While, I am sure, we all condemn, as we indeed must, the terrorist attack and murder of the rabbinical students at the Yeshiva in Jerusalem the other day one must, nevertheless, wonder how it can be that the government of the United States of America and and that of the United Kingdom ONLY every condemn attacks by Palestinians on Jews but never, it would appear, the other way round.
Those two countries, with Germany in addition, only ever come out in the defense of the Zionist state of Israel and its citizens and nothing is said of 100s, including children, being murdered by IDF actions against the civilian population of Gaza, for example. Nor are the targeted assassinations of Hamas officials, who, after all, won the election in Gaza, with even the observers from Western nations stating that the elections were fair, open and free, and often, during those assassinations innocent bystanders are killed or even the wrong people all together, again, often including children.
But, no condemnation from the states that immediately are very vociferous when it is Jews that are killed. Nothing is ever said against the Jewish terror, and terror it is, against the Palestinians of Gaza and elsewhere, and the blockade of Gaza, with people being forced to live off aid, having no electricity, etc.
Is it any wonder that the rest hates the West, and with West we here, obviously, predominately mean the USA and Great Britain? It certainly is not.
As in my previous article I call upon the readers of this journal to join me, and others I hope, in a boycott of Israeli companies, products and produce.
