It’s interesting watching the official spokespersons for Israel making their pronouncements and spouting their propaganda about what they did and continue to do in Gaza. Have you noticed they never actually address any direct question, but spit back the equivalent of “Well Hamas did this, we have to defend our people who are living in fear”. They say this and quote 13 Israelis as having died during the invasion and massacre of 2,000 Gazans. When quoting the ‘13’ as their own death toll they forget to point out that half of those were killed by their own IDF unable to properly use the deadly war toys America had given them to play with, shooting at other IDF soldiers. And yet, their propaganda tells the world that their military campaign was conducted with extreme precision. I guess the grieving families of IDF soldiers killed by other IDF soldiers would disagree. But I digress.
Turning back to the genocidal massacre of Gazans, never ever will the Israelis say a ‘yea’ or a ‘neigh’ when asked about the severity of what they’ve actually done. Instantly, it’s the verbal deflection technique to try to get the questioner to discuss and condemn Hamas rather than talk about the thousands of children and babies Israel has slaughtered or maimed.
To understand more what’s going on here, let’s look to a different but equally depressing scenario.
Imagine this: A 3 year old child is not allowed by its parent to sleep. Whenever the child tries, the parent wakes them up and moves them about. When the child wants to go in a particular direction the parent blocks them. There is nothing the child is allowed to do. The parent is constantly pushing and shoving or not allowing the child to do anything. Even when the child is sleep deprived and crying the parent doesn’t care. So, ultimately, as with many young 3 year old children, the child maybe slaps out at the parent. In return for this the parent punches and kicks the child with the full force that an adult has available, spending days constantly pummelling the tiny fragile child breaking all its ribs, causing untold internal damages, and ultimately leading to the child’s slow and painful death.
When the parent is asked by the shocked police questioner “Why?” the response is “Well, he started it. He was slapping me. We adults won’t tolerate children slapping us.” When pressed about what they’ve done to the poor child, the parent will refuse to address anything at all, but instead try to get the questioner to condemn the child for slapping the parent saying, “Are you not going to say the child slapping me was wrong?”
Well, we all know that what the ‘adult’ has done in this sad scenerio is very very wrong. Evil, in fact. But, for some reason the adult doesn’t see this. They are fixated with trying to get the questioner to focus only on what the child had done, using it as some kind of justification for their unacceptable over-the-top response. The more the questioner tries to address the issues of what the parent did, the more the parent won’t go any further without the questioner condemning the initial action of the child.
Now, to the untrained unsuspecting questioner, this can deflect them away from the actual issue at hand and even lead them into the corner the adult is trying to manouvre them to; having to respond and opine about the child’s initial actions. In truth, the child’s actions can never warrant the extreme beating they received, and that’s what needs to be addressed.
If Israel is supposed to comprise a people whose very religion indoctrinates them to believe they are superior and chosen ones, then, like the adult they should have a duty of care and responsibility to the (as Jews call them) “Goyim” (which is the name they give to cattle and non-Jews), because, like the child, they (the Goyim) know no better. With superiority comes responsibility towards those you’ve decided you are superior to, otherwise all you are is a vicious and callas bully using spiteful, completely over the top unreasonable force to hold your inferiors in check. Does anybody in this world respect a bully? Nope. That’s why Israel has lost its respect from almost everywhere except those who feed its war machine.
The other thing any normal right thinking parent will know is that in order to allow their child to develop properly and safely, and indeed to learn to love and trust the parent, the child doesn’t need to be poked, woken, stopped, interfered with and mentally suffocated, otherwise it will continue to get angry and frustrated and will want to hurt its parent/guardian. Israel needs to live up to its responsibilities before other parents step in to stop it hurting the human children it keeps herded in to its cattle-pen area called Gaza. There’s no place for bullies in our world, no matter how superior they consider they are.
