I am a man of many limitations. None more so than a limited capacity to discern my logical thought from my emotional heart.
My thumos from my logos. This is normally not a problem because while my intellect is small, I have always managed to look at issues from both sides of the proverbial coin and around its edges. That is until this past week.
Father Abraham had many Sons and I am one of them.
My heart breaks little by little every day as I weep for Israel. An unprovoked, and yes I mean unprovoked, attack on civilians is condemnable on its face. Add in the murder and beheading of babies, there is no word in any language to define it.
Now I know half of Americans want the right to murder babies, but I hope when our doctors do it, it is in a humane way.
The babies at least are not mutilated and danced on. Our doctors, and I hope I am speaking truth, do not offer their dismembered bodies to a "god" as trophies.
Words lyke de-colonization, apartheid, and settlers have no meaning to me. They carry no weight in the justification of what Hamas did. At least, so I thought/think. How can I think this and yet millions upon millions think otherwise? What am I missing? I ask with all sincerity. People in America dancing in the street because of the rape and murder committed by Hamas.
How am I on the wrong side of this? How is the world not unified in not only condemning Hamas but also allowing it to exist in history books? What the FUCK AM I MISSING?
I hear about open-air prisons in Gaza. Israel did not make them so. Hamas, the elected government of Gaza, has made life hell for its people.
What does Hamas do when they are given pipes to build sewers and water lines, they cut them up to make rockets to shoot at Israel. What does Hamas do when they are given concrete for rebuilding infrastructure? They build terrorist tunnels to kill Israelites.
Israel has let Palestinians have a seat in their government. Do any Jews hold any government seats in Gaza?
Israel provides aid and Hamas provides pain.
When Israel retaliates against Hamas, they give ample warning to Palestinians. I have heard some phone conversations between Israelites and Palestinians, where the Israeli urges and even begs the Palestine to remove as many people as possible before a strike and the Palestine refuses. The Palestinian claims that it is god's will that he and his children die, so the world sees how "evil" Israel is.
Nope. Evil is shooting rockets at Israel from a hospital.
Those little bitches hide behind women and children. Real men shield women and children with their own bodies. Whatever. Fuck that. Now, here in America, college kids are having rallies for Palestine. Our children are being brainwashed. Higher Education/Indoctrination is poisoning our kids and destroying our future. We need to find out the names of every person celebrating the attack and cancel them. Cancel the fuck out of them.
UNO is having a Palestine rally. I am ashamed to have a degree from them. Fuck the Privateers.
The union that represents Starbucks workers has stated its support for Hamas. Fuck Starbucks.
The Democrat Socialist Party of America supports the terror attack.
Black Lives Matter supports Hamas.
Is all this purely ignorance or am I missing something. My head hurts and my heart aches
What did those babies do?
People have fought for land since the beginning of tyme. But in a civilized society, this does not include raping women and killing babies. This is what animals do.
If you are dancing and celebrating what happened to Israel, you are dancing on the bodies of dead headless babies.
If you are posting your Palestine flag and chanting "From the river to the sea", Fuck you, you are celebrating cowardice goat fuckers who do not have the balls or the honor to fight lyke men.
As I walk in the Valley of the Shadow of Death.
So lyke every good insecure asshole, I bring it back to me.
I do not excel in much. In most things,
I am adequate at best. Everything from being a husband to throwing a dart.
What I am excellent at is killing monsters.
I kill with a smile and a full heart.
This is causing me pain now. I cry daily knowing that can help bring those rabid dogs to justice. I would do so knowing that their destroyed lives would join the ones I have already sent to their maker and whose souls frequent my dreams. Nightmares are the cost of killing monsters and it is the price I pay gladly.
My love for my wife and need for her touch override my need to serve justice. This saddens me. My love for my wife does not sadden me, it strengthens me. What saddens me is my helplessness.
I am a warrior. Without a war I am nothing.
I watch and hear the stories and they move me to emotions. I dare not turn away. Since I will not be joining the fight I will keep my face towards the east so I may watch and hear evil. I will not turn away because I will not turn away from God's vengeance.
The leader of Hamas said that Jew's weakness is their love of life. Celebrating life is something America and Israel used to have in common. He believes love for life is a weakness. He has no idea. He went on to say Hamas' strength comes from their love for death. Martyrdom is celebrated. Be careful what you wish for.
We cannot negotiate with rabid dogs.
Sadly, what I believe is exacerbating my inner turmoil is the belief that this evil may be on our shores. I look at my wife and shudder to think of one of those monsters getting their filthy hands on her. I look at the faces of all the children who call me Bubba or Uncle Ray Ray and weep trying not to imagine the horrors that could be inflicted upon them.
We have a wide-open border and thankfully we have caught close to 1,000 known or suspected terrorists and I hate to imagine how many were not caught.
When I see these fools having pro-Hamas/Palestine rallies, I know they will have safe harbor. These idiots have no idea that Hamas would rather throw them all off of rooftops with their they/them pronouns. "Gays for Palestine" Yeah try flying that flag in Gaza 2 weeks ago. You fucking idiots.
Hamas hides behind children, what makes you think they would care about you. Israel begs civilians to get out of the way and Hamas orders them to stay and die.
Why is there even a debate?
If Hamas and other Evil Palestinians laid down their weapons, there would be peace. If Israel laid down their weapons, there would be no Israelis.
It does not get any simpler.
Father Abraham had many sons, and I am one of them.
