Addition: Israel has a right to defend itself. AND Israel has a right to win.
This from frontpagemag.com.
Comrade Kamala told CNN:
Israel has a right to defend itself.
And then she insisted:
[The] war must end.
What Comrade Kamala was really saying was that Israel has a right to defend itself against an attack, but it does not have a right to win.
And nothing has changed.
Obama said in 2014 before calling for a ceasefire:
Israel has a right to defend itself from rocket attacks.
Likewise, before urging a quick end to the fighting to make a deal with the terrorists against whom Israel was defending itself, Bush and Clinton each used to say:
Israel has a right to defend itself.
NOTE: Anything less than the assertion that Israel has a right to defend itself is a declaration that Israel deserves to be destroyed. And that is the state of the debate within the communist/globalist crime syndicate.
Each time the terrorists invade and kill Jews, the Israeli army is reminded they have the right to briefly defend their country before the politicians make a new deal with the terrorists.
But Israel does not need a right to defend itself.
Israel has a right to win.
The right to defend yourself is the right to be penned up in a ghetto while murderers roam outside. It is the right to spend billions of dollars on elaborate defenses like the Gaza border wall or the Iron Dome that, like any alarm system or wall, works only until the terrorists find a way around it.
[A mere right to defend itself] is the right to be constantly
hunted, to be always on the defensive, and always afraid.
This is no right at all. It is a wink and a nod and a warning, ‘Don’t go too far.’
The Nazis were not defeated with the right of defense, rather the right of offense. Wars do not end when the invaded are given a right to fight for a few weeks before calling it a draw. Wars end when one side actually has the power to do more than defend itself, but to fight back and win—to annihilate their opponent.
When Netanyahu spoke to Congress about “total victory,” the political establishment ridiculed and dismissed the prospect of defeating Hamas in favor of a deal with the terrorist group.
That deal, known as a ‘ceasefire’ after the cycle of ceasefires with Hamas initiated by Obama, would allow the genocidal Muslim Brotherhood Jihadists to regroup, rearm, and attack again.
Biden’s Deputy Secretary of State Kurt Campbell told a NATO summit:
In some respects, we are struggling over what the theory of victory is. Sometimes when we listen closely to Israeli leaders, they talk about mostly the idea of… a sweeping victory on the battlefield, total victory. I don’t think we believe that that is likely or possible.
What is the difference here:
The Obiden Regime and NATO leaders did not display this sort of skepticism towards Zelensky’s promises of victory against Russia. When the Ukrainian leader recently promised to present a “victory plan” to The Regime, the move was met with applause.
Ukraine has the right to win
while Israel only has the right to defend itself?
Ukraine’s demands for bigger and deadlier weapons systems, including tanks and jets, were swiftly met even while The Regime cut off or ‘slow walked’ more basic weapons deliveries to Israel to force it to slow down offensive operations including in Rafah.
Those pressure campaigns allowed Hamas
to hold on to and murder captured hostages.
This is what the “right to win” looks like as opposed to the paltry “right to defend itself.”
This is capricious illogic:
– Ukraine attacking a nuclear world power isn’t “escalation,” [but] Israel taking out a Hamas leader is,
– Ukraine has the right to do more than just throw back invading armies, [but] Israel’s rights are limited to defending and maintaining its 1948 borders, and
– When the Ukrainian leader recently promised to present a ‘victory plan’ to [The Regime] the move was met with applause, [but] terrorists attacking Israel will [earn them] ‘right to defend itself’ for a week or two, [then] it’ll be time for another ‘ceasefire,’ more negotiations, and more surrenders.
Comrade Kamala and her communist/globalist crime syndicate are dead wrong. Israel does not have a “right to defend itself.” Israel has a right and a duty:
– to go on the offensive and win,
– to utterly defeat and destroy every single Islamic terrorist organization at war with it, and
– to secure whatever territory the terrorists were using for their operations including the Philadelphi corridor on the border which Egypt used to deliver massive amounts of weapons to Hamas.
This will be the least of what winning means.
In 1948, 1967, and 1973, Israel undertook to win. In those first three decades, it won and emerged stronger for it. In the next terrible four decades, it lost land, ambition, and safety in a failed search for a peace that could never come on any terms other than its own strength.
Defense was traded for offense. Conflicts were managed. Deterrence was weakened.
That was Israel’s “right to defend itself.”
Netanyahu has pledged “total victory” over Hamas. And he emphasized:
No one will preach to me on this issue.
The right to defend itself is Israel’s slow suicide. Survival rests on the right to win.
God speed to Prime Minister Netanyahu and to the IDF.
