Brucha thanks for being a voice of reason.

hamas is a terrorist organization. full stop. they've murdered more palestinians than israelis and they've murdered A LOT of israelis.

they are 100% volunteer. In israel, military service is compulsory. yes there are bad apples in the IDF but that is an issue with every army in the world.

Thank you for all the work you do.

There are and have been Iranian spies spying for Iran and radical Islamists working inside Biden's Intelligence and DoD. The leader of the Biden team negotiating to empower Iran with a nuclear weapon, Rob Malley has been charged with mishandling classified information. Other Islamists include Ariane Tabatabai, (Iranian Agent in our intelligence and DoD) Hady Amr, and Maher Bitar, in intelligence for the White House. The US government funded a group that rolled up 17 spies for Israel who worked in Southern Lebanon. The US governments of Obama and Biden gave billions of dollars and a path to a nuclear weapon to Iran. Biden administration gave half a billion dollars to the PA.

This US government funded Iran which is the source of Hamas's weapons. The US government made sure that Israeli intelligence was neutered and that Israel was unable to prevent the attack.

This US government (Tony Blinken and the President) have gone to Israel to insist they will not help Israel unless Israel open a corridor for humanitarian aid to Gaza. But the only people inspecting the trucks will be Hamas. Under the guise of humanitarian aid, the US government is demanding that Hamas be allowed to re-supply so they can kill more Jews.

Also, despite the fact that Israel is being shelled from Hezb'allah, the US government said if Israel widens the war to include Hezb'allah, they will not help Israel.

Thus it is the US government that caused this war, paid for it, prevented Israeli Intelligence from preventing the war, and is at this time still acting to tie Israel's hands behind their backs, while telling Israel they are going to have to allow the terrorists to make a state living next door to them.

This US government tells lies. It is doing all in its power to destroy Israel. Obama is a radical Islamist. He put radical Islamists throughout the US federal bureaucracy. Obama and Biden's goals are

(1) to empower Iran with money and nuclear weapons

(2) to normalize Jew hatred

(3) destroy Netanyahu

(4) destroy Israel

(5) show the world that Islam is superior to Judaism and Christianity

(6) Have Islam re-conquer the land of Israel and all of Jerusalem.

Because these goals are traitorous and criminal, they lie. They point the finger at the Israeli government. They imply Israelis knew about the attack and did nothing. They portray the Palestinians as suffering and innocent. The Palestinians were up on their rooftops dancing and singing after the massacre. They were handing out candy to children. They were celebrating the worst atrocities in Israeli history. That is how the poor innocent suffering Palestinians were acting.

Don't accept the lies coming from this government as truth. This government hasn't spoken the truth about ANYTHING. Not about COVID, not about the vaccines, not about our southern border, not about Ukraine, not about Israel, not about our economy, not about the Palestinians, not about Iran, not about Islam, not about their own actions. Everything they say is a lie. That is the hard truth of being an American today.

You can criticize the Israeli government, and I am sure they will be looking into what happened, but don't use the Israeli government to cover up the destructiveness of the US government towards Israel.

I'm Canadian and I'm sorrowful to admit I believe you're completely correct. Such dark horrid days.

To Brenda Broley Cook,

Thank you for your comment. These are such dark days. From what we in America hear, life in Canada is as totalitarian now as it is in the US. There are some who light up the darkness in your country, who also light the darkness in ours. My husband's family is Canadian so I feel very sad about what Trudeau has done to your beautiful people and nation.

I would like to share a thought I just heard from Rabbi YY Jacobson. If Hamas would take a 3 year vacation and go to Hawaii, NOT ONE PALESTINIAN WOULD BE KILLED BY THE ISRAELIS, and all the Gazans would be left alone to live and let live. However, should the IDF would take a vacation, and go to Hawaii, not one Israeli would be left... Who are the murderers here???

Rabbi Smith's video is excellent. Many original insights or common sense point too seldom thought or spoken. It will shake assumptions and commonplaces, just like you do! Thank you!

