CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY OCTOBER 26, 2023
IT TOOK ONLY A LITTLE MORE THAN THREE WEEKS FOR THE SHIFT. AFTER ALMOST UNIVERSAL BACKING OF ISRAEL, WHICH WAS ATTACKED BY HAMAS TERRORISTS ON OCTOBER 7, WORLD OPINION IS STARTING TO SHIFT AGAINST THE JEWISH STATE. PREDICTABLY, PICTURES OF DEAD OR WOUNDED GAZANS ARE BEING PARADED BEFORE TV CAMERAS AND WEAK HEADS OF STATE ARE NOW CRITCIZING ISRAEL FOR “OVERREACTING.”
THESE PEOPLE SHOULD BE REMINDED OF THE FOLLOWING: ISRAEL GAVE FAIR WARNING THAT RETALIATION WAS COMING. IT TOLD GAZANS TO GET OUT OF THE WAY, BUT HAMAS BLOCKED THEIR ESCAPE BECAUSE THEY WANTED THEM KILLED SO THEY COULD ADVANCE THEIR AGENDA AGAINST ISRAEL.
ISRAEL IS AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE VICTIM. THE TERRORISTS CLAIM A RELIGIOUS MANDATE TO KILL JEWS. THE IDF RELEASED A RECORDING OF A MAN WHO SAID HE WAS CALLING HIS FATHER FROM A JEWISH WOMAN’S PHONE. HE BRAGGED HE HAD KILLED TEN JEWS. I’M STILL WAITING TO HEAR THE OUTRAGE ABOUT THAT.
SECRETARY OF STATE ANTHONY BLINKEN SAID AT THE U.N. ON MONDAY THE ONLY WAY TO PEACE IS A PALESTINIAN STATE. SURE, GIVE THEM MORE TERRITORY AND YOU’LL HAVE GAZA TIMES 100 AND ISRAEL WILL BE NO MORE. THE TERRORIST GOAL IS THE ELIMINATION OF ISRAEL AND JEWS, NOT PEACEFUL COEXISTENCE. I’M CAL THOMAS.
