This is not a time to speak about beauty and art.
October 7th, 2023, was the darkest day in the history of Israel. Hundreds of Israeli civilians, police officers, and soldiers were brutally murdered, raped, and kidnapped by the Hamas terrorist monsters. Six-month-old babies and 90-year-old holocaust survivors were kidnapped in Gaza, entire families were murdered in their homes, and hundreds of people celebrating a national holiday were brutally massacred. Words can’t do justice to describe the horror that went down there. This is why I urge you to go online and see pictures and videos—especially those scenes from Kibbutz Be'eri.
This is not a subject that I would typically cover in this blog. Indeed, many different small-scale “operations” happened in Israel that I didn’t cover. But this time, it’s different. This time, I must use my platform to make sure every one of my followers understands the level of brutality and horror that went down in my country and call on you to join me on the intellectual battlefield.
The facts are very simple: a group of over 1,000 terrorists invaded Israel and created the largest pogrom in the 21st century. This is not a territorial dispute over this or that piece of land. This is not a war between two different tribes or two different types of nationalistic ideologies. This is a war between a society that celebrates life and a society that celebrates death. This is a war between freedom and slavery. A war between Sharia law and individual rights.
This is why every person who views himself on the side of individual rights must publically voice his support for Israel. If this murderous nihilistic ideology is not crushed physically and intellectually, more massacres of this nature will come all over the world.
So, call out anyone who states any moral equivalencies, anyone who calls for the “cease of violence,” and especially anyone who states that Israel is attacking Gaza, and anyone who calls out Israel for killing civilians. Any death on the Hamas-Gaza side is in the hands of Hamas, who initiated this war by invading a free country. Don’t forget it.
There are many great resources for more information about this. I highly recommend ARI’s articles and videos. You can find them here.
On a personal note, I want to thank the many followers and subscribers who voiced their concerns for my well-being. I’m luckily in Europe right now (to where I flew a day before the war), so I’m safe from any trouble. My family in Israel is also fine.
I have new podcast and essay content that I have postponed indefinitely due to the situation. Sorry about that.
I think trying to convince any person with western values about the right of Israel to react to that slaughter is pointless, because any person with minimum amount of braincells can figure out who is "good" versus "bad".
All you need is have them presented with the raw facts of what happened on 7/10.
Regarding some people who immigrated to the west, it's like trying to wake someone who pretends to be asleep.
Absolutely! You said it well.
Israel forever, Palestine never!
