“Hatred is the madness of the heart.” ~Lord Byron
Few of us in the US comprehend the perilous milieu that the tiny State of Israel must endure each day … since its rebirth in 1948. Surrounded on all sides by less than cordial neighbors, many who strive to push the inhabitants of the Jewish State into the sea.
The numerous terrorist groups that have sprung up since 1948, have all but tag-teamed in a interminable string of terror attacks upon Jewish civilians in an apparent show of “love” for their neighbors.
Recently, the Israeli government, via the Transportation Ministry, began operating designated lines for Palestinians in the West Bank. These buses would be for “Palestinian” passengers ONLY.
So, why would Israel make such a decision? Well, it could be that from 1995-2012, there have been 40 bus bombings by “Palestinians” resulting in thousands of injuries and 435 fatalities of innocent Jewish men, women and children civilians.
That’s 435 innocent Jewish civilians on buses containing “Palestinians“. I’d say that’s a very good reason to keep certain buses restricted to “Palestinians“.
And yes, of course, the cries of racism began from the Palestinian Authority (PA). Interesting … because the PA, comprised of Hamas and Fatah … two terror groups …h ave made it unequivocal that they want NO Jews in PA-owned land. Abbas said, in 2010, “I will never allow a single Israeli to live among us on Palestinian land.” In Nazi Germany it was known as Judenrein (free of Jews).
Question: Since the PA has made it clear that they do not want Jews in the land they stole from Israel, what’s the problem with buses that meet their design? Shouldn’t they be pleased? So, why the fuss?
Well, you see … if there are no Jews on the buses, they have no reason to blow them up! When you remove the target, you remove their life’s goal.
This move by the Israeli government is one of national security. It’s a move to prevent more crimes against humanity committed by “Palestinians“, and should be applauded by all who care about peace.
The buses were a move for the cause of peace. And isn’t that what the “Palestinians” keep saying they want … or is it?
Shalom through strength…
