As Pro-Palestinian Flotilla Heads to Gaza, Israel Should Counter by Sending Survivors, Hostage Families and Border Residents
(Ynet News) Ben-Dror Yemini - Greetings to all those sailing on the flotilla to Gaza. We are convinced that if you truly knew the reality, the honest among you would join protests against the Islamo-Nazism that threatens you just as much as it threatens us. Hamas broadcasts have aired explicit calls "to kill all Jews and Christians to the last one." On Hamas's children's television programs, they repeatedly teach - sometimes through a Mickey Mouse lookalike - that their ultimate vision is "the extermination of all Jews." Israel is not committing genocide; Israel is trying to prevent the genocide Hamas openly declares. Fathi Hammad, a senior Hamas leader, admitted: "We use women and children as human shields." Ismail Haniyeh, Hamas's former leader, said: "We need the blood of women, children and the elderly." These are Hamas's stated policies. Israel regrets deeply that civilians are harmed - but they are harmed because of Hamas, not Israel. Hamas and other jihadist groups represent Islamist imperialism that murders primarily Muslims who refuse to submit to its rule. Their vision is to impose strict sharia-based laws, which allow the total erasure of basic human rights. They themselves say, "raise the flag of Islam over the Vatican" while destroying Christianity and Christians worldwide. Is that truly the cause you want to help? Survivors of the Nova music festival massacre, residents from Gaza border communities, families of hostages, and freed hostages should board Israeli boats to meet the flotilla, armed with their personal stories.
