The Unhinged Among Us

Guest Post by Victor Davis Hanson

October 7 should have been an open-and-shut case of moral condemnation.

During peace and holiday, invading Hamas, gunmen murdered, tortured, mass raped, decapitated, and mutilated some 1,200 Israelis. The vast majority were unarmed women, children, infants, and the elderly.

The cowardly murderers proudly filmed their atrocities and then fled back to Gaza — to cheers from the Gaza street.

Before Israel even retaliated, the mass murder of Jews earned praise from the Middle East, the international hard left, and especially the faculty and students of elite Western campuses.

When the Israeli Defense Forces struck back, the killers dispersed to the safety of their multibillion-dollar subterranean cities. The cowardly elite architects of the mass murder fled to Arab sanctuaries in Lebanon and Qatar.

From its headquarters burrowed below hospitals, mosques, and schools, Hamas bartered hostages for a reprieve from the IDF and the release of its own convicted terrorists in Israeli jails.

Hamas shot any of its own supporters who refused to shield Hamas gunmen.

It continued launching rockets at Israeli civilian centers. It serially lied about its casualties, expropriating intended relief food and fuel for its underground tunnel city of killers.

Abroad, Hamas supporters also emulated the methods of the pro-Nazi demonstrators in Western cities of the 1930s. Unlike their pro-Israel critics, the pro-Hamas demonstrators in the U.S. and Europe turned violent.

They took over and defaced private and public property. They chanted genocidal antisemitic slogans calling for erasure of the nation of Israel.

They interrupted shoppers, blocked highways, attacked businesses, and swarmed bridges. They assaulted the police.

The majority wore masks to hide their identities in the fashion of antisemitic Klansmen.

Why did the doctrinaire left, the youth of the Democratic Party, and the campuses outdo each other in their antisemitic venom toward Israel?

For the first time in their lives, many of the ignorant protestors suddenly professed concern about refugees, colonialism, disproportionality, innocent civilians, and the rules of war.

But none could explain why the Palestinians who fled Israel in 1947-48 still self-identify as victimized “refugees” when 900,000 Jews ethnically cleansed from Middle-East Arab cities about the same time do not.

The 200,000 Greek Cypriots driven out from northern Cyprus by Turkey apparently do not warrant “refugee” status either.

Few protestors knew that Jews had lived in present-day Israel for over three millennia. The longest colonialist presence there was Muslim Turks, who brutally ran the Holy Land for 300 years until they lost in World War I and were expelled.

How exactly did the eighth-century A.D. Al-Aqsa Mosque happen to be built within King Herod’s earlier Second Temple enclosure?

The pro-Hamas crowd has little appreciation that colonizing Arab Muslims has one of history’s longest records of “settling” other countries far from their historic birthland.

They “settled” and “colonized” the Hellenistic, Roman, and Byzantine Middle East, Berber North Africa, and southern Spain. Millions of Middle Easterners migrated to — “settled?” — supposedly infidel European cities, where they often self-segregate and do not assimilate fully with their magnanimous hosts.

As far as “disproportionality,” it is the goal of every power at war, Hamas included.

What protestors are furious about is that Israel is more effective at being disproportionate in retaliation than Hamas and its Iranian supporters were in their preemptive mass murdering.

Targeting innocent civilians? Hamas is among the current greatest offenders in the world.

It rockets Israeli cities without warning. It mass murders Jews in their beds during peace. It exposes Gazans to mortal danger by impressing them as human shields. Hamas shoots those who refuse.

The “rules of war” are violated by Hamas daily. Such protocols require combatants to wear uniforms not to blend in with civilians, not to use them as shields, not to murder noncombatants, not to rape them, not to mutilate them, and not to execute civilians without trial.

Why, then, would millions ally themselves with this odious reincarnation of the SS?

Are they ignorant of the history of the Middle East?

Are they arrogant since few challenge their hate and threats?

