We're to blame
Chaim Seligman writes that we Israelis are (at least partly) responsible for the murder by a 'Palestinian' terrorist of 19-year old Eden Atias on a bus in Afula on Wednesday. And he's right (Hat Tip: Mrs. Carl).WE are responsible for all of the above. Hopefully we are not directly responsible for funding the terrorist organization etc. Rather, we are certainly responsible for empowering them. The apologetic mentality of all too many Jews and westerners has allowed these hatemongers to gain legitimacy. In being afraid of becoming labeled as racists or hatemongers ourselves, we have only allowed the infectious bacteria of hatred to thrive and metastasize.
Sounds a lot like some of what I wrote yesterday, doesn't it?The time has come to stop apologizing for wrongs we have not committed. After releasing another 26 cold blooded murderers on October 30th with the naive hopes of garnering at least a miniscule improvement in Israel’s world status, UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon shot those hopes down with Israel’s very own rifle. In the same breath he praised the release of the “poor prisoners” and vehemently condemned Netanyahu’s empty promise to build 1,500 new units over the imaginary Green Line. Israel was put in her place in the most global of forums. It should not take us getting to the pitiful situation where we are guilty of enabling and promoting future murders and terrorist attacks while simultaneously lying to our own people about something as simple as lowering the cost of rent while hopefully strengthening our grip on our land, to realize what is happening.
