As information comes out about the pogrom/atrocities/murders/slaughters I am filled with rage, alternating with anger, alternating with sorrow, alternating with exhaustion. So hopefully you will forgive what’s probably going to be a more disjointed that usual column. But I have to. I just do.
Part of the anger comes from watching the response of the world. The same countries that in the UN condemn Israel for nothing, now have their buildings lit up with blue and white. Yay you. Let’s see how long it lasts. Before long, the media will begin their inevitable spin. I’ve heard some already, there were no decapitated babies and children. Yeah? About 40 of them, Kfar Aza. It is unusual for the IDF to allow journalists access to such a site, and in one report I saw there was still active fighting going in parts of Kfar Aza. I did an image search on Freespoke, and it looks like many of the captions were in French. Which may account for when the muslims in France rioted in the last couple days the French police put it down hard and quick. Maybe the French are catching on to what happens, I dunno. But journalists that were there DO have photographic proof, the MSM is refusing to air it. The MSM just blathers on about “unconfirmed” “no proof”. Yeah, yeah, there is you deceptive sewer scum. That was the point of the IDF letting them in. As in WWII, when Omar Bradley said:
“It is the desire of the Theater Commander that both still and moving pictures be utilized to the fullest extent practicable as exhibits in reports of investigations of war crimes committed by the Nazis with particular reference to Allied prisoners of war both in and out of camps and to concentration camps for the purpose of recording for civilization the history of horror written by over five years of German atrocities.”
“I visited every nook and cranny of the camp because I felt it my duty to be in a position from then on to testify at first hand about these things in case there ever grew up at home the belief or assumption that `the stories of Nazi brutality were just propaganda.’ Some members of the visiting party were unable to through the ordeal. I not only did so but as soon as I returned to Patton’s headquarters that evening I sent communications to both Washington and London, urging the two governments to send instantly to Germany a random group of newspaper editors and representative groups from the national legislatures. I felt that the evidence should be immediately placed before the American and British publics in a fashion that would leave no room for cynical doubt.”
The nazis tried to hide their crimes, hamass livestreams theirs. They’re proud of what they’re doing. They expect the world to rejoice with them.
For now, this wiki article on the Kfar Aza seems to be fairly accurate. One report I heard said many of the dead that were killed initially were the more right wing that had guns and were trying to protect the more naive who didn’t own guns. Kibbutz Be’eri is a kibbutz located in the Gaza periphery since 1946. Its members are generally on the secular left, and it includes many peace activists. There were 250 people living there before, not sure how many are left, many are dead, some have been taken hostage.
See, it’s hard to know the actual numbers of the dead. You aren’t “dead” until your body is given a number. And some of the bodies are hard to get to, even though they can be seen. Some of the rooms in the Kibbutzim have been booby trapped. As have the bodies, where grenades have been placed inside the bodies. So in some of these places you have to have sappers come clear things before you can get the body, and then you can give it a number. This is part of why the death toll is rising slowly.
Happily this was not the way it turned out in every Kibbutz though. From a message on my Zehut group,
As I type this, Hezbollah terrorists have begun entering Israeli air spacewith gliders from Lebanon. God help them. IDF has deployed over 10K troops to the north. Like I said to MPs, I’m afraid of full scale incursion from Lebanon will occur as soon as the IDF begins its ground invasion of Gaza.
Meanwhile, the Israeli government has suspended it’s gun control policies indefinitely and began issuing permits to all applicants who are Israeli citizens and not Islamic.
On Saturday, female Israeli citizen Inbal Lieberman of Kibbutz Nir Am killed six Hamas terrorists with her AR-15 by herself, and organized her kibbutz residents to fight. They turned the kibbutz into a fortress as she issued weapons and in total killed a dozen Muslims. Because of this incident, Israel is going full 2A.
US Special Forces have now arrived in Israel, probably to coordinate rescue of US citizens kidnapped by Hamas. Pray.
I mentioned in my previous column that Itamar Ben-Gvir has dropped mountains of gun control laws and is arming citizens. Had they done this years ago as Rabbi Kahane suggested (every Jew a .22) , as Moshe Feiglin suggested this might not have happened. But who knows? I don’t have a crystal ball.
