Thank goodness

 If we learn anything from history, we must take our enemies at their word.  We must learn from history, and not as way too many Republicans insist, ignore history because somehow its truths upset some. We must not hide from history as way too many Republicans insist, because the facts it forces us to recall and remember, and doing so causes us to feel some kind of shame.

“You know, there are moments in this life — and I mean this literally — when the pure, unadulterated evil is unleashed on this world.

The people of Israel lived through one such moment this weekend.  The bloody hands of the terrorist organization Hamas — a group whose stated purpose for being is to kill Jews. This was an act of sheer evil.”-President Joe Biden.

 

DO NOT TELL ME, that Hamas was doing this for a free Palestine. DO NOT TELL ME, that Hamas is no different than ISIS or the Taliban.

“Parents butchered using their bodies to try to protect their children. 

Stomach-turning reports of being — babies being killed.

Entire families slain.

Young people massacred while attending a musical festival to celebrate peace — to celebrate peace.

Women raped, assaulted, paraded as trophies.” -President Joe Biden.

 

Thank goodness  DONALD TRUMP is not sitting in the Oval Office, sharing top secrets with enemies. Thank goodness, Donald TRUMP is not sitting in the Oval Office, claiming he is the best friend of Jews, but not Liberal Jews. Thank goodness, Donald Trump is not the President of the United States.

“This is terrorism.

But sadly, for the Jewish people, it’s not new.

This attack has brought to the surface painful memories and the scars left by a millennia of antisemitism and genocide of the Jewish people.”
