President Joe Biden, 80, confirmed today the nightmare atrocities committed by Hamas against Israeli civilians in Kibbutz villages near the Gaza border. Execution like killings of men, women and children, beheadings of children and soldiers, every conceivable horror not seen since ISIS or the Nazi rampage before-and-during WW II. Protests at college campuses, started at Harvard University, where leftist groups protest Israeli treatment of Palestinians, divert attention from the unspeakable horrors perpetrated by Hamas terrorists. Protesters are too brainwashed to listen to Biden tell them that the U.S. government will not support mass murder and atrocities to advance political agendaa. Misguided protesters, including members of Congress, don’t get that atrocities are not tolerated under Biden to advance political agendas. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, 73, rightfully declared war Oct. 7.
Leftist college professors and pro-Palestinian activists forget Sept. 11, when the U.S. was massacred by Osama bin laden, killing in one day nearly 3,000 U.S. citizens and others. Former President George W. Bush said that the United States will not negotiate with terrorists, the same situation today in Israel. For the bloodthirsty Hamas regime claiming to defend Palestinian rights, Biden made clear there are no justifications, no excuses for repeating genocide and other atrocities to advance a political agenda. Biden gave Netanyahu the green light with U.S. military-and-finanical-support to end the Hamas regime if possible. Netanyahu knows what he faces in Gaza, forced into door-to-door combat to clear out terrorists nests. Pro-Palesstinian protests don’t have the backing of the U.S. government. Some members of Congress like Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) are equally misguided.
Hamas and Gaza residents face relentless air strikes before the Israeli Defense Forces [IDF] see fit to launch a ground invasion, something necessary to root out Hamas terrorists embedded in the civilian population. While the White House would like to think Gaza residents think differently than Hamas, polls show that Gaza citizens back Hamas goal to destroy Israel, but, more importantly, wipe out the Jewish population. So, when it comes to the latest atrocities by Hamas, the leftist world, whether in universities or the halls of Congress, are part of Palestinian resistance. Osama bin Laden had his perverted excuses for decimating the World Trade Center and Penagom because of U.S. Mideast foreign policy. Many Arab capitals ran editorials saying the U.S. deserved what it got on Sept. 11. So, Israel shouldn’t take too seriously leftist protests on college campuses or elsewhere.
White House officials confirmed today that 22 U.S. citizens have been killed by Hamas terrorists in Gaza, with another 17 more either dead or taken hostage. Over 2,300, Israelis and Palestinians, have been killed in the Hamas slaughter or Israeli aerial bombardments. Nentanyahu knows that before a humanitarian crisis grips Gaza, the IDF has a short window in which to root out Hamas militants and destroy Gaza’s elaborate number of smuggling tunnels. Hamas sympathizers say they were surprised that they were so easily able to invade Israel and kill so many Jews. But those same Palestinian apologists say that Israel has clay feet, the same thing said about Arab miliaries. Netanyahu has his work cut out for him fixing Israeli security failures, allowing Hamas to breach the Gaza security wall and start the mayhem. Military experts think the Gaza conflict could last for months, maybe years.
Biden confirmed that reports of beheadings o children and IDF personnel have been validated by military sources. “I have been doing this for a long time,” Biden said today. “I never really thought that I would see and have confirmed pictures of terrorists beheading children.” Cell phone photos and video from the Kfar Aza Kibbutz show the Hamas atrocities. Whatever thoughts Palestinians had about a two-state solution, it’s out of the question for the foreseeable future. Hamas doesn’t want a two-state solution, it wants to destroy Israel and kill all the Jews. Maj. Libby Weiss told CBS that more than one Israeli soldier confirmed reports at Kfar Asa of “beheaded children of varying ages, ranging from babies to slightly older children,” along with dismembered adults. Hamas has put into ruins any chance of a future Palestinian state as long as its it remains in power in Gaza or the West Bank.
Finding a motive for Hamas’ rampage isn’t easy when you consider they want to destroy Israel and drive Jews from the Holy Land. With the current mayhem, Palestinians have all but killed their hopes of having a two-state solution. No U.N. commission is going to help Palestinians achieve their goals of conquering Israel. Palestinian leaders like Yasser Arafat knew how to play the game with the U.N., blaming Israel for denying Palestinian rights. Biden said Hamas committed the most atrocities on Jews since the Nazi Holocaust. Civilian emergency worker Yossi Landau said he saw children and babies who had been beheaded. Whatever the denials by Hamas, medical forensic experts have all the body parts collected for verification. Israel has no choice but to enter Gaza City, go door-to-door, and spend the time to root out Hamas leaders and their terrorist machine.
