ISRAELI FAMILY BUTCHERED BY TERRORISTS

I don’t know, but with all of the news coming out of Japan this week, considering the extent of the deaths, and suffering caused by the cataclysmic tsunami following the 9.1 magnitude earthquake that hit all of the islands; did anyone hear about the Israeli family asleep in their home, whose three little children were butchered by terrorists? The news follows. But please allow me one comment on this because I must write about it, or I will blow up.

What kind of a monster would invade a home, and prey on defenseless children by slithering their throat, and sticking a knife into their heart? Regardless of political ideology, religious beliefs, ethnocentrism, or racial bias; what kind of a creature would commit such a horrendous act of murder to children!? CHILDREN!! Listen to me right now! I DON’T CARE WHAT THE MEDIA TELLS YOU ABOUT SETTLEMENTS, ABOUT PEACE TREATIES, ABOUT LAND EXPROPRIATION, OR WHATEVER YOU CHOOSE TO JUSTIFY YOUR HATRED OF JEWS OR ANYONE ELSE FOR THAT MATTER – I’m talking to specific people here and I need not say who or what they are, they know who they are and they know what they are – NOTHING, AND I MEAN NO POLITICAL, SOCIO-ECONOMIC, RELIGIOUS, OR ANY OTHER REASON THAT ANYONE CAN CITE CAN JUSTIFY WHAT THESE TERRORISTS DID TO THIS DEFENSELESS FAMILY THIS WEEKEND IN THEIR OWN HOME! There is absolutely no justification for such a horrendous act of savagery. None whatsoever. Why!? WHY!? What did these little children have to do with your hatred?

And what follows afterwards is perhaps even worst; a whole community of Palestinian Arab Muslims celebrate this evil! What kind of people I ask you would do such a thing, and later members of their community celebrate such a horrendous act!? Remember Tuesday, September 11th, 2001, and how Palestinian Arab Muslims celebrated all across the Palestinian Territory Sections of Israel after the Twin Towers fell? What kind of a person would celebrate the horrible death of another, especially the murder of almost three thousand souls; and some of them people from Muslim and Arab lands?

If this is what we are to expect of a community, or a group, or even a people – anyone who claims they want peace, and are trying to obtain sympathy for their cause, whatever that cause may be, and in this case we know what that cause is – murder and annihilation of the Jewish people – then such a community, group, or even nation must never be trusted to honor any treaty, promise, or commitment. This I know without any reservation or doubt, Hamas, Hezbollah, Fatah, Al Qaeda, Islamic Jihad, the Muslim Brotherhood, the PFLP, or any other organization committed to eradicating from the Holy Land all non-Muslims, be they Jews, Jewish Christians, Palestinian Arab Christians, Arab Christians from the lands of Islam, or Christians and Jews from other lands, they are an affront to G-d and to civilization itself, and they will never succeed, for G-d Himself opposes them, and they will be defeated and destroyed.

And where is the outrage from the international community for this horrendous crime!? Where are voices, the usual voices, which decry the building of Jewish settlements on land which G-d promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob long before these nations existed, and long before there was a UN? Where was the president of the United States? Why didn’t he come out and say something himself, instead of speaking through his press office!? Why did he go and instead play golf and hold parties in the White House as though nothing had occurred this past weekend!? This is an outrage!

But, who would kill innocent children in such a manner? How can any human being bring themselves to commit such acts of savagery against innocents in the dead of night while they were asleep!? How can any person do such a thing to another and live with themselves afterwards!? Try to consider the magnitude of what occurred here, a family was invaded in their home while they slept and put to death horribly by demonic criminals! Try to picture if you can, I know it is very difficult because our minds cannot conceive such acts, but try to imagine this happening to your neighbor, or to a family member, or to even someone who is closer to you than anyone else. And not just die, but to be put to death horribly, without mercy, without pity taken for the innocence of these little children; one of them was THREE YEARS OLD!

If they do not repent from their ways; may the G-d of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob destroy His enemies and the enemies of His people from the land and from the human race! The Lord G-d who sees all that man does under the sun and in secret will bring justice to these murderers in due time, and the world will know that there is a G-d in Israel and His name is the Lord Our Redeemer and Our Deliverer! Blessed be His name! Blessed be the G-d of Israel, who alone is G-d, and there is no other! Baruch Ha Shem! Blessed be the Name.
