Jews get blamed for defending themselves
Once again Jews are being slaughtered and the world's reaction is not surprisingly, either indifference or sympathy cloaked in statements that somehow the murders were the fault of those living as Jews. Whether the numbers are staggering (6 million murdered in the Holocaust) or singular (think of Leon Klinghoffer, a 69-year-old American man in a wheelchair who was shot and then pushed overboard by Palestine Liberation Front hijackers who took over the Achille Lauro cruise ship in 1985). Make no mistake. This is a war against Jews and my greatest fear is that the hatred will turn to murders in other parts of the world.
Ukraine can defend itself, America can invade Iraq looking for WMD bit Israel alone is "ordered" to show restraint.
While Rep. Tlaib (Michigan) can scream all she wants about the false narrative of Israel being an apartheid state, let me point out that that in the Israeli Knesset (parliament) 10 elected members are Arabs. This, in a country with a total population of just 9 million.
Contrast with the U.S. Congress, in which just six legislators are of Arab ethnicity.
The solution to the bloodshed, rocket attacks and murders which have become "life" for those living in Israel can be found in a quote from Golda Meir, uttered 50 years ago: "Peace will come when the Arabs will love their children more than they hate us.
