Unless you have been living under a rock for the past week, you know what is happening in Israel even as I write this. Rockets from Gaza, gun battles with Israeli Defense Forces, cyber-attacks and now, there are reports of paragliders with Hamas fighters crossing the northern border of Israel.
Yesterday, we watched as Israeli forces started the process of recovering the dead in a kibbutz, Kfar Aza, located just a mile from the border with Gaza. This is how CNN reported the scene: The IDF told CNN the killings at Kfar Aza amounted to a “massacre,” but said it could not confirm the number of people killed there and would not go into details how they died. CNN could not independently verify the IDF’s accounts of children being killed in the attack. Not long after this report was made, we found out that children and infants were killed, many shot to death and then beheaded.
Because of this, Gaza is now being pounded by Israeli artillery and the Air Force is slowly reducing Gaza to rubble. If all goes as planned, there will not be a building left standing and this, we all know, has been brought on by Hamas and their blood lust for Jews.
Unfortunately, they have failed to remember the motto – Nothing Says - Never Again – Like a Jew with a Gun! … which is the first lesson Americans can take from this war … The Second Amendment really matters! Over the years, the government of Israel has tightened its gun laws with strict requirements, which citizens must meet to possess a concealed carry license. Had the residents of the kibbutz been armed, the final toll of Israelis killed or kidnapped would have been different. After the fact, the government has now loosened the requirements to carry a firearm.
It has been reported that twenty-two Americans have been killed and an unknown number have been kidnapped and dragged across the fence line into Gaza. The Biden Administration’s response – about the same as it was when Americans were left behind in Afghanistan. A speech in which he threatened, “Don’t Do It” … and as soon as he finished speaking … incoming rockets from Lebanon began to fly in the skies of Israel. Biden is weak and the enemy knows it. As for the State Department … it appears that they will send a strongly worded letter. You see … when the leaders of Hamas tell the Wall Street Journal that Iran was the force behind this attack – well, Tony Blinken insists that there is no evidence to accuse Iran of anything. After all, why would Hamas know who funded, equipped and trained them?
Now, as if there was not enough to be concerned about, we are treated to this headline: Iran's allies in Iraq, Yemen threaten U.S. over intervention in Israel … BAGHDAD, Oct 10 (Reuters) - Powerful Iraqi and Yemeni armed groups aligned with Iran have threatened to target U.S. interests with missiles and drones if Washington intervenes to support Israel in its conflict with Hamas in Gaza that already shows signs of expanding to further fronts. So, after 8 years and 4,400 US casualties and loss of untold national treasure, our “friends,” the Iraqis, are threatening our interests and troops who are in the Middle East. This could be the unkindest cut of all --- but why not? It’s a fact that the Biden Administration is considered weak across the globe and as such, he is putting American troops in harm’s way. The United States currently has 2,500 troops in Iraq - and an additional 900 in neighboring Syria - on a mission to advise and assist local forces in combating the Islamic State.
So now, we are faced with our own concerns regarding the southern border, which has been open for the past three years of the Biden Administration. Millions of military age men have entered our country and we do not know who they are. I don’t believe that one is an alarmist to say we need to be prepared right here in the homeland. Antisemitism is on the rise right here in America. If the students of Harvard, along with many other colleges and universities, can express their support for Hamas, we can only guess at what might be on the minds of those gotaway’s on the southern border. If you are Jewish and have not considered arming yourself, this would be the time to acquire a firearm and learn how to use it. Don’t ever believe “it can’t happen here.”
A final thought for now --- a significant number of the Democrat Party have shown their true colors – they are the Antisemitic Party of America. It would not be fair to paint all Democrats with the same brush, but there is enough antisemitism among them to make the Jews of America reconsider their political affiliation and start to support the Republican Party. And while you are thinking about this, DO NOT FORGET THOSE WHO ARE MISSING AT THIS HOUR.
