Adolf Hitler’s Nazis, and descendants of Japan’s military dictatorship, might still be in power in Germany and Japan if the U.S. and the Allied coalition had conducted World War II in the way some people insist Israel should carry out its war against the terrorist group Hamas.
The calls for a cease-fire in Gaza – calls that have been echoed in Knoxville – began shortly after Israel’s response to the Oct. 7, 2023, surprise attack in which Hamas terrorists massacred 1,200 to 1,400 people. Savage sexual assaults occurred as well, according to the New York Times: “A Times investigation uncovered new details showing a pattern of rape, mutilation and extreme brutality against women in the attacks on Israel.”
Furthermore, Hamas has no intention of stopping its terrorist raids, report many sources, including MSNBC: ” ‘No place on our land’: Hamas official vows to repeat attacks on Israel ‘again and again’ until it’s destroyed.”
Casualty reports from Gaza fighting are eye-opening, with people killed in the tens of thousands; however, the figures are released by the Gaza Health Ministry – run by Hamas. Their accuracy is suspect, but people are indeed dying. It’s an ongoing tragedy.
