Today opens with a look at the call from the leader of Hamas for a day of Jihad and it seems woefully lacking where I live. Not that I am complaining. But I wonder if the atrocities committed by Hamas have changed the typical lather-rinse-repeat narrative that usually follows? As a microcosm of this, we see these college students who thought it would be cool and woke and progressive to side with Hamas and blame Israel. Now that they are seeing the consequences, they are begging for mercy.
In some ways, there is a distinct parallel to Islamists and Wokeism. They both look to crush/cancel their enemies, they live in a world of self-righteous superiority and when they find themselves in trouble, suddenly beg for a cease fire. But, they don’t want a cease fire because of a change of heart. They just want to regroup, then look to attack/cancel once again.
But, thanks to the stark brutality and the parades of joy others have thrown as a result, there are sub-sections within the Left who are wondering if they have aligned with the correct people. NBC News says the White House has been shaken to its core. Soft on Iran thinking from Antony Blinken to Rob Malley and others have led us to this moment in time.
Now, Victor Davis Hanson wonders, “How will the world react to Gaza?” Much like what he thinks, I believe we will see a shift, even if the elites around the world return to their old playbook of “ending the cycle of violence” or “proportionality”, I don’t think Israel will listen until they have finished the job of eradicating Hamas in it’s entirety.
For the sympathizers out there, worried about innocent Palestinians, I have a sound bite of several K-12 students being interviewed about their views of Israel and the Jews. As I said earlier this week, you don’t have to pull the trigger to be a terrorist. I immediately follow with the sad story of a father who lost his 8 year old daughter, but he expressed joy that she had been killed rather than taken to Gaza as a hostage.
There are some calling to expel Illhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib from Congress. No! Leave them to keep spewing their vile rhetoric. Let it be an example of what the Left now considers an acceptable part of their party. The same can be said for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Their utter ignorance and equivocation need to be shown to the rest of the country.
I then play a bite from when Donald Trump addressed the United Nations. It’s amazing what clarity someone has who lives in Realville versus the La La Land of the Left.
By the way, why does no one seem curious enough to ask why no other neighboring Arab countries want to take in an Palestinian refugees? Why do they have walls? Seems like there is a reason fellow Arabs want nothing to do with them. Even CNN”s Jake Tapper wondered why this is the case?
On a positive, someone rented a billboard box truck and is driving all around the Harvard campus reminding everyone of the names of those who sided with Hamas. Once again, cancel culture has come full circle and now the snake is eating it’s own tail.
To conclude, we get a brand new installment of Deep Thoughts with VP Kamala Harris. She never fails to deliver cringe-worthy drivel and stupidity.