My thoughts exactly; Attention Hamas Lovers:

I want to make sure that I am clear that your attempts to draw moral equivalence between the Israelis, and the semihumans of Hamas are not going to work on me. I’m not a morally illiterate dipshit like the people pushing that nonsense.

I want Hamas destroyed. I want them to pay. And I am entirely indifferent to any of their gripes, complaints or related bitching about how they ended up in their position, not least of which because their present condition is entirely and completely their own fault.

Kiss my ass. Don’t stop until victory, Israel. ~ Kurt Schlichter

I’m sorry for you. I cannot support genocide of the Palestinians by the Israeli government. This was a false flag allowed by the Israeli government, which does not care about anything but their own power. They don’t even care about their own people let alone any others. Please put the blame where it belongs. Again I am sorry for all of the innocent lives lost including both Jewish and Palestinian. 🙏🙏🙏

See my nearby comments. Would you likewise condemn Hamas’ genocidal efforts as well? I think it is only for lack of capacity relative to the IDF that hasn’t occurred.

You ask many great questions and points

Islam is a gnostic pagan construct. They use the lineage of prophets from the Jewish Christian faith but the only thing they have in common with us is their names, they have completely changed their message and significance.

They are the weapon the degenerate narcissistic psychopaths, AKA the elite’ will use to usher in their Neo Plato, New Republic, Tower of Babel, one world

As to why the ‘Jewish’ elite are sacrificing their own people, well we could spend a long evening discussing that.

In simple terms

That might be Jewish by heritage but not in faith

They get to have their cake and eat it. They get to ferment conflict and anger blamed on Jews, while simultaneously hiding behind it is anti semite. As their policies, vx, (I leave you to fill in the blanks) significantly kill Jewish people.

Growing up when someone asked a stupid question to an obvious answer, the well known response was ‘Is the Pope Catholic?” Of course, until now everyone knew the answer

In a similar vein are your Jewish leaders, Jewish? I don’t mean genetically

Therefore we should be careful about ‘other ing’ those we disagree with. The Apostle Paul before his Damascus Road conversion was & would be certainly be characterized as a terrorist by Christians of his day & a hero to the Romans, as he would by Hamas if he were in their employ today.

Not to say that individuals shouldn’t be held responsible and killed or punished for barbarous acts; they still are human & we humans have the capacity for barbarism as I noted AS has famously observed.

This input is a very volatile minefield, that needs to be carefully deconstructed to be truly understood.

Nonetheless, we need to be aware of this event, and the possible parameters.

The Globalists want a World War. This suffering will be exploited for this depopulation purpose. So if we see Taiwan and China or North Korea and South Korea next ... then martial law in western countries. Then the invasion from the open border. Then we will be sure the attack was Globalist. The hospital bombed globalist. The harder Israel appears to be on women and children in Gaza the more the optics produce hardening on either side. Who's purpose is that.

All faiths must show brotherhood and love and know that the satanists want otherwise. If there is a statistician that can list the military failures that allowed hamas in. Then add to that the fact these failures all occurred on the very day this horrific act took place. Over 6 hours. I recently read Hamas was funded by the US during Ararat to create a divide in Palestine. Not sure if anyone else saw that. Are they still a cia op? . I have long believed they want all faiths eliminated for their communist totalitarianism to work. (Then they put climate as the new faith and prop Greta as the false Messiah. She is an architecture not just for now. )

We with a God centered view answer to Another. And that provides us courage and Another perspective.. So how do we change the dialogue and perspective so the worst don't exploit us.

They want Israel eu britain Canada and US Taiwan Australia South Korea New Zealand. Vs Africa Arab counties Bric .. but then there is no winner just the technocrats.

peace is the real resistance but how do we achieve it. I bet proving how hamas is funded. What was the 6 billion to Iran. what was it used for. That had interesting timing. I am likely no comfort. if a humanitarian crisis occurs in gaza that will harden sides further and also propel next steps. That urgency needs to be avoided at all costs. I think it is in everyone's benefit. Hamas is not cooperating. If everyday Jewish people call for Mercy it will change the dialogue.

