Reminder: Israel was obeying the 'ceasefire' on October 7, its enemies were not! Western liberals have double standards when it comes to Israel
American Thinker ^ | 11/15/2023 | Ethel C. Fenig

On the 22nd and 23rd of Tishrei, 5784 according to the Jewish calendar, corresponding this year to October 7 and October 8, 2023 CE on the secular calendar, Jews around the world were celebrating the holiday of Simchat Torah, marking the annual completion of the reading of the Torah (The first part of the "Bible" in English) while starting again from the beginning.

In Israel itself, thousands of mostly young Israeli Jews, along with some Christians and Muslims and others from around the world, were joyously attending a music festival in the southern part of the tiny country when Total Evil in the form of citizens from neighboring Apartheid Gaza, which is 99% Muslim, (no Jews allowed) descended, brutally slaughtering over 1,100 unarmed attendees and residents of nearby Israeli small villages. Several hundred they didn't murder were violently taken captive, including babies and young children.

But...but...there was a "ceasefire"! Oh, that! Only Israelis, only Jews are supposed to obey mutually signed agreements! In 99% Muslim Gaza, the ruling Hamas set up military bases in hospitals. In schools. In residential apartment buildings. In office buildings, coexisting with reporters from the AP, the New York Times, the Washington Post, Reuters, who dutifully report the news, i.e., propaganda their Hamas rulers tell them. Or else.

Initially shocked, the Israelis fought back. While suffering painful losses they are succeeding in neutralizing Hamas. As a result, there are now Muslim refugees in 99% Muslim Gaza. And oh so suddenly there are shrieks calling for an Israeli "temporary ceasefire" so these displaced Gazan citizens, who never complained when their husbands, sons, and brothers joined Hamas in their posts in hospitals and schools and other "neutral" institutions, can safely escape to safe Gazan enclaves. Incidentally, neighboring Muslim-dominated Egypt doesn't want their Muslim neighbors, either.

And oh, not so by the way, this "ceasefire" is only applicable to Israel; apparently Gazans can continue their barbarous assault on unarmed Israelis with impunity.

Said the day after the massacre in israel, They need to move and move quick, before world opinion cements against them. They didn’t and now they are where they are.
Also said when world opinion turns they need to ignore it all and move swiftly to push them all into the other muslim countries. Crush the terrorists and crush them swiftly with an iron fist, and they didn’t, and now they are paralyzed.

Biden and the Democrats are OK with arming foreign countries but grabbing guns from Americans is an obsession w/ them. The same “Congress” that gleefully tramples 2A rights, is hell bent on supplying weapons to foreign countries.

AND THIS----Not content w/ the mega billions already in his pocket, Zelensky now says he wants US tax dollars to Ukraine “according to the Israeli model”......here’s what he means:

Congressional Research Service
US Foreign aid to Israel
60 page detailed report

https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/RL/RL33222/44

The concerned Israeli lobby made sure Congress is required by law to ensure that U.S. military aid in the Middle East region doesn’t damage Israel’s military superiority over its neighbors. That requirement enjoys broad bipartisan support and has served as a benchmark for ensuring Israel receives robust U.S. support.

Biden keeps gaslighting Americans about the “need” for American foreign aid tax dollars to Ukraine and Israel. Here’s why they DONT need it:

Since 1973, Israel has received more than $120 billion US tax dollars in MILITARY assistance alone, including “three special US aid” packages.
<>US billions for signing the Israel-Egypt peace treaty
<>US billions for Israel’s withdrawal from the Sinai.
<>US billions for redeployment of Israeli forces
<>rebuilding Israeli air bases in the Negev cost $5 US billions.

Besides weaponry, Israel also receives US economic and US humanitarian foreign aid, which supports broad economic development and sociopolitical stability and can include non-military support related to the country’s pressing security needs.

Military aid from US taxpayers has blanketed Israel over the years. They have more than enough resources, now, to nail Hamas and Hezbollah. Wealthy Israel has very low debt, and actually had a budget surplus this year, while the US is $33 trillion in debt, a debt which future generations are saddled with.

Double standards and the Left - If it weren’t for their double standards, they wouldn’t have any standards at all.

(I think it was Ronald Reagan who coined that saying, but I may be mistaken.)
