Netanyahu: No Apology. No Responsibility

 

Better baptism.

Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones, chief woke officer at The New York Times, has been positively kvelling on X (formerly Twitter) over the number of marchers for “Palestine” in London and New York City who are of Jewish ancestry.  Ms. Wells, let me explain. When baptism isn’t an option, and neither is embracing Islam, the next best thing for apostate Jews and quislings is marching for “Palestine.” You can think of them as queers for conversion therapy or chickens for Colonel Sanders or Jewish Voice for Peace @jvplive or @IfNotNowOrg. 

While on the subject of the Times, I can report that the paper’s op-ed pages, at least in the international edition, are back to being Palestinian-occupied territory. There is a comfort in the familiar, I suppose.

Ramallah beckons

Hamas director of ecumenical and interfaith relations Ismail Haniyeh has a special message to his Jewish supporters concerned about the humanitarian situation in Gaza.

For all the talk of solidarity and high-level visits right after Black Saturday by Germany’s Olaf Scholz, the UK’s Rishi Sunak, and France’s Emmanuel Macron, when push comes to shove, Germany and the UK ‘abstained’ from backing Israel at the UN GA. France voted outright against Israel. So, let's do the math: 120 countries are maliciously anti-Israel; 14 stood with Israel, including the US, and 45 have no backbone and abstained... like people who see and hear a street mugging but roll down their Venetian blinds.

UK and Germany Abstain. France against Israel.

"I'm with them."

Last night saw the first news conference since Binyamin Netanyahu took office in December 2022. As anticipated, he changed the subject in response to the six or seven questions from Israeli reporters in Hebrew. In perhaps his only direct reply, he falsely asserted that it had never been his policy to boost Hamas to the detriment of the PLO. And he refused to apologize or take direct responsibility for Black Saturday. The wizard of bollocks had hoped that appearing with his nemesis DM Yoav Gallant and the well-meaning Blue and White Party leader Benny Gantz would inure him from looking guilty. It didn't. Meanwhile, Gallant and Ganz looked desperate for the entire charade to be over.

Portentously, Bibi glossed over the fact that he had freed practically the entire current Hamas leadership in Gaza, Turkey, and Qatar (link to list) in the Schalit deal. 

Now, I fear that under comparable public pressure, our weakest ever prime minister, encouraged by his overbearing wife, appears to be mulling freeing every Palestinian Arab convict in Israeli prisons with blood on their hands – up to and including the butchers who carried out the Black Saturday massacres - in return for most of the captives Hamas took. 

That would be a mistake of catastrophic proportions. 

Yet Bibi might try to ascribe the original Schalit deal to Ahad Ha'am, Ben-Gurion, or Yair Lapid, and say their mistakes forced him to do the latest prisoner exchange. 

You never know what a spineless serial liar will say. But you can be sure many of his bespelled followers will believe him.
