RE ‘Quotes about the War’ from Axmed Bahjad of August 1, Axmed Bahjad loves quotations.
For instance, he quotes Gerald Kaufman MP; US Jim Baker, Robert Fisk and Gandhi. Selective ones that are all anti-Jewish.
Our daily news pictures are the pictures that Hamas (a terrorist organisation by the way banned by the US, Europe, including Britain) wants the world to see.
However, it is less keen to show pictures of Hamas parading young boys, some no older than 12, proudly bearing weapons, being taught how to wear suicide vests, how to fire guns, to hate and to kill!
We all know Hamas wants to destroy Israel, which will never happen. Israel shelters behind sophisticated technology. Hamas hides behind women and children, in schools, hospitals (as the UN discovered) and mosques.
Where are Axmed Bahjad’s letters of indignation regarding the Islamist slaughter in Syria, the recent Muslim kidnapping of schoolgirls in Africa, and Muslim persecution of Christians in Iraq? Silence. He seems myopically selective in his indignation! Underlying all this is a nasty streak of anti-Semitism.
Mr Bahjad offers no calm assessment of the facts, just an incontinent outpouring of emotion.
Israel is in the front line of global jihad, but make no mistake; we are on the list too. We are all infidels now.