Are they opportunists who feel mouthing anti-Western shibboleths gains them career traction in leftist-run media, academia, and popular culture?

Are they bullies who count on the Western silent majority to remain quiet as they disrupt lives, trash Western tolerant culture, and commit violence?

Like Hamas that they support, do they despise Jews? Why else do they express an existential hatred toward Israelis that they never display to any other group?

Those now on the street utter not a peep about the Sudanese Arab mass killers in Darfur, Chinese oppressors of the Muslim Uighurs, Russians targeting civilians in Ukraine, or ISIS, Syrian, and Yemeni murderers of fellow Muslims.

Yet all of these terrorist killers are guilty of the very charges the protestors falsely attribute to Israel. But they are all not Jewish — and that explains the pass given them by our antisemitic, pro-Hamas street.

I understand the anger some feel towards the Israelis. After all, why did they set up their country in this neighborhood? On the other hand, I feel zero sympathy for Muslims. They are nice, hospitable people when you are a welcome visitor and, in general, I wish them well, IN THEIR OWN COUNTRIES.

We do not need them in the West, period. These primitives raped, kidnapped, pillaged, conquered, and enslaved non-Muslims for centuries. Their mindset has not changed.

Israel is now in a box canyon from which there is no escape. Demography is destiny. It is unsustainable over the long run, as Richard Nixon recognized with a thumbs down when asked about its long-term future.

The really scary part is that the fanatics in Israel will not go down without a nuclear shoot-out at the Ok Corral.

Then take comfort my child, for nukes are not a real weapon. They are a paper gollum which has worked for over 70 years as a cudgel held over the world’s head which gives the rulers carte blanche to roll over anything that is in their way.

The detonation films? To a last one, were conventional and fuel air explosions, some triggered by induced lightning.
Yellowcake uranium powder suspended in an air column is extremely explosive, but with a triggered lightning strike, some fusion occurs, and te explosion power is magnified a bit.
They also fiddled with playback frame rates to create to illusion of enormity.
Added the washed out “bright flash” so you can never actually see moment of detonation.

All film processed in Hollywood at Lootout Mountain USAAF Station, Laurel Canyon, Hollywood California.

Mostly though? The yellowcake powder dumped from pumpkin bombs over dozens of Japanese cities merely behaved as a fire accelerant.
Still worked. Killed millions. Made millions homeless. Injured and maimed millions more.
Almost all? Civilians. Go TeamusA!

A man to admire.

BUT!!!

He lost standing with me when he echoed the party line on the Ukraine/Russia war. No mention of the Maiden coup with attendant atrocities against ethnic Russian Ukes, or the laws passed forbidding the Russian language in media etc. etc.

Now he’s spewing the party line in Palestine/israel.

This article is 100% Jew boy propaganda. The moral condemnation lies with the Jews where it has always laid.
The Jews have been committing genocide against the Palestinians for 70 years and until now have never been called on it. The Jews are worse than the Nazi’s and deserve the retribution that is coming to them. Israel is not going to survive this because their hatred will not allow them to stop the murder against the Palestinian people. They will continue with their war crimes, and crimes against humanity until the Arab countries rise up and destroy them, and the US will be powerless to do anything about it.

Israel got its sissy ass kicked on Oct. 7 when Hamas beat them in a stand up fight against their military bases, and they have been getting their asses kicked ever since. Their economy is collapsing as they try to keep 300K workers militarized and not working. They have displaced 70 K of their own people in the north as they ran away in fear of Hezbollah. Hezbollah has destroyed billions of dollars of Israel’s defensive radars and missile defense systems along the northern border, and could easily attack and occupy the north of Israel, if they chose to do so. Israel has lost hundreds of tanks and armored personnel carriers to Hamas fighters with RPG’s and sticky grenades who pop up out of tunnels and attack Israeli squads as they fumble to make their way through the ruins of the bombed buildings. This is the same situation as Stalingrad, and Israel is falling for it like the fools they are.
Turkey is sending 1000 ship flotilla of aid to Gaza in hopes the hate filled Jew bastards will attack it and give them the justification to attack Israel and to wipe in off the map.
Israel for all intent and purpose consists of about a half dozen cities, and the Arab countries could easily obliterate Israel in a matter of hours. It is looking more and more like that now is just a matter of time, and when it happens, the world will be better off.

