War

Greetings gentle readers! I am most troubled by what is happening in the United States regarding the ongoing war with the terrorist organization, Hamas, and the state of Israel. Several college campuses and misguided citizen protests against Israel and in support of Hamas have taken place across the country.

Let us examine the facts. The terrorists wantonly attacked a music festival and many innocent civilians. Not, let me repeat, not military or political targets. In a sneak attack they breached the border and killed for no other purpose than hatred and the antisemitic feelings toward the Israelis. The misguided have supported Hamas saying that Israel has taken their homeland. Ridiculous! There has never been a Palestinian state and Hamas is supported by Iran. It is not only hatred against Israel, but the United States as well.

The misguided also are calling a cease fire as Israel retaliates for the slaughter perpetrated by Hamas, for humanitarian reasons. Let me ask, did any of the Palestinians warn Israel of the pending attacks? Did any of the Palestinians incarcerate the guilty parties after the attack? Yes innocent men, women, and children will die because of the war, that is unfortunate. Israel has the right and the obligation to protect it's citizens and strikes against terrorist not only protects Israel, but the U.S. As well.

If these protesters here were to tour the sites of the attack by Hamas, and interview the eye witnesses to the horror on unarmed families and see the mutilated bodies, I believe the liberal students might have a change of heart and support Israel and denounce Hamas.
