Genocide in Israel

Kathryn Jean Lopez has a lengthy interview with Giulio Meotti. Meotti is an Italian reporter who, as you may recall, has written a book about the victims of the 'Palestinian' terror war against Israel. I've posted about it previously here and here.
‘The victims were sleeping as the killer came in. The paramedics described children’s toys right next to pools of blood. It’s the worst single attack in Israel’s recent history.”

That’s Giulio Meotti, describing the slaughter last week of five members of the Fogel family on the West Bank. They were killed “while they were sleeping in their home on the Sabbath evening,” as Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in denouncing the act of terrorism.

In truth, as horrific as it was, the attack was far from foreign to the lives of Israelis. As is the widespread lack of outrage internationally.

As Meotti tells me, “Those who profess to deplore violence on both sides of the Israeli-Palestinian equation have remained relatively silent on the slaughtering of this Israeli family. No words of condemnation about the killing of these innocents have been heard from the human-rights groups, the same faction that is so quick to vilify Israel for defending itself from terrorist attacks, especially when Palestinian citizens lose their lives during a retaliatory foray by Israel. There is no other conclusion to draw: When the deaths of Jewish innocents go unmourned and unacknowledged, it is because Jewish lives do not count. Where’s the outrage? Why is the world silent about the beheading of a Jewish infant? The silence has been telling.”

Giulio Meotti, an Italian journalist, is the author of the haunting book A New Shoah: The Untold Story of Israel’s Victims of Terrorism, dedicated to making sure that these victims are known and not forgotten.

Meotti does a thorough, moving job of introducing the reader to the victims of Islamic, anti-Jewish terrorism. Some of those we meet are Americans. All of them were human. And none of them deserved their fate. Reading Meotti, you come to miss every single one of them, although you probably never physically met them. Meotti talked to me this week about these people who have become victims of what he calls the New Shoah, and what their lives tell us about our own.

Shamefully, the modern Holocaust of the Jews has been hidden by Israel's governments, which have preferred to whitewash the PA's bloody Nazi record of atrocities in the name of pursuing a non-existent peace.

The truth always comes to light and after reading Guilio Menotti's book, one can't help but feel that peace with an unreformed Jew-hating society is impossible.

While the world and Israel's leaders may continue to ignore this fundamental truth, the fact remains is that those who target Israeli children and babies are not interested in co-existence and peace but in wiping out the Jewish people. Daniel Greenfield made the same point the other day.

We ignore it to our own peril.