I’m not sure how Israel got caught with their guard down. That is strange. But hamas got lucky and many of them were killed or captured. Israel has been kicking hamas goatfker ass ever since. W hichis why they almost immediately wanted a ceasefire. Israel’s economy is still strong (Much better than hamas’) So they evacuated northern Israel because of the threat of goatfkers attacking. But your claim of Hezbollah destroying Israeli infrastructure is conjecture or you’re quoting from your leftist Jew hating media sources. So if it’s so easy for the goatfkers to attack Israel and obliterate them, then what are they waiting for? From the river to the sea? Palestine can drink my pee And the world will be better off once Israel obliterates hamas Turkey (what a great name for them) won’t do shit unless they want their asses kicked too

VD tells only half the story to support his view. I guess that’s normal. Jews were not living there for thousands of years. Yeah, a few managed to stick around but it was mostly Arabs and actually a large minority of Christians, before many were run off by war.

They “settled” and “colonized” the Hellenistic, Roman, and Byzantine Middle East, Berber North Africa, and southern Spain. Millions of Middle Easterners migrated to — “settled?” — supposedly infidel European cities, where they often self-segregate and do not assimilate fully with their magnanimous hosts.

Millions of Jews migrated to Europe, too, where they often self-segregate and do not assimilate fully with their magnanimous hosts. Until they were literally kicked out of over 100 countries for bad behavior, not because they were Jews.

VD is the one who is unhinged.

After leaving Egypt, the Israelites spent the next forty years camping throughout the region, educating the locals on all the latest perversions while simultaneously infiltrating the country with sabatuers and traitors for when they at last had all the players in place, they went from kingdom to kingdom commiting genocides.

How do they infiltrate?
They prostitute their women

Of course, you have the whole story about Dinah too.
It is interesting you should mention Esther. Just seen a report them (jews official) saying how they had Esthered Saudi Arabia. Which explains a lot of things (remember that one SA that went on and on about how Israel should kill all the Palestinians?) and lends credence what I have been hearing for some time that the SA are crypto jews.
They do certainly use it as a weapon, and there is no doubt Jones was compromised by such, and even though he has come back more towards the truth, he will have that monkey on his back forever, being that some of his kids are jewish.

What a blowhard. The U.S.A. is the world’s No. 1 Terrorist Organization, without peer, destroying more lives and countries than anyone in history. Take Libya for example.

The average American has never had the benefits that Gaddafi brought to every Libyan citizen, so we compulsively destroyed that country and turned it into an open air child sex-slave market.

WE are responsible for their daily suffering so that our country’s avaricious sadists have no reason to explain why our middle class is being destroyed by government predation instead of being advanced with the kind of government support Gaddafi gave Libyans.

Before we bombed Libya into rubble in 2011, all Libyan s enjoyed:

Free education and guaranteed employment or a salary equivalent to their education;
Free health care;
Free electricity;
Zero interest loans;
Anyone wanting to farm gets free land with a house, equipment, livestock and seeds;
$50,000 marriage benefit;
$10,000 child benefit;
50% subsidy for a car…

…and that was just the baseline benefits. – now all gone.

What we get from our sclerotic Uncle Schlomo is 24/7/365 surveillance to suppress our freedom and the IRS’s tax-grubbing fists up everybody’s ass if they weren’t born into a political dynasty.

Victor Davis Hanson is nothing more than a parasitic academic with a hat full of hammers.

