An immodest proposal
Putting virtue-signaling into action
Oh, the bien pensant (right-thinking) people of the world have their knickers in a twist today! They are outraged - outraged, I say! How dare those uppity Jews defend themselves!
It’s true that over 1200 Israelis died by getting in the way of Hamas bullets, and that over 200 Israelis were kidnapped by Hamas to show off the latter’s immense hospitality. As the human resources department at my college said in addressing the issue last October, the situation demonstrates “deeply layered nuanced complexity”.
But Saturday - those annoying Jews again reminded the world why they are so annoying. They insisted on rescuing their kidnapped hostages. How dare they!
It is difficult for the intellectuals to defend kidnapping and rape, so they have come up with several responses.
Kidnapping, rape, torture, and murder are all justified by “occupation”! Oh, Gaza hasn’t been “occupied” since 2005…
It is wrong for Israel to fight back, because of Jews’ intrinsic evil; they deserve what’s coming to them.
It might be desirable to rescue kidnap victims, but Israel killed way too many Hamas supporters.
BBC: Israel should have announced to the kidnappers their forthcoming raid to rescue the hostages.
One very popular tweet by a Hamas sympathizer in the West advertised the shocking statistics: 4 hostages, 200 dead “Palestinians”. An Israel supporter replied: 100 freed hostages, 0 dead “Palestinians”.
It is all in Hamas’s control now. If they released all the remaining hostages, there would be significant pressure on Israel to stop the war. That Hamas refuses to do so shows that jihad and martyrdom remain their highest priority.
Nitzakhon was good enough to share his latest blog:

He also provided a gruesome 55 second video showing a pregnant Israeli woman. Her mouth was covered with tape to prevent her from screaming while her baby was being cut out of her stomach.

I want to force every anti-Semite, every anti-Zionist, every college and university student and faculty and staff and administrator, to watch that video, to know what evil is.
Yet, after the rescue raid, there was criticism from the UN and the EU - of course. Israel has been accused gleefully of every abomination actually committed by its enemies. This has been a long-time tactic of the left and of the far right.
Thus, my immodest proposal. I invite Francesca Albanese and her fellow lowlifes to go to Gaza to take the place of the remaining 100+ Israeli hostages. What happens to the Western leftists (and a small number of rightists) afterwards is none of my concern.
God has been enforcing the terms of Genesis 12:3 for around 4000 years, and He isn’t going to stop now.
Astute comments Surak, I couldn’t help myself but I read it in Gaad Saad’s voice it mirrors his style.
