Hamas Starves Jews and Palestinians, and Israel Gets Blamed
(Wall Street Journal) Gerard Baker - As Israel faces a blitzkrieg of international condemnation again, it is important to remember that in the war between the Jewish state and its enemies in Gaza, one side is deliberately starving innocent people to the point of emaciation. One side irrevocably denies the right of its adversary to exist. One side would, if it could, conduct a genocide against the other, wiping every last remnant off the face of the planet. That side isn't Israel. What is so sickening about the deafening chorus of condemnation Israel receives for its war effort is that it is so far from the underlying moral truth of this war. Israel is the side that wants lasting peace and security. Its enemies want a state of permanent and existential war and suffering for the innocents.
