THE VIEW FROM HERE - The Allied Forces finally insisted on the Nazi’s total, complete, and conditional surrender. In retrospect, historians realize that anything less would have resulted in the Nazis re-arming Germany and again attacking the rest of Europe. The world has to admit that Hamas’ barbarism is more morally evil than even the German Nazis. If the American media of today had existed in 1944 and 1945, it would have ignored the death camps and insisted that Poland and England were the aggressors, while ABC, CBS, etc. would have argued the beleaguered Nazis should continue as Germany’s government and WW II was the fault of the Jews.
One major difference between the Nazis and Hamas is that the Nazis actually were pursuing an aggressive foreign policy to make the German Third Reich all powerful. While Nazis persecuted dissenting Germans, it never had a policy to maximize German deaths. The Nazis provided extensive air raid shelters and other protections to the German civilians during the war. On the other hand, Hamas sole purpose is to exterminate the Jews, and Hamas’ main tactic is to murder and maim as many Gazans as possible by hiding behind civilians, by placing Hamas military equipment in schools, by not allowing Gazans into the tunnels when Israel announces that the IDF will be bombing. Hamas deprived Gazans of decent infrastructure and squandered billions of dollars on hundreds of miles of terrorist tunnels. About the only time one will find a Hamas militant above ground and vulnerable, he will be in civilian clothes. That’s how Yahya Sinwar was dressed when the drone took him out. His brother, Mohammad, was more cautious and always hid among civilians. Under international law, any combatant like Mohammad Sinwar, who hides behind civilians, commits a war crime, - except in the eyes of CBC, NBC, and Woke Dems. Yet, the US media chooses to assist these war criminals in their goal to exterminate the Jews by spreading Hamas’ anti-Jewish propaganda.
Hamas’ August 18, 1988 Charter states: “Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it”. “The Day of Judgment will not come about until Muslims fight Jews and kill them. Then, the Jews will hide behind rocks and trees, and the rocks and trees will cry out: ‘O Moslem, there is a Jew hiding behind me, come and kill him.’”
Hamas’ 2017 charter is similarly based on the death of all Jews from the “River to the Sea.” As the questioning of scores of anti-Jewish protestors at Harvard and Columbia Universities showed, most had no idea what river or what sea. A few opined it referred to Israel’s occupation of Gaza, despite the fact that Israel and every Jew had left Gaza in 2005 and in 2006 Gazans freely elected Hamas to be their government. The Woke Dems and their media cohorts do not explain that the “River” is the Jordan River, Israel’s eastern border with Jordan, and the “Sea” is the Mediterranean Sea which is Gaza’s western border. In brief, “From the River to the Sea” means the extermination of the state of Israel and all its Jews.
The Woke Dems who have imposed their DEI educational ideology since at least 2015 on American universities have had almost a whole decade to teach students at Harvard and MIT that “From the River to the Sea” means to continue the genocide of Jews, while being silent about the genocidal Hamas charters. Since Islamists like the Muslim Brotherhood and its off-shoot Hamas believe that Jews are inherently evil due to their failure to convert to Islam, the existence of Jewish state (Israel) rebuts their core belief that GOD’s covenant with the Jews ended when Mohammad replaced the Jews with the Muslims as GOD’s chosen people. Thus, the existence of Israel and the viability of Jews deny the Koran’s key belief that it is the sole religion for the entire world.
Hamas’ Goal is The Same as Hitler’s Final Solution
When Netanyahu said that Hamas had to be destroyed, he was adopting as his prototype the Allied’ May 9th demand for the total, complete unconditional surrender of the Nazi government. Americans forget, or never bothered to learn, however, that the Nazi surrender actually took place over three days -- May 7, May 8, and May 9, 1945. The May 7th version did not demand the Nazis’ total, complete and unconditional surrender. Similar to how Trump made a separate peace with the Houthis, the western Allied Powers originally omitted Russia so that the Nazis would continue the war on the western front against the Russians and the Nazis would remain Germany’s government. Had the May 7th surrender document stood, it is likely that the Nazis would have become Germany’s post WW II government; some Americans were foolishly certain that the Nazis had learned their lesson and would be great partners for peace. See Why Nazi Surrendered Twice
The Russians, however, were not so naive and were rightfully outraged and demanded that another, more comprehensive surrender document be signed which took Russia into account and excised the Nazis from all power. That was accomplished on May 9, which is why Russia celebrates WW II’s end on May 9th. (See How the Nazis Held Out
Each time Netanyahu agrees to a cease-fire, Hamas, the Israeli lunatic left, and American wokers cheer. They reason, “If Netanyahu agrees to these absurd terms, he will eventually surrender to Hamas.” How many Americans know that Netanyahu agreed to release another 1,000 convicted criminals from Israeli prisons so that they can join Hamas? The word narishkeit is too mild for such stupidity. The exchange of 1,000 criminals for a few hostages makes it appear that there is an honest quid pro quo, rather than the fact each day a hostage is held is a separate Hamas war crime. On October 8th and every day thereafter, the world should have demanded that Hamas release each and every hostage ASAP. Instead, the Woke media always blames Israel for any deaths including deaths that never happened, or happened in Syria, or were directly done by Hamas. The US media refuses to acknowledge its assistance with Hamas by its years of false anti-Jewish reporting about who is at fault for the plight of the Gazans. As Harvard, Columbia, and other elite universities learned years ago, being anti-Semitic rakes in Arab dollars from the likes of Qatar and Woke dollars from Pelosi. In face of this worldwide woke anti-Jewish campaign, Netanyahu seems to have forgotten that anti-Jewish Blood Libels which go unchallenged are accepted as truth. As long as Netanyahu accepts virtually every cockamamie American cease-fire as if Hamas and Iran are not genocidal war criminals, he undercut the Israel’s legitimacy.
One may argue that during the time that US had the anti-Semitic Biden Administration, there was reason for Netanyahu to tread cautiously. Israel knew could use the extra time to wipe out Hezbollah, as well as weaken Hamas and Iran. Before Trump won in November 2024, Trump was urging Netanyahu to act and act now and stop delaying. Post election, Trump continued to give Netanyahu the green light. Yet, Netanyahu dithered.
While the traditional American Jewish agencies were and are heavily invested in the anti-Jewish Woke DEI, Americans have soured on Wokeism and still overwhelmingly support Israel. See 2023 Americans Hate Wokeism These Woke Jewish agencies have done nothing to support Trump’s attempts to root out anti-Semitism in American education. In fact, leading Jewish agencies like the American Jewish Committee (AJC), the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), and many JFEDS raise millions of dollars over each anti-Semitic incident. Yet, they still support the Dems’ anti-Jewish Woke DEI in education and elsewhere. If Netanyahu is waiting for support from the AJC, the ADL, and JFEDs, he can stop waiting for Godot.
Netanyahu Should Recognize That Nothing Succeeds like Success
More than anything else in the world, Trump lives and breathes to be a winner. Netanyahu has to rescue Trump from his impending disaster with Iran. There is no Iranian deal to be had. Iran will delay until it perfects its nukes delivery system so that the US and Israel will face an alliance between four nuclear powers: Iran, Russia, China and Korea.
