The Israeli Response

When it becomes politically correct to yell Death to all Jews, it becomes politically correct to kill them

The Israeli Response

  • What are some examples of Israel's aftermath after terror attacks?
    • Nearly 300 Israelis were murdered in terror attacks. that occurred between the time of the Oslo Accords (Sept. 1993) and September 2000,.
      • Since September 2000, Palestinian terrorist attacks have claimed at least 1,421 Israeli lives, and hundreds more have been wounded.
        • Since September 2015, Israel has experienced a wave of terror perpetrated by individuals, many of them very young, inspired by vicious incitement in Palestinian social and traditional media, urged by the Palestinian leadership.
          • On the 30th of March 2018, Hamas instigated a campaign that was billed as a peaceful civilian protest but was actually an excuse for violent riots on the Gaza Strip-Israeli border. The attacks included launching kites and helium balloons with explosive material attached from the Gaza Strip to the Israeli side.
            • Beginning May 10th, 2021, Hamas launched an eleven-day rocket attack that targeted Israeli cities, towns, and villages, including Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, in which 12 civilians and one IDF soldier were killed and many more were injured.
            • What was the world's response to the terror attack on October 7th?
              • There are plenty of quotes from terrorist-supporting professors that expressed excuses and support for the massacre perpetrated by Hamas on October 7, 2023:
                • "The Zionists have been exposed for the criminals and blood-thirsty animals that they are. This is a gift from Allah to the world." - Osman Umarji, a Lecturer at the School of Education at the University of California.
                • "We must refuse those who demand that we condemn Palestinian violence" - Bikrum Gill, Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Science at Virginia Tech.
                • “Liberals think 'free Palestine' means it should only happen by appealing to the morality of Israelis & hoping they stop doing an apartheid; instead of what Palestinians are doing, whether it’s BDS or armed struggle or bravely paragliding over the fence to capture Israeli soldiers” Nora Barrows-Friedman.
              • Based on the Harvard-Harris poll, 60% of people aged 18-24 and 40% of those aged 35-44 believe that the attacks were genocidal and justified.
                • The Gen Z effect:
                  • Gen Z is a highly diverse generation that adopts a progressive stance on issues such as gender, race, and religion, questioning traditional boundaries.
                  • They primarily rely on social media platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and Twitter for information, which often provides them with unauthorized and potentially biased views on social and political topics.
                  • Research and interviews with Hamas-supporting students on campuses indicate that this generation may base their opinions on misinformation and have a limited understanding of complex issues.
                  • Their perceptions are influenced by the narrative that likens Israelis to 19th-century European colonists, leading to the spread of anti-Israel sentiments fueled by social media content creators.
              • The "Letter to America" which has been trending on social media, gives a good insight into the consequences of these progressive views:
                • "Letter to America" is a document by Osama Bin Laden, the Al-Qaeda leader responsible for the 9/11 attacks, in which he attempts to justify the attacks.
                  • A translated version of the letter was published and shared on social media in November 2002. In it, Bin Laden frames the 9/11 attacks as a form of resistance against US foreign policies, particularly citing US involvement and perceived injustices in Muslim countries such as Palestine, Somalia, Chechnya, Kashmir, Lebanon, and the economic sanctions in Iraq.
                    • He criticizes the U.S. for its hypocrisy, particularly highlighting the continued Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories, which he argues is overlooked by international law.
                      • The letter went viral in November regarding the Israeli-Palestinian issue.
                        • TikTok content creators posted videos addressing his letter, explaining how the attack was a brave act of freedom to fight against inhumane occupiers.
                        • The hashtag #lettertoamerica had over 14 million views.
                        • Trend participants claimed: “Everything we learned about the Middle East, 9/11, and ‘terrorism’ was a lie.”
                        • One major statement that gained momentum due to the release of the letter is “when people are occupiers resistance is justified”. This statement, in effect, normalizes and and justifies terrorism.

                        Conclusions

                        Gen Z TikTokers and US university professors use rhetoric that legitimizes violence and Jewish genocide by calling it a "brave struggle for freedom." In a world where activists celebrate terrorism as heroism, how are Jews supposed to feel safe?
