War deluge from Al Aqsa
Saturday, October 7, 2023. At 06:29, Palestinian Hamas terrorists open 28 breaches in the security fence separating Israel from Gaza. After pounding nearby villages with nearly 8,000 rockets, on foot, on motorcycles, in cars, boats and even motorized paragliders, Hamas fighters rush into Israel to conquer the country. The aim of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood is to liberate Palestine from the Jews. Hamas president Ismail Haniyeh, from his luxurious residence in Qatar, has repeatedly urged West Bank Arabs to take up arms and unite with Hamas terrorists. It was the intervention of Israel’s Tsahal army that prevented them from achieving their goal.
Hundreds of young people gathered at a concert were surrounded and executed by Hamas fighters. Those who tried to flee in their vehicles were riddled with bullets and their cars set on fire. Unimaginable barbarity swept through southern Israel.
Inhabitants of villages near the Gaza border awoke to sirens, gunfire and hooded Palestinian terrorists. More than 1,350 people were murdered in the first hours of the war. The barbarity of the fighters was unprecedented: women, men, children and the elderly were murdered, some of them dismembered, and girls were raped and executed. To erase their despicable actions, the terrorists burned many of their victims and set fire to their homes.
Ignominiously, civilian children, women, old people and men are brutally forced into exile in Gaza. That combatants should attack civilians is already contrary to the laws of war, but hostage-taking is condemned by the International Conventions on Human Rights.
The country is at war, declares Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. It will take around ten hours to stop the Hamas offensive, and 48 hours to eliminate the majority of infiltrating terrorists.
Thousands of Israelis have seen hell. Those who returned will be traumatized for life by the interminable hours, during which their existence was suspended between life and death. The long wait for the army to intervene was unbearable. Over 1,350 victims of an orgy of violence, a pogrom. Women raped, men emasculated, heads smashed, babies decapitated, mothers burned alive with their children, hostages finally exposed to the vindictiveness of jubilant Palestinian crowds in Gaza. There is an inhumanity in this destructive frenzy, in this nihilistic madness, in this enjoyment of killing, perpetrated in the name of Allah, to which we must refrain from making excuses!
Despite the bombardment of Hamas targets in Gaza, missile fire continues unabated. For a “ceasefire”, Israel demands the release of all 240 hostages and the surrender of Hamas.
Anti-Semitic remarks
The joy expressed by pro-Palestinians around the world is perplexing. As soon as the first news of the conflict broke, pro-Palestinian crowds in many cities around the world began chanting anti-Semitic slogans.
On 07.10.2023, a crowd of 10,000 demonstrators from Yemen stood in solidarity with what was happening in Gaza. As a reminder, the conflict in Yemen between Saudi Arabia and Iran has claimed more than 400,000 lives, and caused widespread famine throughout the country, with 2.3 million children suffering from malnutrition.
October 20, 2023, more than 3,000 people shout Israel assassin and Free Palestine in the city of Lausanne. 3000 people in agreement with the barbaric acts of Hamas? Free Palestine is Khaled Mechaal’s call from Gaza on 19.12.2012: We will destroy Israel, and this land will belong to us.
This despicable Hamas massacre is a demonstration of hatred against Israel. Through the media, Hamas and the PLO immediately position themselves as victims, suffering the same attacks from the Jews. Arab countries believe the misinformation and put an end to the Abraham Accords.
The Hamas charter says: Israel will exist until Islam annihilates it. Article 31 states: The Islamic Resistance Movement is a humanist movement. It is concerned with human rights. It is guided by Islamic tolerance when dealing with the followers of other religions. It opposes them only when they are hostile. Under the banner of Islam, the followers of three religions – Islam, Christianity and Judaism – can coexist peacefully. But this peace is only possible under the banner of Islam.
The barbarity of 7.10.2023 is the result!
Fierce fighting between Hamas fighters and Tsahal is taking place in the Gaza Strip. Every day, missiles are fired from Gaza towards Israel. The population must continually protect itself in shelters.
On social networks, there is a war of information and disinformation. Just one example: a rocket fired from the Gaza cemetery crashed into the Al-Shifa hospital. According to Hamas, more than 500 people were killed as a result of Israeli army fire. Four days later, the death toll was 47, caused by a Hamas missile failure.183
Cease fire
November 23, the fighting stopped for a few days. A hundred Israeli hostages are exchanged for 300 Palestinians, prisoners who have not killed any Israelis. The negotiators’ demands put the Jews’ nerves to the test: the cynical bargaining of children, women and elderly hostages for the freedom of violent criminals.
It is understandable that Israel should fight and search by all means for its captive citizens, unlawfully detained by Palestinian terrorists. The civilian population of Gaza is paying heavily for its support of the terrorists. How many women weep for their children, torn from their affection by the death that lurks in every street. Are the Gazans innocent? Could mothers have protected their children from Islamist indoctrination?
Hamas’ obstinacy in refusing to release the Jewish hostages is prolonging the suffering of Gaza’s civilian population. Clashes between IDF soldiers and Hamas fighters are causing casualties.
Civilians are trapped, unable to escape to Egypt. No country is willing to welcome the Palestinians, not even the desert of the Sinai Peninsula. And Israel is accused of the worst violence.
Christmas in Bethlehem
December 25, no Christmas celebration in Bethlehem, the village where Emanuel the King of Israel was born two thousand years ago. An act of solidarity with the 134 Israeli hostages still held by Hamas terrorists. No, wrong, it’s in solidarity with the Palestinians in Gaza! 184
West Bank Christians stand in solidarity with the Palestinians who carried out the October 7 massacre. How can we understand such a situation?
Arise judge of the earth! Render to every man according to his work!
How long will the wicked triumph?
They talk arrogantly
All who do evil boast.
Eternal One! They crush your people
They oppress your inheritance;
They slaughter the widow and the stranger
They murder the orphan.
They say the LORD do not look! …
He who created the ear would he not hear?
He who formed the eye would he not see? …
For the LORD has not forsaken his people,
He will not forsake his inheritance. 185