Apparently former PM Naftali Bennett is wising up. Bennett to govt: Give Israeli towns and cities guns now
Former PM says it was armed local groups of citizens who were the most successful in fighting off Hamas invaders on Saturday.
Yeah, I’m sure that’s true. But I doubt Francistan or Germany will pay attention. Till it’s too late anyway.
And about the US Special Forces arriving to rescue US citizens. Perhaps I should just point out, for Americans hoping their government will get them out…..
“While Poland, Hungary, Brazil, Romania, and other countries sent planes to bring their citizens home from the war zone, our government told us to fend for ourselves,” wrote Yitz Friedman.
And as long as I’m whinging about the US government, I understand Winkin (Lloyd Austin) Blinkin (Blinken) are already in Israel. The only one missing is Nod (Beijing Biden). My hunch and fear is they are not there to support Israel, they are there to rein Israel in. After a discrete period of time, of course. Say, oh, about 3 days? Maybe less. See the Xiden junta is allied with China, China gave Beijing Biden lots and lots of money. And Beijing is backing the terrorists.
CCP Is ‘Fully Supporting’ Palestinians Amid Israel-Hamas War
The Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) reaction to the deadly attack on Israel by the Hamas terrorists revealed that it’s on the side of Palestine, according to Gordan Chang, author of “The Coming Collapse of China” and “China Is Going to War.”
On Sunday, China’s foreign ministry issued its first statement, expressing its deep concerns about the “escalation of tensions and violence between Palestine and Israel.” Without naming Hamas, the ministry’s spokesperson urged “relevant parties” to “remain calm, exercise restraint, and immediately end the hostilities.”
How’s about “HELL NO”. How do you remain calm among decapitated babies and children? Dead mothers with their unborn children cut out of them and the bodies left laying the the umbilical cord hooking them together? With abducted children, women, elderly? One hamass terrorist that was caught very freely admitted when asked why they kidnapped women and children, they aren’t soldiers after all, it was to rape them.
I wrote about some of the atrocities committed by the arabs in Huwara not long ago, the arabs there kill Jews almost any chance they get. They aren’t really afraid of the IDF you see, the IDF, like the American military is mostly controlled at the top by a leftist mentality. Or the lack thereof. You know who the arabs in Huwara are afraid of? The Jews in nearby cities. Those aren’t leftist Jews living in Judea and Samaria on the whole. Of course the UN was outraged by the arab attacks against innocent Jews driving on the road in their car, or in the town. Oh, sorry, my mistake. UN lashes Israel for Huwara settler violence after terror shooting
Nope, the UN was dead silent about the murder of Jews. But the Israelis in nearby towns had flat had enough. Which is partly why I don’t expect the support from “the world” to last too long.
So what brings up Huwara again? In my previous column there was a video clip of an elderly woman that has been kidnapped by hamass making a “Victory” sign as an hamass dropping stood next to her. Well, her image showed up in an ad for pizza in Huwara as they celebrate the massacre of the Jews.
These creatures are sub-animal.
But this time, this time I have something delightful for you, really!!
The Honenu legal aid organization sent an urgent letter to the IDF asking the shop be shut down. The owner had been in legal trouble before,several years before he had seriously injured a boy from Yitzhar with a rock, but was released due to lack of evidence.
You won’t have time for popcorn, but this is delightful none the less. This is the IDF destroying the store. Not a room, not just the window. The store.
You know, if the IDF had been this hard line years ago…..but again, look at who top leadership are. For now, I’ll just savor.
In America, the left is showing their true colors. For those parents who have sacrificed to send their little darlings to a “good university” here’s what you sacrifice has gotten you.
Death count is up over 1,000 now and that’s not even counting the wounded or the hostages. Last I heard it was around 1,300.

Hamas calls for global ‘mobilization’ on Oct. 13
An official statement from the Hamas terrorist organization and comments from a former Hamas leader—both calling for global mobilization against Israel this Friday, Oct. 13—are raising alarm at Jewish organizations and among those who monitor the Middle East.
“The real threat here is that there is no way of knowing who, if anyone, will take up the call or if there are pre-planned actions already staged elsewhere in the world just waiting for the greenlight,” according to James Carafano, a fellow at the Heritage Foundation and senior counselor to its president.
