Hamas blodige terrorangreb i Israel lignede Rwanda, skriver Victor Davis Hanson, hvor terrorister går fra hus til hus for at slagte mennesker

Hamas did not act out of the ordinary, but in sync with its people. In truth, there is something so terribly wrong in Gaza that the United States should keep as far away as it can from such barbarity—and hope that it too feels the same about America and keeps to itself.

So again why did Hamas mount such a long-planned and multifaceted assault on Israeli towns, public buildings, soldiers, and civilians?

The invasion was not so much a surprise attack, in the conventional Pearl Harbor sense, as a carefully calibrated land, sea, and ground effort at mass killing and hostage taking. It was designed to execute noncombatants, grab Jews for bargaining leverage, and to shock Israelis through their pre-civilizational desecration of the bodies of the dead.

It targeted first a youth concert near the border, on the theory the cowardly killers could gain maximum media traction and Arab solidarity by sensationally butchering and kidnapping helpless adolescents. Will the murderers in the weeks ahead transfer their killing zeal to attacks on the IDF? They will soon have their long desired and ample opportunity to showcase to the world their bravado as they face real soldiers and not unarmed elderly and youth.

Iran står i et eller andet omfang bag Hamas angreb og har selvfølgelig en motivation i at underminere Abraham Aftalerne og holde Israel som en regional paria, skriver Hanson videre

Palestinians wanted to stop any rumored rapprochement between the Gulf monarchies—their traditional purse strings—and Israel, by forcing the issue of Arab solidarity in times of “war,” especially through waging a gruesome attack aimed at civilians and encompassing executions and hostage taking. They wished to force, for example, the Saudis to endorse their mutilation of corpses or else be to seen as sell-outs to the “Jews.”

Iran is the likely driving force in prompting the war. Its greatest fear is a Sunni Arab-Israel deal that would finally transcend the anti-Semitic and ethnic hatred that now resides most prominently in Palestine and Iran.

In addition, Arab forces only achieve success against Israel in surprise assaults during an Israel holiday. So the current attack was timed 50-years after the October 6, 1973 beginning of the Yom Kippur War. They struck during Simchat Torah, coming at the end of a weeklong Jewish celebration of Sukkot. And yet despite the iconic date, Hamas caught both the sophisticated intelligence networks of Israel, the United States, and the West in general completely unaware.

Det er Vesten selv, der har givet Hamas og Iran plads ved eftergivenhed og inkompetence, skriver Hanson videre

Let us also be candid, the Biden administration has contributed to the notion that Hamas was a legitimate Middle-East player. It fueled the perception that the U.S. was backing away from its traditional support for Israel—to the delight of Hamas—based on inexplicable policies.

Remember there is an iron law in the Middle East: anytime the U.S. distances itself from Israel, and gravitates to Iran, its violent enemies see that as a de facto greenlight to ratchet up their aggression. It is now a tenet of the base of the new woke Democratic Party, whether on campuses, among its Squad, in the media, or as championed by its identify politics caucuses, that Israel is an illegitimate state, while radical Palestinians are freedom fighters.

Do we remember that in February the ridiculous Secretary of State Blinken bragged that not only had the Biden administration resumed massive aid to the corrupt PLA, canceled by Trump, but also cumulatively had transferred $1 billion—even as Palestinian authorities and Abbas bragged that they would continue to pay bounties to the families of “martyrs” (i.e., those killed while conducting terrorists attacks against Israel)?

All such funds are fungible. So the more Biden’s people brag that the money goes to humanitarian purposes or has not yet arrived in Iranian accounts, the more these terrorist entities preemptively free up cash to mobilize for war.

So millions of American dollars went into Gaza, run by Hamas—despite the Biden administration’s efforts to keep mostly quiet the resumption of such inexplicable support.

In this regard, note the shameful State-Department (“U.S. Office of Palestinian Affairs”) website news release that was posted instantly after attack (since mysteriously taken down). It had ended with this quite embarrassing, morally equivalent admonition:

“We urged all sides to refrain from violence and retaliatory attacks. Terror and violence solve nothing.” “All sides?” “Refrain from retaliatory attacks?”

So Israel is to be the moral equivalent of terrorists executing civilians and brutalizing their corpses? And all this from the U.S. government? And what exactly is the “U.S. Office of Palestinian Affairs,” a megaphone for “normalizing” Hamas?

Det er selvfølgelig et åbent spørgsmål, hvorledes den israelske sikkerhed kunne være så elendig. Eller hvorfor beboerne i landsbyer så tæt ved grænsen ikke er bevæbnet som Trump-tilhængere. Folk, der deltog på den lille musikfestival, har været ganske venstreorienterede. Ifølge Edan Yago havde man sendt mange grænsevagter til Vestbredden, hvilket blev gjort værre af at af de resterende grænsevagter fik nogle lov til at fejre højtiden hjemme. Kombineret med angreb fra luften hen over grænsen i motoriserede ‘drager’, som de ivrigt havde øvet sig på. og søsiden, sammen med sabotage af kommunikationslinjer, lykkedes det Hamas at skabe tilstrækkelig forvirring til deres ugerninger.

Så muslimerne var glade. I New York var der groteske fejringer med nazitegn. Foran Det Hvide Hus, i Philadelphia,i Toronto med biler og til fods, San Diego, i Florida, i Seattle (Frasier has left the building), i London foran ambassaden, i Ottowa med kommunister ønskes der “Fra Floden Til Havet”, foran Sydneys Operahus råber de “Gas jøderne!”… Attituden er grotesk, hadet stikker dybt og er meget muslimsk. Times of Israel skriver

Several hundred pro-Palestinian demonstrators rallied in Times Square, waving Palestinian flags and chanting “Resistance is justified,” “Globalize the intifada,” and “Smash the settler Zionist state.”

“From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” they chanted.

Several dozen pro-Israel demonstrators, including many Israelis, gathered across the street. They sang Israel’s anthem, “Hatikvah,” bearing Israeli flags, and chanted “Shame” and “Murderers.”

Tensions ran high, with the Israeli group chanting “The people of Israel live” in Hebrew, and the pro-Palestinian group shouting back “free Palestine.” Some made mock crying gestures toward the Israelis to taunt them.

“Fra floden til havet” betyder at Israel skal udslettes og måden, hvorpå terroristerne gik fra hus til hus og myrdede, er en opvisning i, hvorledes palæstinenserne og deres sympatisører forestiller det skal ske. En journalist fra Al Jazeera udtrykte sin glæde over døde israelere, en CNN gæst mente, at det var et angreb på primært militære mål. En anden gæst på CNN sagde at der ville blive dræbt hundrede tusinder i Gaza ved Israels kommende gengældelse. Værten, Anderson Cooper, indskød ikke at det bare lyder dumt.

Over 30 Harvard student organizations made a joint statement the day of the assault, writing that Israel is “entirely responsible” for the “unfolding violence.”

Columbia University students from the groups Students for Justice in Palestine and Jewish Voice for Peace asserted that “the weight of responsibility for the war and casualties undeniably lies with the Israeli extremist government and other Western governments.” Likewise, Students for Justice in Palestine at Northwestern University affirmed in the aftermath of the attack that they “stand unwavering in our commitment to highlighting the profound injustices faced by the Palestinian people.”

All the statements used left-wing, anti-colonial language. Harvard  students described Israel as an “apartheid regime” that forced Palestinians into “colonial retaliation.” Columbia students characterized the Israelis as “extremist … colonial-settlers.” Northwestern University students stated that it is a “grievous miscarriage of justice to portray Palestinians as the aggressors in this occupation” and that it is “morally untenable to portray Israel as the victim.”
