The degenerate moral standards of the Left, which have become the dominant standards of our degenerate culture, are directly responsible for the barbarity presently parading through the streets of most Western Democracies. It is not the fact that there are barbarians among us that is disturbing, that’s just a reality of the human condition. What is outrageous is that they have been entitled and in fact incited by our “intellectuals” and their media minions, their behavior, even when truly disgusting, going relatively unscathed in our “tolerant” society.
Thus do we have mobs of B.L.M. and Antifa anarchists around the world engaged in utterly uncivilized behavior, endangering the property and well-being of thousands as the cops of their various countries, who would instantaneously arrest any “ordinary” criminal guilty of the same deeds, stand by and watch, paralyzed by the knowledge that the Left has declared them to be the very source of the problem.
And of course now they have been joined by hordes of ignorant Muslim fanatics unwilling to acknowledge the hatred that motivates them, unwilling to see Hamas as the racist/terrorist cult that it is, marauding through the cities of Canada, the U.S. and elsewhere calling for death to all Jews and the eradication of Israel itself.
I have just watched a video of rabid anti-Semites in N.Y.C. screaming obscenities as they stand in front of a restaurant apparently occupied by a number of Jews, spitting on the front window of the establishment like a pack of six year olds. On May 19 in Brooklyn, Muslim Ali Alaheri set fire to both a Jewish Synagogue and yeshiva while subsequently attacking a man wearing Hasidic garb. On Sat., May 22, there were various random assaults on Jews in the same Brooklyn neighborhood. But there has been little comment from the Governor of the State, the Mayor of the City, or indeed the mainstream media, all of them blinded by the same “progressive” bias.
Rashida Tlaib and the other members of the “squad” as well as a number of high profile Democrats, ignoring the fact that Hamas launched approximately 4,000 rockets towards Israeli targets, ludicrously support the narrative that the Palestinians are the innocent victims of this recent conflict. Interviewed on MSNBC a few days ago, Omar Barghouti, one of the founders of the BDS [Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions] movement, disingenuously pretended to support an utterly peaceful solution to what he calls the Jewish “apartheid occupation.” His terminology of course betrays his bias, the word “occupation” suggesting Jews have no right to be there while “apartheid” simplistically ignores the fact that approximately 20% of Israel’s population is of Arab extraction and legally entitled to membership on the Knesset. Moreover he is fully aware that his solution of one Nation from the West Bank to the Mediterranean would inevitably entail the complete eradication of a Jewish presence in the area.
I understand that the history of the conflict is complex, but the Jews, rather than being the interlopers they are typically declared to be, have lived in the disputed territory for thousands of years, indeed have peacefully co-existed with their Arab neighbors throughout much of that time. The only solution to the problem clearly entails a willingness to compromise rather than an unrelenting insistence on one’s “historical rights.” The Israelis, as outlined in the blog of May 18, have sought several such compromises over the years only to be summarily, repeatedly rebuffed by those clearly motivated by an implacable hatred. That various elected members of the U.S. government support the racist agenda of Hamas is despicable, indeed is an indication of just how seriously the beliefs and values of the Democratic West have been infected over the last 60 years by the ludicrous Leftist notion that the seeming losers in any conflict are always by that very fact innocent! It is a belief worthy of idiots! One can only hope that Rashida Tlaib, Ocasio-Cortez, etc. get annihilated the next time they are up for re-election, the American public perhaps having rediscovered the Principles that made their country great.
Are you aware, by the way, that thousands of Palestinians took to the streets in celebration of their “victory” after Israel agreed to the cease-fire? How does one deal with the terminally deluded? It is a riddle, sadly, that “conservatives” must deal with day after day.
While I may or may not devote an entire blog to the issue, I have before me evidence of a disturbingly high number of assaults recently committed by Black Americans on innocent White people, often children, who had done absolutely nothing to incite the assaults. I certainly don’t mean to imply such behavior to be more typical of Blacks than of Whites, but what is truly disgusting is that the simplistic narrative of the Left actively incites such barbarity. After all, if White people are all Racists, why not try to kill the young Caucasian in front of you waiting in line to pick up his lunch?
