What we’re seeing happening in Israel is the manifestation of a deadly weakness infecting modern Western civilization. We have forgotten how to defeat the barbarians. Not make peace with them. Not come to a compromise with them. Not live with them, at least until they build up their strength to go on yet another mass murder and rape spree. To defeat them. To crush them. To break the will of our enemies such that they can no longer be our enemies. This is a huge problem with the modern Western mindset, and it’s mind-boggling that we haven’t learned this lesson yet.
The war in Gaza is still dragging on and, entirely predictably, Israel is losing the support of the West. That’s because the West, as feminized and stupid as it has become, has lost the capacity to actually defeat its enemies. On October 7, 2023, Hamas, with the eager support of the degraded Palestinian people, launched an invasion of Israel that ended up murdering, maiming, and raping well over 1000 people and taking many hostages. It was the result of a delusion, including the delusion that people who tell you nothing but that they want you dead are lying to you.
Do not overlook the fact that the victims living next to Gaza were largely leftists who lived the fantasy that the Palestinians were normal people just waiting to be friends, and if Israel would only be nicer, there would be flowers and sunshine. Instead, the monsters the leftists anthropomorphized tortured, abused, and butchered the very people offering them hugs and friendship. Naturally, leftists around the world learned nothing; in the face of such monstrous evil, sometimes you have to desperately hold onto your illusions or you have nothing left.
On October 8th, Israel should have annihilated Hamas. That’s the only proper response to barbarism. Israel should’ve written off the hostages; failing to do so only ensured more hostage-taking in the future. It should have initiated a siege of Gaza, a real siege, not the game of footsie where they left the power and the water on and handed over food for the people of Gaza, food that was, of course, stolen by Hamas and used to fund its operations. If the West was serious, and Israel is part of the West, the siege would have been an actual siege. It should have been followed by a ruthless, relentless campaign to seek and destroy every single member of Hamas.