Whoa, what's up with this?

<i>"We're sorry we didn't send out a single helicopter to mow down the executioners. We still haven't come up with a good excuse for that one, but we said we're sorry, so don't be a jerk about it." </i> (Rabbi Chananya Weissman)

"Minutes after the rocket barrage from the Gaza Strip began, Lt. Col. (res.) A. was already en route to the south. In a special interview with Israel Hayom, he recalls the sea of terrorists he saw that had crossed into Israel..." (Israel Hayom, 13/oct/23)

"The IDF published footage of helicopter gunships striking Hamas terrorists as they streamed across the breached border from Gaza on October 7. The video shows missiles hitting cars, trucks, motorcycles and people on foot as pilots report hundreds of gunmen sweeping into Israel to attack nearby communities." (Times of Israel, 15/oct/23)

Yes, the Israeli defense and intelligence establishments have a lot to answer for. But right now we are doing national TRIAGE -- asking "why" and "how" are luxuries we don't have while still fighting to stay alive.

Rabbi Weissman made other rash accusations, which could have been avoided by a bit of cool-headed homework. He may have been trying to help, but only THE TRUTH is helpful. He needs to repent.

Until then, Israelis like me will have to consider him a liability rather than a support.

Hannah, I understand exactly how you feel. You wrote: “But right now we are doing national TRIAGE -- asking "why" and "how" are luxuries we don't have while still fighting to stay alive.

The thing is, Rabbi Weissman has actually done a tremendous amount of homework, and there’s lots of evidence for his accusations. He does live in Israel, and many Israelis agree with his conclusions. Most importantly: if he is correct, then asking “why” and “how” are not luxuries, but are critical immediately, because it means that every Israeli’s life is in the hands of people who are at best indifferent to their lives. Citizens need to be aware of this, because trusting the orders of such a government could be deadly, G-d forbid. Here are links to just some of his articles. Please note that by my including his links, it does not mean that I agree with every single thing he says in each article. Yet I do very much believe he’s gotten the general picture correct, and an Israeli Rabbi I trust highly is saying the same exact things as Rabbi Weissman is.

There’s another very important article of his that I want to include here but I couldn’t find the link, so if I get it, G-d willing I’ll update this comment with it.

Thank you Brucha for your gentle response. I looked at the linked articles, but my misgivings have only increased.

His group is reporting from the Shomron. Since I live in that region, I have some on-site knowledge that challenges those very alarming announcements.

In our area at least, we have had continual IDF protection - and now there is more, not less. There were mass arrests of Hamas leaders out here as a preemptive measure. There is no "evacuation" of Palestinian women and children from the villages around us, and no unusual traffic on the roads.

The video evidence claiming otherwise showed very light traffic, and no "caravan". The four taxis filmed here were too far away to see who was in them (these orange vans are used every day to ferry workers around). And that stretch of road was nowhere near the Allenby Crossing. The other "confirming reports" of this exodus were hearsay with no documentation.

With the video of armored vehicles "approaching Israel's border", the time and location are impossible to verify - and the source is clearly Arab. Why does Rabbi Weissman trust it?

I agree that the US is not our friend, and that US weapons (and money) are going to our enemies. I also agree that GOD is ultimately the only One we can trust, especially in this time of trouble.

But that doesn't mean Israeli leaders are fake Jews and evil partners with Hamas, or that they are working for the globalists who want all the Jews dead. R. Weissman is calling for us to "not listen" to our government (not report for IDF duty? declare a revolt?) - yet that is the tactic used recently by those who I consider the actual fifth column in Israel.

Here is a very different analysis of the massacre from another frum source, Daniel Greenfield, who doesn't deal with hearsay.

These two links do not deserve the mental energy to acknowledge them. Nor do you, for even suggesting it. Your comment comes from complete ignorance of the requirements for the Jewish Messiah, or Anointed One, which Jesus did not remotely fulfill. Before you make outrageous & ignorant claims you should educate yourself.
