Sometimes, Moral Clarity Isn't Difficult

By Ben Shapiro

 

This week, the world was reminded of the deep and abiding evil that has wormed its way to the center of Palestinian nationalistic culture by the news that the Bibas family — a mother, Shiri; a 4-year-old boy, Ariel; and his 9-month-old brother, Kfir — who had been kidnapped back to Gaza on Oct. 7 had in fact been murdered. Their bodies are to be returned to Israel this week; Hamas held the corpses hostage, and in return received the release of imprisoned Palestinian terrorists.

 

It is instructive to recall the circumstances of the Bibas family's kidnapping. They were not, in fact, kidnapped by identified members of Hamas. They were kidnapped by Palestinians in civilian dress, who joined Hamas for their murderous spree. For over a year, zero Palestinians apparently revealed the whereabouts of the Bibas family to the Israelis; zero worked to keep them safe or to restore them to liberty.

 

This fits with a pattern of civilian involvement in Palestinian terror activity: the reality is that the Palestinian terror apparatus is incestuously intertwined with the Palestinian civilian population. That is why released hostages tell of being held by civilian families in Gaza; why terrorists merge so easily into the surrounding civilian population; why the popularity of Palestinian terrorist groups remains sky-high among Palestinians generally. The hard division between terrorist and civilian so cherished by the West simply doesn't exist in practice in places like the Gaza Strip.

 

None of this is meant to alleviate the moral responsibility to attempt to distinguish between terror and civilian targets — a task Israel has accepted with more success than any country in the history of warfare, achieving a nearly 1:1 terrorist to civilian death ratio in the heavily urban Gaza Strip. But it is vital to recognize that the Palestinian nationalist cause is itself honeycombed with cancer: that it is rooted not in a desire for an independent state to exist side-by-side by Israel, as the mythical two-state solution has now suggested for decades, but in a desire for the complete extirpation of Jewish life in the Middle East.

 

Again, Palestinian civilians kidnapped and held babies. They then held their corpses hostage to achieve the release of murderous Palestinian terrorists. Oct. 7 was not a "jailbreak," an attempt to achieve freedom or political sovereignty; it was, simply put, a massacre, designed to kill as many Jews as possible and incite a multifront war that would destroy the State of Israel in toto — or, in the absence of such an achievement, to mobilize world support to isolate Israel for defending itself.

This is evil. If you side with those who deliberately kidnap babies and hold them for ransom, you are siding with evil. If you demand concessions to those who perform such atrocities, you are siding with evil. From college campuses to the streets of London, from the United Nations to the International Criminal Court, we can see just who sides with evil. And as Israel lays to rest the corpses of the Bibas family, we should be reminded that those who side with evil share its moral consequences.

Ceasefire over.

 

Time to eradicate the Hamas terrorists.

 

Move the civilian (shields)  and finish them.

What a surprise. Not to me. I posted the day after Assad was ousted these savages would be slaughtering the non-believers. It's as predictable as the Sabres missing the playoffs.

If this was such a serious issue why is Trump playing golf all the time? That's all he does aside from vomiting out hateful rhetoric for the trailer park crowd to lap up 

 

And you know he is stuffing his old nasty face with eggs all day

Quote

 

Less than two months after returning to the White House, Donald Trump has reportedly played golf on 13 of the 48 days he has been back in office — and the cost of those trips to Florida has been mounting.\

 

The outlet claims, citing costs from a 2019 Government Accountability Office report, that the president’s apparent insistence on spending his weekends (six out of seven so far) in Florida has now cost American taxpayers in excess of $18 million.

Trump has already answered more media questions in a month than Biden did in 4 years and is on the job all day, every day. He's not out playing golf all the time as you claim. Or napping between meetings. Or just not working. He's on the job at the office. 

I get it. You're not happy with what he's doing. You're not alone here. But you're only experiencing what a lot of us went through with Biden who worked about 10 hours a week. Hang in there. It's only give or take, another 46 months.

He's also ruined a great economy, too! Heck of a job for that disgusting scum bag!

Surprise! No, nobody—not a single person—should be surprised.

 

You let yourself believe the terrorist liars because you wanted to believe them.

Holy Week Massacre: 31 Catholics Murdered By Islamic Extremists in Nigeria

a9a9d7bb-66e8-4b3e-b175-570d41981d11-105

 

Christians across the globe are celebrating Easter and the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Holy Week, as it is known, is the most sacred time of the year for Christian faiths. It begins with the Last Supper and Jesus' arrest by the Romans on Holy Thursday, His Crucifixion on Good Friday, and His resurrection on Easter Sunday. The events of Holy Week, as told by the Gospel, are the cornerstone of all Christian faiths.

 

It is believed that Catholic communities in the Sankera region of Benue State, Nigeria, were attending Good Friday services when members of an extremist Islamic group known as the Fulani Ethic Militia (FEM) launched a coordinated attack across several counties in the region.

 

At least thirty-one Catholics were murdered in the attacks, but the death toll is expected to rise as many fled into the brush and were pursued by their attackers. It is feared that an unknown number of bodies have yet to be recovered.

Dozens killed as gunmen massacre tourists in Kashmir beauty spot

By Esha Mitra, Mukhtar Ahmad

 

Gunmen killed at least 26 people and injured a dozen others in the disputed Himalayan region of Jammu and Kashmir on Tuesday, a rare assault on tourists in an area fraught by decades of insurgency and opposition to India’s rule.

 

The devastating massacre targeted sightseers in a popular tourist destination in Pahalgam, in the mountainous Anantnag district, and is the region’s worst assault on civilians in years. Most of the 26 people killed are understood to be travelers.

 

While authorities investigate the attack, tensions are rising between India and its neighbor. Despite Pakistan denying that it had any role in the attack, India’s Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said in a Wednesday press conference that “cross-border linkages of the terrorist act” had been “brought out” during a special meeting of his country’s security cabinet.

The Indian Army corps responsible for military operations in the area of the attack said a search operation was underway to bring “the attackers to justice.” Shah, the home minister, arrived in the region on Tuesday and chaired a high-level security meeting, his office said.

 

India has long accused Pakistan of harboring Islamist militant groups that target Kashmir, something Islamabad denies. Attacks by militants have in the past led to a sharp escalation of tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbors, both of whom have rival claims to the Himalayan region. India conducted air strikes inside Pakistan in 2019 following an insurgent attack on Indian soldiers.
