Topsy Turvy in the Middle East: The Case for Total Victory

Gatestone Institute.

 "Such were the mutilations that not a single corpse of a girl or a woman was in a state fit to be shown to her family before burial." 

The murder of 1,200 Israeli men, women and children, rape, torture and mutilation -- both before murder and post-mortem -- these crimes were committed by approximately 3,000 Arabs from Gaza, most of whom – but not all -- were Hamas terrorists, on October 7, 2023. Such were the mutilations that not a single corpse of a girl or a woman was in a state fit to be shown to her family before burial.

"One year ago, in the form of armed Hamas terrorists, death arrived on the wings of the morning at the Supernova music festival in southern Israel. Three hundred and sixty-four revellers were murdered there, out of the 1,200 murdered altogether that terrible October 7.

"At the London memorial gathering on October 6, 2024, all those faces, overwhelmingly of young people, were projected onto a big screen. Standing in a cold English drizzle, it took more than an hour to view them all, in the knowledge that the fate of those smiling faces was one of utter depravity. Rape, torture and mutilation -- both before murder and post-mortem -- these crimes were committed by approximately 3,000 Arabs from Gaza, most of whom – but not all -- were Hamas terrorists.

"More than 240 people in Israel – including children and a baby – were abducted to tunnels in Gaza, where those who are not dead remain. Many of the atrocities were recorded on smartphones, car dash-cams and terrorists' body cameras. Such were the mutilations that not a single corpse of a girl or a woman was in a state fit to be shown to her family before burial.

Iranians teach "Death to Israel" to Americans

"There is a memorable message texted back to mom and dad in Gaza from one young man using a murdered Israeli woman's smartphone, boasting of the number of Jews that he had just murdered. October 7 was a pogrom --- an act of bloodlust impelled by genocidal intent -- and the worst killing of Jews on any day since the Holocaust. With a grim resonance to when Jews were last lambs to the slaughter, October 7 was also the eightieth anniversary of the Auschwitz Sonderkommando revolt. Jewish slaves tasked with pulling corpses from the gas chambers and burning them in the crematoria in Auschwitz-Birkenau attempted, with explosives smuggled to them by women prisoners, to blow them up.

"The legendary professionalism of Israel's intelligence services suffered its worst failure since the misreading of Egypt in 1973 at the start of the Yom Kippur War." . . .

Agitator behind ‘Death to America’ chants in Chicago contributes to Iran state TV, Hezbollah-linked channel 

 "[Iranian] The Free Press first broke the story about Rizvi’s chants that occurred during a breakout session of an event in which 300 activists countrywide gathered to plan protests to disrupt the Democratic National Convention in August. The crowd reportedly burst into applause hours later when another activist shared the news that the Islamic Republic of Iran had attacked Israel, launching more than 300 bomb-bearing Shahed drones and ballistic missiles into its airspace."

Gays in that room should be aware that Rizvi could have been one of those who threw gays off a tall roof in Iran. TD
