If I forget thee, O Jerusalem… (Psalm 137)

It is the great moral disorder of our time.

Dear Israel is but a spit of earth on a huge globe. Three years after six million Jews were put to torture, humiliation, whippings, rape, medical experiment, starvation, and vile death, was it not surely time — time for all the nations of the Earth who had reached some moral understanding of life and government — to allow Jewish people time to rest, time to mourn, time to see what and who might be left of them.

To find just one period, just one time, just one place where and when they did not have to start up in the middle of the night when unfamiliar sounds disturbed, did not have to hear demagogues howling at them from street corners, or put up with the trendy, ignorant western pseudo-radicals shouting in bullhorns from library steps. To not see their shops and homes targets of mobs and slanders, their synagogues battered.

A time when they might gather on a bit of land where dogs were not set upon them; where children did not mock them; where passerby thugs did not attack their elders in the street; where Jews unique in their sorrow and pain could meet with some of their tormented doubles, if for nothing else but to share laments and profound griefs, generate solace by shared company and memory.

Ah, Jews. Ah, Israel."

Rex Murphy: Hatred of Israel is the great moral disorder of our time

If only the Jews hadn't done this and worse to the people already living on that tiny sliver of land.

What a waste of sympathy.

- Does a disagreement, or less than absolute agreement with all policies and/or actions of the state of Israel amount to "hate of Israel"?

- Is universal morality conditional on or/and requires absolute and unconditional support of every policy and political platform of Israel?

- Do we really need more of religion-pumped and inflated pseudo-moral crusades? Hasn't the past taught us anything?

Doesn't look like it with the ever lasting hate of Isreal by the left wing.

Left wing??

I think Israel is feeding the hate...world wide regardless of politics. Many countries disagree with Israeli tactics.

Even the United Nations "General Assembly Overwhelmingly Adopts Historic Text Demanding Israel End Its Unlawful Presence, Policies in Occupied Palestinian Territory .."

Now Israel and hamas is accused of war crimes

I think behind the scenes many are happy that Israel is taking out this murderous group. Yes everyone feels for the innocent. Wars suck. Imo this is the only way to a peaceful solution to the ME. But I will say the illegal settlements issue needs to be addressed firmly.

The hate has always been there, and i pretty sure Israel really does not give a rats ass what the other countries say or do...

I also very sure nobody really gives a rats ass what the UN has to say about anything...not since UNRWA had members take part in the raid into Israel and took hostages, are responsible for teaching HAMAS propaganda in their schools...Ya i don't think Israel really cares what they say....UN is run by third world dictators...

The U.N. and its associated organizations have a long history of anti-semitism and anti Israel resolutions.  Everything they do is automatically anti Israel and has no credibility.

I think it is being addressed right now, GAza lays in ruins for the most part, and winter is coming, and it is only going to get worse....UN and the rest of the globe is not going to rebuild gaza....Israel is going to and it won't be for the palestinians it will be for Israelis....then there will be peace...

As they should not. Jews have been historical scapegoats. No matter what they do, some people will hate them. 

I am enjoying Israel sticking up the middle finger to the World, after so many years of Jews trying to "do the right thing."

The problem with the UN is that every country has an equal vote. There was dozens of Muslim countries and only one Jewish country. In addition to that, the Arab countries often put pressure on European countries to vote a certain way since they have oil, and most now have a significant Islamic population.

Gaza use to be a beautiful place,before the PLO took over and the rest is history...As long as the palestinian people are there there is not going to be peace, just to much hate...other Muslims countries don't want them, many have already fought conflicts against them to throw them out...Egypt, Jordan, etc...

  1. What do you think Iran's goal for that region is?
  2. What do you think Hezbollah's goal for that region is?
  3. What do you think Hamas's goal for that region is?
  4. By your own guesstimate, what percent of Jews in Israel would have to die for those guys to be happy? Would 100% be too many for them?
  5. How old do you think the average Palestinian is before they are groomed to kill Israelis?
  6. How do you think these people, who see red when they think about Palestinian partition, feel when they think about Pakistani partition, which was easily 1,000x as bad? Do they get 1,000x as mad, equally mad, or are they A-ok with it? 

I know that you don't know the answers to those questions, and/or that you don't want to know. 

I know that you put a lot of stock in the things that people like Ilhan Omar say. You probably quote her to the little 5.5 at the local coffee shop, hoping that one day your wokeness can get you a cookie.

I've no intent of worshiping any idols, including any one state, ideology, religion etc. That is very simple: observe, think, decide for yourself. You have the eyes and the brain. They exist for a reason. No fetishes. And no idols.

And I think those who pretend or insist on that may have a bit more more intelligence than a dead rock or naivety than a newborn and so it has to be that: lying. See it for what it is. The eyes and brain evolved, in billions of years, for a reason.

If it's you or them, the truth is equidistant

In criminal justice, there's also a long trend in many cases of the left putting their sympathies more behind the criminal than the victims.

Very correct, as they have demonstrated over the decades.

While some do not care about UN resolutions, they are quick to accept UN assistance, funding and care when offered.

Well the rest of the globe has not exactly been caring about Israel and all the issues they have faced , there are a few exceptions the US being one of them...

Why does Canada feel the need to care about any UN resolutions, what benefit do we get out of being part of this organization, i mean over all this organization has proven over and over to be biased, over certain nations, i mean just look at the people that were put in charge of human rights...Dictators at one time,....thats got to raise a red flag or two... who does that...

All I can say is when it is all against one...I am thinking the one may be in the wrong??

It is not a matter of what Canada benefits out of this,, Canada is part of a global organization and has a voye, like all other nations.

Although, Canada has been trying for years to be on the Unted Nations Security Council again. after 24 years..after being on it 6 times in the past. Maybe Canada's stature in the world has been the reaspon it is not on it?

Why would we want to be part of some group if it has no benefit to our nation...we pay to be a part of this and we get back a vote....that counts for what....not much....UN is run by 3 rd world nations, they have there own agenda...They have no power at all, neither does the inter national courts....The US has already come out and said any nation that messes with Israelis PM will be sanctioned or worse by the US government...Joe Biden, flexes before leaving office...

we pay , and get nothing in return, nor do we stop wars, starvation, nothing...it is a toothless organization terrorist organization have taken advantage of...

Why would we want a seat at the table...does it give us power, or global reputation, i mean where do you think we stand on the global scale of reputation if we can't even get a seat at the table...It once was a powerful organization, but today, come on they had a murdering dictator as human rights chair men...come on....

Someone important must have thought Canada would benefit by joining when it meant Jewish refugees would go somewhere else. As you should know by now Canada was instrumental in formulating the UN plan used to partition Palestinians from Jewish refugees.

So did the United Nations General Assembly become useless in your opinion before it passed Resolution 194 or after?
