The UK Has Emboldened the Enemies of Humanity

(Spiked-UK) Brendan O'Neill - The idea that decreeing that a State of Palestine should exist assists peace - by giving an army of antisemites what it wants less than two years after it slaughtered more Jews in one day than anyone else since the Nazis - is preposterous. In truth, it emboldens the enemies of humanity, the neo-medieval murderers of Hamas and their allies in the regressive Islamist project, by telling them that butchery works. Mass murder brings benefits. Rape a Jew, get a nation. This isn't about whether we think there should be a Palestinian state in the future. It's about the fact that, right now, a bloody war is raging between the Jewish nation and the Jews' enemies, and what our leaders do and say in that moment really matters. To shame and ridicule an ally as it fights an existential war against the racist militia that invaded its lands and killed its people - what an ignominious new low in British foreign policy. Violent Islamism is a menace across Europe. Anything that appeases these dreamers of a Caliphate, these soldiers of bigotry who long to punish "infidels," is a calamity for the West, too. To advertise one's penchant for appeasement in an era of profound moral and physical conflict is a folly of incalculable proportions.