The way I see it, the masses will only go along with what entertains them (no matter how inhumane) for a small period under normal conditions, such as those in roman times.
In more recent times propaganda can extend the time people are entertained by horrific events by a large margin, such as it’s main introduction on the radio and then screen media following suit, during and after WW2.
Now the propaganda has been tested and refined to a point that something like 9-11 can last as a feasible entrenchment for the narrative for over 20 years. Almost 3000 lives lost. A similar disaster would only last 2 years at best in the roman times… just another plague

The liberal community has been intellectually bred to attack whatever is currently collapsing, right now that is Israel’s banking cabal. When you set up a system of parasites, it is the best irony when cannibalism happens.

But the point is that liberals, or more specifically those who profit off the welfare state, would root for Israel if the middle east looked to be the lesser moral candidate, such as the case post 9-11.

“If it paid better they would be fascists”

Every 2-3 years I come across this quote by Hans von Seeckt, who died in 1936 during the years of Nazi Germany
I keep thinking that it must have been quoted by someone else this century.

“What they are planning for us; sex, religion, money in the New World Order. Which is more corrupt? The liberal media or the multi-national corporations? Why truly big money wants your children to try drugs, even while they campaign to discourage these evils. How the brilliant scientists have come up with the proven methods to destroy your family. All you have to do is let your guard down.”

There is a war coming, but will it be a war between ruling mafias or a revolution of humanity against the mafias.

The “rules of war” are violated by Hamas daily. Such protocols require combatants to wear uniforms not to blend in with civilians, not to use them as shields, not to murder noncombatants, not to rape them, not to mutilate them, and not to execute civilians without trial.

What the investigation reveals is that “the Israeli army has files on the vast majority of potential targets in Gaza — including homes — which stipulate the number of civilians who are likely to be killed in an attack on a particular target. This number is calculated and known in advance to the army’s intelligence units, who also know shortly before carrying out an attack roughly how many civilians are certain to be killed.”

One source told them: “Nothing happens by accident. When a 3-year-old girl is killed in a home in Gaza, it’s because someone in the army decided it wasn’t a big deal for her to be killed — that it was a price worth paying in order to hit [another] target. We are not Hamas. These are not random rockets. Everything is intentional. We know exactly how much collateral damage there is in every home.”

Even more dystopian – and this might be a first in the history of warfare – a lot of the targets are identified by AI: for instance they “use of a system called ‘Habsora’ (‘The Gospel’), which is largely built on artificial intelligence and can ‘generate’ targets almost automatically at a rate that far exceeds what was previously possible. This AI system, as described by a former intelligence officer, essentially facilitates a ‘mass assassination factory.’

WOW, this might be THE most important piece of journalism on the war on Gaza since it began, by Israeli newspaper @972mag :https://t.co/ORhMha76B5

Essentially they confirm, with unimpeachable sourcing, that the killing of civilians was all calculated and intentional.

IOW, when TSHTF AI will first access the “TBP” file and then start launching drones our way.

“gunmen murdered, tortured, mass raped, decapitated, and mutilated some 1,200 Israelis. The vast majority were unarmed women, children, infants, and the elderly.”

Was that before or after they went to the moon?

Hanson, you are unhinged. You still think J6 was a riot of madmen trying to overthrow America (without weapons). Your so called brilliance has been destroyed. Not to mention you barely mention the “unhinged” response of Israel that wants (1) every Palestian dead and (2) the planet under an Atheist Zionist NWO.

All of the objections to this article are visceral and ad hominem. Commenters say Victor Davis Hanson is wrong without offering actual facts to challenge the numerous claims in this piece. One valid rebuttal might be that current Israel can’t claim land promised to jewish ancestors because jews in Israel are not jews but khazarians. Another reason could be that the bible is bullshit. But the commenters on this website do not have proof of those claims either. Prove that jews are khazarians and the bible is not true or you might believe bullshit also. Prove with facts and not emotions. Hanson wins so far. Now watch emotional antisemites call me a glowbot and vote down my real questions and observations.

