Below is MC’s latest report from his vantage point on the border with Gaza.
Justice? Or Lawfare?
by MC
We are all shocked at the barbarity of October 7th, I was there in a small way. But I am more shocked by the collusion of the world in turning the misfortune of a few Joooz into a political toolset.
Remember all those world leaders and other VIPs rushing to Israel, to Be’eri, to Sderot to shed their crocodile tears?
I was cynical at the time, counting down the days until they turned on us. And so they have.
For many years now, Islam has been the moving force in Europe. The endless greed to get our mitts on a small proportion of that Middle Eastern Oil Gelt has meant prostrating ourselves, bums in the air, to get our bit of the Sunni manna.
Jews have always been despised. I was thinking this morning of how William Shakespeare deals with his Shylock character in The Merchant of Venice, and particularly Portia’s lecture to him on the quality of mercy.
Antonio, the hero, is a stupid gambler who lucks out. He has borrowed money from Shylock, and has agreed to Shylock’s brutal ‘collections’ policy, and now Shylock wants to collect his “pound of flesh, closest to Antonio’s heart.”
Shylock is supposed to have mercy, but he also has a business to run. The end result is that Shylock gets shafted and Antonio gets away with defrauding the Jooo.
Shakespeare is manipulating the audience. He makes Antonio a nice guy and Shylock a greedy, malignant bully. The play tells us that it is OK to so twist law so that the hero wins against the nasty despised (but innocent) Jooo.
Antonio defaulted on his loan, and wriggled out of the consequences, leaving Shylock holding the debt and unable to collect. Shylock is depicted as the villain, and thus his rights can be violated at will. This is how oppression works.
Substitute the ‘poor Palestinians’ for Antonio and we get a modern day version of that same scenario. Israel (Shylock) is trying to ensure that Hamas (Antonio) cannot prosper from defaulting on the loan (Oct 7th). But Portia (the global community) supports Hamas and will use any device to ensure that Israel cannot rectify the failure to pay. Hamas is in default but wants to manipulate world opinion to shirk the consequences.
Was this shirking preplanned? I would guess that the Macrons and Bidens of this world don’t care. As puppets, they do and say as their masters dictate. Israel is a state that (sometimes) upholds God’s laws and has a very positive national identity, secure borders and a right-of-centre political view. And is thus despised.
It is only justice when the law is blind. We must like Antonio, but we have been taught to hate Shylock, so when Shylock seeks justice, he is deemed not eligible.
Shakespeare is clever: he entices us to support the unjust because our emotion goes with Antonio as the ‘hurt underdog’. We lose sight of Antonio’s greed, folly and stupidity; of his gambling when he cannot afford to lose; and we transfer our opprobrium to his victim who is ugly, angry and out of pocket…
Nothing much has changed since the Gutmenschen of Kiev took out their rage on their innocent victims at Babi Yar.
Ask yourself: Who are the real occupiers, settlers and crusaders?
Is it those Muslims pouring across open borders bringing their vile animalistic culture/religion with them, and expecting us to kowtow to their demands?
Our political masters want us to be ‘multicultural’ (divided), to be tolerant of religious bestiality in our midst. We are supposed to believe that all cultures are equally valid, and to thus despise our own culture in order to elevate the ‘other’.
It is now obvious that Oct 7th was to be a crusade, and given the evacuation of the Gaza peripheral communities, in some ways it worked. The strike paralyzed the IDF high command for some six to eight hours. During which time the Hamas ‘army’ could have taken some key IDF bases and cut Israel in half.
But the lure of nubile young flesh proved too much, and the looting, kidnapping, rape and murder were just too tempting.
