Once again Israel is fighting against those who hate it and have vowed to kill all the jews. Hamas and the citizens who elected it to power have declared an end to the truce and fired more rockets into Israel. Israel responded back and Hamas and the citizens who elected them are dying. This time Israel seems intent on killing all of hamas in Gaza once and for all. Hamas seems to have underestimated their support around the world. The majority of the world seems tired of hamas.
A surprising few of the liberal left have once again stood up on their hind legs and protested against Israel. They claim Israel is fighting a premeditated war. They say its premeditated as Israel is targeting hamas leaders, command and control centers, and supply depots. In a nation that is always under attack I find it stupid that they believe Israel doesn't have contingency plans for attack by their enemies. Do they think we here in the United States don't have plans in place should we be attacked by our likely enemies? I sure hope not!
Their next complaint is that Israel is targeting civilians or not doing enough to protect them from collateral damage. Excuse me folks but the hamas killers who started this war are hiding once again behind the skirts of women and bodies of children. All the while they continue firing rockets at Israeli civilian population centers. The response from the left is of course the sound of silence.
Israel only wants peace. They only attack after repeated attacks. Hamas, the PLO, as well as most of their neighbors publicly state they want to destroy Israel. The killers and their supporters them whine that the Israeli response was disproportionate to their provocation. To many civilians, that they hide behind, are killed. They have even been found to stage photo ops for their allied press. Your whine is heard and ignored.
It is written in the bible by God speaking to Israel, "I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse those who curse you." I and my house will serve the Lord and pray for Israel and learning for its enemies.
Hamas and its supporters have made their choice. Now they can live or die with those choices. Hamas and those who elected them have the power to end the war. Stop firing rockets into Israel and agree to never do it again. Israel wants nothing in Gaza but peace. I do not here the complaints of how poor the Palestinians are. They have plenty of money for rockets, suicide belts and bullets. Convert their swords into plowshares and enjoy peace and prosperity. Its not rocket science.
