When I was growing up, virtually everyone understood that you have a right to speak your mind, but if you threaten or harass someone you could be charged with “verbal assault”. That’s a crime, so don’t do that! You didn’t have to have a barroom brawl, just threatening a person with physical harm was an assault. Why don’t people know this anymore? I’m blaming the same school system that no longer teaches how our government functions (“Civics”), or the responsibilities that come with being a U.S. citizen.
What is particularly disgusting about the pro-Hamas protests is the psychopathic fetishizing of Hamas.
There is no excusing, rationalizing, nor legitimizing the orgy of rape and murder Hamas unleashed on October 7th, 2023. None.
There is no excusing Hamas’ very explicit and admitted strategy of using the Arabs in Gaza as human shields, positioning women and children in and around their combatants and supplies specifically to maximize the casualties from the inevitable Israeli retaliations.
There is no denying that Hamas stands guilty of double genocide—they want to exterminate the Israeli population and they mean to kill every Arab in Gaza along the way.
Yet people defend Hamas and will not speak ill of their barbarism.
When the Arabs in Gaza understand that Hamas only wants death and not peace, when the Arabs in Gaza disavow and distance themselves from Hamas, only then will the Arabs in Gaza have any chance for peace.
So long as the Arabs in Gaza remain aligned with Hamas, the only peace they can ever have is the peace of the grave.
So true! I have been mystified by any support for Hamas, so much so that I’ve concluded that the protests in their favor must be paid protesters, funded by some USAID-backed anti-America subversive group. That makes me a “conspiracy theorist”, but I can’t come up with any rational reason why anyone would support such barbarism and cruelty. The college students who have rallied in favor of Hamas are young, duped idiots who will probably have some serious levels of remorse later in life for what they did.
Exactly right, Peter, and exquisitely stated!
