Europe Learned the Wrong Lesson From the October 7 Attack; Macron and Starmer plan to reward Hamas’s genocidal efforts.

Biden, Obama, and most Democrats, I'm sure, would join them

"The powerful blow that was delivered to Israel on Oct. 7 has yielded three very important historic achievements. First of all, it brought the Palestinian cause back. Why are all these countries recognizing Palestine now? The overall outcome of Oct. 7 forced the world to open its eyes to the Palestinian cause, and to act forcefully in this respect."  "Thus spoke Hamas Politburo member Ghazi Hamad to Al Jazeera." 

"We can thank Herr Hamad for his ingenuousness. October 7 did seem to be an inflection point in the minds of exterminationists like Hamas as well as for their wannabes, useful idiots, and assorted camp followers in the media, on campuses, and an ever-larger percentage of Democrats. Unlike the Nazis, who even at the peak of their power still made a semblance of hiding their genocidal aims, Hamas and the other Gazans who followed them to rape, torture, kidnap, and murder Israeli civilians on that day posted their activities online, sometimes streaming them live. One memorable call placed by a Hamasnik to his parents back in Gaza had him screaming with pride and joy, telling them he had himself killed 10 Jews that very day, and the parents sounding as happy as Jewish parents hearing their kids tell them they just got into med school. (RELATED: Look Back in Anger: The October 7 Commission Report)

"While the murders were still proceeding apace, demonstrations immediately formed on campuses and in the streets of Western European cities. Most demanded a ceasefire, an exceedingly strange thing to do since at that time, the only attack had been made by Hamas. Gradually, more and more demonstrators made clear by their words and by their deeds that they approved of the violence and supported the Hamas plan of completely eliminating the nation of Israel and of violence against Jews everywhere in the world. Demonstrators became vocal advocates for “Globalizing the Intifada,” the Intifada being the grisly campaign of bombing pizza shops, shopping malls, and city buses that Yassir Arafat launched against Israel’s civilians less than a decade after agreeing to peace with Israel on the White House lawn and getting the Nobel Peace Prize. They chanted, “From the River to the Sea,” designating that their goal is a single state, occupying all the area from the Jordan to the Mediterranean, that is as ethnically homogeneous as the PA is now — home to no Jews at all. (RELATED: Palestinians’ ‘Allies’ Need to Abolish Hamas, Not Israel)

"All that is fairly old news, rehashed for the one or two readers who may have only now tuned in to the story. The new development this week was expressed with admirable candor and brevity by the Wall Street Journal editorial board in an August 6 editorial they titled: Kill Jews, Get Your Own State."

"What they are referring to is the announced intention of both Britain and France to recognize a Palestinian state. Macron and Starmer are as adept as Daladier and Chamberlain at rationalizing their capitulation to terror regimes, though in Chamberlain’s defense, the Umbrella Man was at least sincere in thinking that appeasement would lead to Hitler’s moral reform and real peace." . . .
