Summary

The Deception of Hamas

Hamas took advantage of the West’s false sense of security and perpetrated the recent massacre. They strategically pretended to focus on governing Gaza while secretly preparing for the attack. By deliberately putting civilians in harm’s way and using all the money flowing into Gaza for the purpose of murdering Jews, Hamas revealed that they do not care about the people in Gaza. With state sponsorship from Iran, Hezbollah, and Turkey, Hamas’s highest aspiration is death.

The Bias in Media Coverage

The West’s latent Jew hatred is evident in their criticism of Israel’s actions, which is not seen in other countries after being attacked. The potential spy allegations against Robert Malley, a former Biden negotiator with Iran, raise concerns about his permissive stance towards Hamas and Hezbollah. The left’s defense and support of Hamas, exemplified by Judith Butler, showcases the myth that our enemies care about their own people. The international community holds Israel responsible for the safety of civilians in Gaza, despite Hamas’ use of human shields and hiding weapons in civilian areas.

The Political Response

Leftist politicians like Bernie Sanders are increasingly aligning themselves with anti-Israel sentiments. The US political response to the conflict has been divided, with the Biden administration’s rhetoric leaning towards supporting Israel’s right to defend itself. Meanwhile, Republicans are facing challenges in choosing a House Speaker, with Steve Scalise narrowly winning over Jim Jordan.

Conclusion

The recent conflict between Israel and Hamas has revealed the deceptive tactics employed by Hamas, the biased media coverage surrounding the conflict, and the political response from various factions. It is crucial to recognize the true nature of Hamas and the importance of accurate reporting to understand the complexities of the situation. Additionally, the need for strong and principled politicians who prioritize the safety of their own citizens and stand against anti-Semitism is evident. As the conflict continues, it is essential to focus on reducing humanitarian suffering and protecting innocent people on both sides.
