OK so I\u2019m disturbed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Read quite a few articles about the \u2026 \u201cRandom. Acts. Perpetrated. Ex delicto<\/em>\u201d by Hamas, and boy oh boy the pro-Palestinians are interestingly quiet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n First responders\/boots on the ground are reporting mass instances of women \u2026 naked and torn from the waist down, children, teens, the elderly \u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n … pelvises broken from the violence of the assault \u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n … the insensate body of a young woman (Shani Louk?) splayed in the back of a pickup truck as armed men celebrate \u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n … the early video of a woman handcuffed with blood soaking the seat of her pants while being led into a waiting vehicle filled with men.\u00a0 Don\u2019t want to assume, but somehow I don\u2019t think she was on her period, and I also don\u2019t think she wanted to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The difference between terrorism and war?\u00a0 War has rules, and a certain logic to the barbarity.\u00a0 Terrorism?\u00a0 Not so much.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n An eyewitness recounts Hamas cutting off a woman\u2019s living breast and throwing it in the street.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n During the Arab Spring some head discussed the reasons for its longevity, why the uprising spread so far and lasted so long \u2026 overwhelming numbers of disenfranchised, underemployed young men between the ages of 18 and 30 with inadequate access to women. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Makes sense. Ol\u2019 lady five-fingers can only do so much for so long. <\/p>\n\n\n\n AND, and, there\u2019s rumors that the Catholic Church isn\u2019t the only institution with religious overtones that victimize(s)d children.\u00a0 In the tradition of another faith, young boys are routinely gifted by their families to be \u201ceducated\u201d by older, scholarly men, who supposedly take vows of chastity (and we all know how well that works).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n So when legions of young men, underemployed, underused, overzealous and riding high waves of testosterone without limitation or restraint with unfettered access to females branded as “enemy” and encouraged by their masters to do as thy whilst, the outcome and repercussions are, unfortunately, very predictable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Umm, Dave?\u00a0 Where\u2019s that righteous outrage at their actions?\u00a0 Where\u2019s that platform of condemnation?\u00a0 The world is castigating Israel for the high civilian deaths without acknowledging that Hamas uses women, children and the elderly as human shields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Conversely, and this could just be media blackout but methinks not, there are no reports of IDF engaged in similar \u2026 \u201cRandom.\u00a0 Acts.\u00a0 Perpetrated.\u00a0 Ex delicto<\/em>\u201d \u2026 as they fight to destroy (but will fail \u2026 like cutting off a single head of the hydra) Hamas and its leadership.\u00a0 No \/ the big complaint is that Israel is not doing more to avoid civilian casualties \u2026 but whose fault is that?\u00a0 The ones attacked and fighting back, or the instigators of war?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n I get that Israel has been practicing apartheid against the Palestinian people for almost a century, I get that, and that\u2019s all around all the way wrong BUT but her wrong does not make them right. The more radical Islamic nations (is there any other kind? dunno) have vowed to wipe Israel off the face of the earth, so she\u2019s gotta do, what she\u2019s gotta do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The world was relatively unbothered by the ongoing living\/social\/economic\/political conditions of\/in Gaza \u2026 now that there\u2019s payback\/blowup, commence the wringing of the hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The world owes Gaza a debt of compassion, but Israel is not required to pay it.\u00a0 On this one? I stand with Israel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I say:\u00a0 Keep fighting, clean of the blood of the innocents, and flooding the tunnels with seawater seems like a really, really good idea.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n Almost biblical, that.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n If only they could use the Red Sea.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" OK so I\u2019m disturbed.