Adam, you are simply too green and unformed to be part of our cyber-psyop initiatives and delicate narrative framing. Let your supervisor know I suggest you pack your bags and shlep over to the Lebanese front for practical experience. Set a good example. Send us a postcard. Shalom.

btw- cringe worthy playing an eternal victim card and employing ad hominem yourself. Respect, like dignity, is earned.

Would it do any good if we offered rebuttal like we have done ad nauseum? Would you actually look at the evidence? Anybody like Hanson who is still spouting off day 1 talking points, that have been almost all discredited (most especially the more extreme ones, by Israeli sources at that), has had almost 2 months to do due diligence, which means they don’t care what the truth is because they have a dogmatic agenda, or they are too emotionally invested or too stupid to care. Hanson is not stupid and doesn’t seem the emotional type, so it must be the former.

If you are really interested, here is a rather milktoast link to get you started. Keep in mind the one attempted beheading he talks about with a hoe, WAS first posted by an Israeli claiming it was a settler doing it to a Hamas corpse, which makes more sense (i.e. the hoe, and there was lots of other footage of disrespect to the dead, and probably not dead, Hamas), then claiming it was Hamas using a hoe to do it, so even it is suspect. But much of the “evidence” has been proved “fake” and withdrawn, like the lady laying on her stomach with her painties tore off was posted as early as 2022, and is likely from the Ukraine theater of war, though that isn’t even clear.
The Israeli have even claimed they have no evidence of rape because they somehow “lost” it all in the confusion.
If you really want to go into a deep dive, look at the work that The Grayzone (run by jews) or The Last American Vagabond have done, they have went through this whole thing with a fine tooth comb.
Of course, we also have the number of dead downgraded by 200 because the charred bodies of Hamas were included be mistake in those figures. Did Hamas burn themselves up along with the Israeli? No, the IDF and Israeli witnesses have admitted they killed Hamas and Israeli right along together in “a mass Hannibal” action. In other words, Hamas and the Israeli were charred (among other self inflicted casualty) from IDF. Even the one baby / child they used at first, was killed by IDF tank rounds, as per surviving witness testimony.
And too, every testimony we have from Israelis of interpersonal contact with Hamas, have said how respectively and professional Hamas were towards them.
You could fill books with all the real intel we have about oct 7, and just like 911, I’m sure there will be, because as bibi said, this was his 911, and no truer words were ever said, maybe the most true thing he has ever said.

Who wrote the bible? Did god write the bible? No. Why? Is god illiterate? The bible was written by jews. It is a rehash of older religious stories mostly from Egyptian worship of Horus. The so called prophets of the old testimate were criminals that engaged in every thing from murder, to slavery, to child rape and yet were somehow gods chosen people. It is all bullshit. The new testimate was also written by jews who after being exiled by the Romans decided they needed a way to control the Goy because the Goy were always going to be more powerful than the jews. They invented christianity, making the god of the Goy, the “king of the jews” and tying the salvation of the Goy to the preservation of the Jews. You would have to be a real fucking idiot incapable of critical thinking on any scale to believe any of this bullshit, and to be incapable of figuring out the jews angle in all of this. Of course these are the same idiots that allow their selves to be robbed by jewish banks and the usury they peddle, to believe the jew media, and be influenced jew hollywood. Who allow their government to be controlled by jew lobbyist who bribe your own government to work in the jews best interests and against the real Americans. So fuck you and your feeble attempt to ask for a false negative to PROVEN.
We are not all the idiots you think we are jewboy….. You days are now becoming numbered.

Why in the fuck are we involved in this squabble between Jews and Moslems? Anyone who says it’s a sin to eat pork is a piece of shit IMHO so why should we care? I say let them destroy each other and stay the hell out of it.

Umm… Two words. Hannibal directive. Israeli tanks and helicopters killed alot if not most of those who died that day. And yes they filmed taking hostages and killing people, that’s war. See any of them. But rape and killing babies is a stretch. There are only claims no video evidence of that.