Boy, I’m sure glad we don’t have any of those peaceful falestinians in America! And the ones we do have the obiden junta can keep an eye on them!
But the shop former shop in Huwara may not be the only place that is finally going to earn the results it deserves. For all those leftists such as BLM and antifa that have rampaged with no consequences, thought that they could do anything without consequences, perhaps something is changing.
Elon Musk refuse to let BLM off the hook when they attempted to backtrack ‘Your Position Is Clear’: Musk Responds to Black Lives Matter Pro-Palestine Posts After Hamas Attacks
But some of the future BLM/antifa jihadi students are beginning to re-think their signing of a petition blaming Israel for all the dead Jewish families. Not because they object to the atrocities you understand, oh no, not that. But because it could affect their future job opportunities…The suffering of others and compassion for them doesn’t exist on the left.
The backtracking is all about jobs. People want to know who these students are so that they won’t hire them.
Hedge fund manager Bill Ackman is calling on Harvard to release the names of students in the groups that signed the pro-terror statement so that employers do not “inadvertently” hire them in the future. https://t.co/Xx5un4zbmY

And this “Harvard Law Student” obviously is deeply, deeply concerned about the people that were trapped in the “safe rooms” of their houses hearing their neighbors slaughtered and could do nothing, the families that were wiped out because they were Jewish. See, some of those black and brown people BLM is always yammering on about protecting and caring about? Well, some of those black and brown people in Israel were Jewish. Black and brown people killed by arabs. And BLM supports their killers. But back to my point about the Harvard law student, it seems some CEOs not being mush headed college students and looking at the letters the aforementioned mush headed college students signed blaming Israel for hamass attacking them. And decided “Nope, nopitty nope nope. Not hiring these immoral and amoral thugs”. So what distresses Harvard law student? Not the suffering of the victims, nope the “harassment” by CEOs wanting to know who signed the letter because they don’t want to hire them. Wow.
And what are the future terrorist falestinian children learning in school? Oh, same thing.
Jack Engelhard has a good column up on why hamass did it. Why did Hamas start a war they knew they would lose?
Simply, they put no value on human life, not for others and not for themselves. They are a death cult.
It’s reminiscent of Golda Meir.
The Jews are concerned about life, even the abandoned dogs in the south.
And the Orthodox Jews of Chabad showing up in war zones to cheer and encourage the Israeli soldiers. I’d say they succeeded. I adore this clip! Adore it!!
But I want to basically end with looking further back in Israeli history that Golda, I want to look back to King David.

And last from Tamar’s post about & ‘ !
Think like a true, proud, and HEALTHY Jew. Ask yourself, what would G-d’s beloved King David do if he were facing enemies committing these atrocities against Israel? We know what the answer correct answer is:’Eat them for lunch, before they eat YOU for dinner.”King David would never kick the can down the road regarding a terror entity and the slaughtering of his citizens. As a ‘just’ king, he would never tolerate decades of murderous attacks against his people. King David wouldn’t try to ‘contain’ the terror, or ‘manage it’ as our leadership has done for decades. No. We all know what King David would do.
As he wrote in Psalm 18:
*verse 38) I will pursue my enemies and overtake them, never turning back until they are consumed.*
*v39) I will crush them so that they cannot rise; yea, until they have fallen under my feet.*
*v40) For You have girded me with strength for the battle; You have subdued under me, those that rose up against me.*
*v41) And of my enemies, You have given me the back of their necks; those that hate me, that I may cut them off.*
As for many of us lately living in a state of fear,…folks, *switch your thinking, and make THEM, afraid of US!*
! And let’s do what King David would do – eliminate these monsters once and for all!
I’ve been asked by people how can they help. So I’ll give you some different choices.
This page has links to several different well known Israeli aid groups.
Chabad is always there helping in any way they can.

Veafilu Behastara—Even when he seems hidden, he is with us.
And Kol Haolam Kulo–The quote is from Rabbi Nachman of Breslov. “All the world is a narrow bridge and the most important thing is to not be afraid.”
The visitors from Chabad showed the power of song to inspire and encourage, I will attempt to do the same. The big mercy is I’m not the one singing it to you.
Be well, Shabbat Shalom a bit early.
