When the Nazis invaded Poland in 1939, the much-maligned Neville Chamberlain would not have thought of calling on both sides to lay down their arms, unlike the recent call from the US Secretary of State and the Australian Foreign Minister on both Israel and the Hamas terrorists concerning the Iranian surrogate’s unprovoked rocket attacks on Israel. .... The aggression against Israel and the possibility of a general war has been significantly encouraged by President Joe Biden’s predictable appeasement of the Wests’ enemies, including his revival of the Obama-Biden administration policy of not only unleashing but also subsidising massively the nuclear ambitions of the America-hating Iranian mullahs.
Sadly, Biden’s election was supported by the American mainstream media and most of the Australian commentariat, just as they are increasingly supporting Hamas.
It is not that Hamas ever hid its intentions. Article 13 of their Covenant declares that there is no solution ‘for the Palestinian problem except by Jihad’ and that international conferences are a ‘waste of time’ and ‘an exercise in futility’. Article 32 incorporates that notorious and evil fabrication beloved of the Nazis, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. It is no surprise that at the height of the current crisis, the senior Hamas official Fathi Hammad would tweet: ‘People of Jerusalem, we want you to cut off the heads of the Jews with knives. With your hand, cut their artery from here. A knife costs five shekels. Buy a knife, sharpen it, put it here and just cut off (their heads).’ ...
The Biden administration even dared to blame Israel for provoking the Hamas rocket attacks, with national security adviser Jake Sullivan expressing ‘serious concerns about planned evictions of Palestinians from their homes in Jerusalem’.
The truth is that the Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood was Jewish prior to the Jews’ expulsion in 1948 by invading Arab forces who illegally leased their homes to Arabs. In 1967, Israel prevailed against another invasion and liberated all Jerusalem with an Israeli court subsequently finding for the original owners’. It was then generously agreed that the Arab lessees could stay, provided they paid the legal owners a fair rent. They never did.
After decades of litigation, another court finally ruled that the defaulting tenants and squatters could be evicted. These legitimate evictions have been cynically used as a pretext for raining down rockets onto Israel.
This has not stopped Western elites from protesting and demonstrating. But blaming Israel or claiming that she is equally at fault only encourages terrorism as well as anti-semitic hate crimes.
