of a tall building. They talk of a secular, democratic and socialist Palestine. As George Orwell observed: “One has to belong to the intelligentsia to believe things like that: no ordinary man could be such a fool.” But the world has now seen what “from the river to the sea” actually means. It is nothing less than a remake of the Nazi Einsatzgruppen.

Goes back to 911.

We defeated Taliban government in days.

But then left it there. Did not eradicate them like the Nazis after the war.

Declare War, hunt down and kill every single member of Islamic Hamas. Let that serve as warming to other members of Islamic Cult, stand down, end violence, else also die.

Not every single one.

Do like General Pershing in the Philippines and let a couple escape to spread the tale of mass graves shared with pig carcasses.

That’s the problem.

“Honor cultures” only respect true “manly men” who are unafraid of using raw, brute force.

Consider the current “’resident”....need I say more?

The satanic “religion” of ISLAM is precisely the root of the problem.

OK, here’s recent: remarks by George W Bush, one of the stupidest and most morally bankrupt presidents we have ever suffered through. Over and over again, he tells us that we “understand” things that are absolutely FALSE. And the world continues to pay the price for “misunderstanding” and “misunderestimating” the abject satanic EVIL that is Islam. Here you go:

****************************

“All of us here today understand this: We do not fight Islam, we fight against evil.”
Remarks by President George W. Bush to the Warsaw Conference on Combating Terrorism
November 6, 2001

“I have assured His Majesty that our war is against evil, not against Islam. There are thousands of Muslims who proudly call themselves Americans, and they know what I know — that the Muslim faith is based upon peace and love and compassion. The exact opposite of the teachings of the al Qaeda organization, which is based upon evil and hate and destruction.”
Remarks by President George W. Bush and His Majesty King Abdullah of Jordan
The Oval Office, Washington, D.C.
September 28, 2001

“Americans understand we fight not a religion; ours is not a campaign against the Muslim faith. Ours is a campaign against evil.”
President George W. Bush Remarks by the President to Airline Employees
O’Hare International Airport, Chicago, Illinois
September 27, 2001

“The terrorists are traitors to their own faith, trying, in effect, to hijack Islam itself. The enemy of America is not our many Muslim friends; it is not our many Arab friends. Our enemy is a radical network of terrorists, and every government that supports them.”

President George W. Bush’s Address to a Joint Session of Congress and the American People
United States Capitol, Washington, D.C.
September 20, 2001

“I’ve made it clear, Madam President, that the war against terrorism is not a war against Muslims, nor is it a war against Arabs. It’s a war against evil people who conduct crimes against innocent people.”
Remarks by President George W. Bush and President Megawati of Indonesia
The Oval Office, Washington, D.C.
September 19, 2001

“The face of terror is not the true faith of Islam. That’s not what Islam is all about. Islam is peace. These terrorists don’t represent peace. They represent evil and war.”
Remarks by the President at Islamic Center of Washington, D.C.
Washington, D.C.
September 17, 2001

The fathers and grandfathers of the greatest generation seemed to have a solution. Now that imperfect, but hard earned wisdom is not recognized to exist. I found that tragic and incompressible, so I sent the below letter to papers and commentators. Of course it won’t be published.

From: Retain Mike Sent: Wednesday, October 11, 2023 3:08 PM Subject: Terrorists Cannot Be Managed

Of many reports about Hamas one said, “The main lesson for Israel from the hideous Hamas attacks suffered over the weekend is a simple one: Terrorists can’t be managed.”

At the end of WW II, the issue of terrorism was considered. The Geneva Conventions decided these feral psychopaths never met criteria of civility requiring protection. They didn’t meet definitions for militia, armed force, or volunteer corps, but were so dissociated from country or culture, so committed to butchery that they best matched Webster’s definition for a virus. They were not insurgents or freedom fighters, and when captured, certainly not prisoners of war. These killers were not members of organized resistance movements carrying arms openly. They carried no distinctive identifier. The Geneva Conventions found no category for defining terrorists and left them in outer darkness and beyond the pale.

The Geneva Convention writers held powerful positions throughout the darkest times of our world. Their words synthesized a brutal, durable morality earned during the bloody deluges of the 20th century. They intended to isolate terrorist forces and allow destruction with any overwhelming furies needed to crush their abominations.

There is much misplaced anxiety for the loss of civilian lives in Gaza. The obvious reading of Articles 28 and 29 of the Fourth Geneva Convention says Hamas is responsible for any civilian deaths in the areas they occupy. Those civilians qualify as Protected Persons within the terrorist’s physical control and cannot be used to render certain points and areas immune from military operations.

Excellent points.

And when terrorists (and their state sponsors) realize that civilized nations are willing to negotiate and pay steeply for the release of prisoners they construe that—correctly—as a signal that they can do more of the same, not only with impunity but with great pecuniary gain.

FJB!

Yep, islam is another in a series of fiery ordeals that our adversary has wrought since Peter wrote those inspired words. islam is a particularly successful, persistent one. satan, creature of pride that he is, must be proud of his manipulation.

A dear friend, an Antiochian Orthodox Christian Bishop who is a second-generation Syrian immigrant said this about ISIS/Hamas/Hezabollah:

“These people do not worship God.
These people do not worship Allah.
These people worship VIOLENCE”

This is the irony. Putin tore Chechnya apart, and now they are his most loyal guys.

I guess it is like Bin Laden said about the strong horse...
