| WhatsApp this morning, from old chums, now full-on Hamas Luvvies |
What on earth?
“... west back of gaza.” Maybe means West Bank and Gaza, though West Bank not currently in the war.
Note: no “crying” for the dead Israeli children, deliberately targeted, tortured, raped and killed by Hamas. Nothing. No tears for them. Well done, ladies!
“Another nakba”. No it isn’t. And the first one, the first so-called “nakba” also wasn’t, as the name suggests, another holocaust. A Holocaust is a holocaust. Meaning the systematic killing of one people. That’s not what happened in 1948. And it’s not what’s happening today. Away with your moral equivalence, it doesn’t work here.
“and the world watches. and does nothing.” No it doesn’t. Paragons of morality and freedom like China, Russia and the Arab League are calling for a “ceasefire”. Biden has visited and called for “ceasefire”. Like that’s the first thing you do in a war. Lay down your arms.
The war was started by Hamas’ murderous attack -- against all international legal norms -- killing children, women, non-combatants and the elderly. And the war was formally declared by Israel. So they are at WAR. And they, the IDF, are warning people in Gaza to move to safety before they move in. To try to kill Hamas. And Hamas is stopping their own people from moving to safety. But who’s the villain? According to the jew-hating numbskulls above? The Jews of course.
This is a truly revolting WhatsApp from well-meaning but deluded Australians. Calling, essentially, for the victory of Hamas. And the death of Jews. I call them out: they are more than anti-semitic. Being on Hamas’ side, they are on the side of Jew killers. That’s it. Sorry to say it, but it is.
=============================
ADDED: please note that they above are in Egypt. Which has a border with Gaza and that border is closed. Has been since Gaza was handed back to the Palestinians by Israel in 2005.
Because Egypt don’t want Palestinian refugees in Egypt. Because they don’t want Hamas to come in with them. Because everything Hamas touches turns to dust. But no apparent realisation of that from the numbskulls above.
And neither do the other neighbouring states: Lebanon, Jordan, Syria. None of them want to take Palestinian refugees.
Also: note the the major demos happening around the world, the “pro-Palestinian” demos, which are actually pro-Hamas, are all in western countries, New York, London, Sydney, Paris. Not a single one in a Muslim state. Consider that.
ADDED (ii): I’ve done that part of the world in a classic car, a 1962 Mustang, in 2011. Blog here. I’m thinking: should I suggest to these two that they could make the trip to Rafeh, on the border of Egypt with Gaza. It’s 10km, so not narrow. And yet closed. They could ask why is it closed? Why has it been closed since Gaza became Hamas? And then ask Gaza people: why don’t you let your own people come to safety in the South of Gaza?
