The main surprise about Israelis being attacked in Amsterdam is that they should be so naively unaware of the broad global outrage at the 43,000 deaths & vast destruction @Israel has wrought in #Gaza in its disproportionate response to the October 7 #Hamas atrocity. [An X post]
My rewrite.
The main surprise about Jews being attacked on Kristallnacht in 1938 is that they should be so naively unaware of the broad German outrage at the "stab in the back" by the Jews in the wake how the 1917 German parliamentary peace resolution, leading to vast destruction in Germany by the Jews.
The X post at top is anti-semitism, out and out. Blaming the Jews for thei attacks on them. Though I'm sure the writer would deny it, claiming it's just "criticism of Israel and its policies" -- too harsh, in their view, too "disproportionate".
But what is "disproportionate" in Israel's response? The 40+k number killed in Gaza (a figure baed on the Hamas "Ministry of Health", known for publishing exaggerated data) includes all Hamas terrorists killed, many hiding behind civilians. Like this: By most accounts, including the UN, at least half of those 40+k killed are Hamas fighters, the lowest number of civilians killed per combatant in the history of war.
If Israel really did want to carry out genocide in Gaza, it could have done so and could still do so. It has all the capability to wipe out the entire Gazan population. It does not do so. Instead, at considerable cost to its own soldiers, it warns civilians ahead of time when there is to be an attack on Hamas soldiers.
If Hamas had the capacity to kill all Jews, it would. It says so in its Charter. Which is specifically genocidal against the Jews. That it does not do so, is simply because they don't have the capacity.
Hence the saying: "If Palestinians laid down their arms, there would be peace; if Israel laid down its arms there would be genocide."
War is war. You don't fight it to be "proportionate". You fight it to win. You fight it to win, in this case, against a barbaric, totalitarian, medieval, misogynist, homophobic, sectarian, genocidal death cult.
But no, that's not good enough for the jew-haters. For them war doesn't mean war. It means giving up, capitulating, as soon as you're in front. And siding with the terrorists.
