It has been a difficult few of weeks for my people. Stabbings, Shootings, Beatings. Babies in car-seats hammered by stone and sliced by glass and steel. It is far from over.
The perpetrators name their children after murderers of innocents. They spit on, and laugh at the wounded. They wheedle their excuses to the English-speaking world, and roar in prideful blood-lust to their own.
The government response is schizophrenic at best. Often, it emboldens the savages and bares the innocent to them. More worried about how they are perceived by that smug imbecile in the White House, the pompous EU, or their leftist domestic press, than the mounting toll of maiming and death borne by their own people, they vacillate.
The powerful and influential abroad declare moral-equivalence between attacker and victim. Mostly, the world looks away.
Yishmael and Edom, working in tandem.
Jewish blood, as always, is cheap.
Well, Hashem makes difficult lessons for us, but nothing we cannot withstand, learn from, or surmount. Nothing. Nothing.
Am Yisrael Chai.

And this (Hashem’s blessings and the Torah) is what kept our fathers and what keeps us surviving. For, not only one arose and tried to destroy us, rather in every generation they try to destroy us, and Hashem saves us from their hands.
After three weeks, a tiny glimmer of hope from the “leaders” (and yes, I bristle at the term “licensed”, just like you): http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/201569 Of course, the Israeli edition of Isvestia pauses licking out the PLO’s chamber pot, to flip out: http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/.premium-1.679383
And yes the world media, the current regime and the UN presents it all as tit for tat. You are again, correct. Jewish blood is much to easy to have. The cost of it needs to rise, it needs and must become VERY VERY dear. Both to those elected to govern and to those that would spill it. The purchase price to spill Jewish blood needs to rise to such a level that no one desires to pay the price to see it run in the street.
