The manifestly unjust conduct of the peace conference concerning Russia’s atavistic and cynical aggression against Ukraine, which, reportedly includes the wrongdoing aggressor, Russia, but not including the victim, (the democratic Nation ) of Ukraine, seemed to conjure up analogous feelings of injustice, regarding certain perceptions of the recent Hamas-Isreali conflict. The acrid smoke and fire of the latter, by now, seems to have cleared up sufficiently to be enabled to reprise the subject objectively and analytically,
The following brief review of the relevant history should help consider the context of the matter:
After the Ottoman War, England was awarded the Middle East territory, of Palestine viz., “The British Mandate. When The League of Nations decided to establish a homeland for the World’s displaced Jewish people the territory of the British Mandate, was divided in two; one for the Palestinian Arabic people, the other for the refugee Jews. In 1948, the League issued the historic “Balfour Declaration,” recognizing a State of Isreal, relative to the part previously designated for the Jewish People. Within merely hours, a joint force of Arabic Nations militarily attacked the newly designated Jewish State, the attackers having been fully armed and trained by the British (“The Arab League.”), The untrained, poorly armed, besieged Isreal, somehow emerged victorious. However, later decades evinced many military attacks against the Hebrew Nation which were repelled. The scripture of Islam, unfortunately, contains a specific direction (“jihad”) to eradicate the Jews.
Israel decided, at some point, to withdraw from the Gaza Strip, thereafter exclusively occupied by the Palestinian People. It came to pass that the militant group, “Hamas,” internationally recognized by most non-Arabic Nations, as a “Terrorist Organization\ secured the governance of Gaza. It was this terrorist group, plus certain Palestinians that notoriously attacked Israel on October 7, 2023, on the Hebrew holiday of “Simchat Torah.”
Reports indicate that the attack was preceded by substantial rocket fire and that the attackers employed hand-held gliders, powered by trucks. in their surprise assault. Twenty-five hundred celebrating Israelis were killed and 251 were kidnapped; the latter, constituting all ages, from toddlers to old people. The kidnapped hostages were dragged, along with the retreating terrorists, to Hamas strongholds; well-supplied military tunnels tactically constructed under Gaza hospitals and other places of public assembly. This cynical tactic was part of a plan to cause Isreal’s predictable retributive action to be necessarily wreaked against such civilian targets thereby, pathologically, using the innocent: Palestinian public as “shields” and, importantly, incurring Universal criticism of Israel for evident cruelty in egregiously bombing hospitals and public place,
Unfortunately, these evilly-inspired tactics worked. The media reported outrage, as foreseen, on an international scale against Isreal for alleged inhumanity, such vehement outrage conspicuous on American College Campuses, which, in many instances included the vehement charge of “Genocide.”
The latter charge was sophomoric and as reported, encouraged by outside agitators. In fact, “Genocide,” is definitionally and legally applicable to an attempt to eradicate a people; as in the cases of Turkey-Armenia, Tutu v, Tutsi, Serbian and Croatian, and, perhaps thematically more relevant, Nazi Germany against the Jews. If the charge of genocide is to be rationally and empirically raised, the Hamas attack was irrefutably, motivated by the articulated desire to eradicate Israel and its Jewish population.
It is additionally notable that the violent attack by Hamas was not a”military” matter. The universally accepted, unwritten strictures of military warfare provide that civilian casualties, if possible, are to be avoided. The October 7th surprise attack by Hamas was, by factual contrast, directed against civilians; of every age, from babies to the elderly, engaged in a holiday celebration, and furthermore evinced, torture, rape, dismemberment, and a myriad of foul acts of every hateful nature.
It may be observed that “The Jews” have throughout history, been falsely accused of the commission of all manner of ubiquitous turpitude, poisoning the wells, for poor harvest of crops, for killing Christian babies for their blood, as an ingredient in Passover win, for various plagues and other outbreaks of human suffering, for seeking World Control by the conspiracy of prominent Jewish Bankers, and more recently, for ” raining rockets down on Earth (Marjorie Taylor Green).
Notwithstanding the empirical and historical, absurdity of any conceivable accusation that the post-holocaust, Jewish People are guilty of “Genocide,” it is our information that they do, affirmatively, confess full responsibility for Jonas Salk, Albert Einstein, Sigmund Freud, Leonard Berstein, bagels, and Lox, great corned beef, and the finest artesian chicken soup in the Solar System.
