The New York Post recently ran an excellent editorial on January 16, 2026 by David Harsanyi highlighting the blatant hypocrisy of those who caused massive disruptions on campuses all over the world, disrupting everyday life on city streets, launching flotillas, closing businesses, physically attacking and vilifying Jews everywhere, etc. on behalf of alleged Arab victims of Jews after the Hamas carried out the greatest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust -in one day.
Two millennia of anti-Jewish, Christian church teachings and indoctrination about “god-killing, perfidious, well,poisoning, perpetually wandering, spawn of the devil Jews" once again surfaced.
Together with too many useful idiots of the new “woke" left of Lenin, Hamas and black African slave holding, trillionaire Arab oil potentates, who pour billions of dollars into academia to poison minds and promote one-sided indoctrination instead of education in universities, colleges, middle and high schools, this alliance of theologically based Jew hatred (part of Islam as well) and woke “Progressivism" has resulted in Jews everywhere being left standing alone…the victims of atrocities being blamed for their own victimization.
The aftermath of October 7th brought unspeakable tragedy to both parties in this conflict. But, make no mistake. There’s no “moral equivalency" here.
The casualties Arabs suffered in Gaza were a direct result of the atrocities Arabs deliberately committed against innocent Israeli Jewish civilians. The problem is that in most Arab eyes, there are no innocent Jews.
Once kafir infidel lands have been forcibly conquered in the name of the Dar ul-Islam and “purely Arab patrimony," they may never revert back to infidel status in the supremacist Arab mindset.
That Jews have four millennia of extensively corroborated history illustrating that Israel is indeed the ancestral homeland of the Jewish People, makes no difference.
What other nation in the world would put up with what Israel has tolerated for so long?
Urban warfare is a nightmare, especially to the non-combatant population, but Israel was forced to fight this type of conflict because, instead of having areas apart from their civilian counterparts, Hamas and other groups like it deliberately choose to embed themselves within that population. They use women, children, and others as human shields, a double war crime according to the Geneva Conventions on War, the Perfidy Clause in particular.
One of the world’s leading experts on urban warfare at West Point wrote an assessment (actually many) of Israel’s conduct in the Gaza conflict. It should be required reading for all so quick to pass judgment on Israel…
As the New York Post and other media outlets are now revealing, the time for the world to react to end the wanton slaughter of innocents by the genocidal mullahs of the Islamic Republic should be much sooner rather than later. Yesterday would have been better.
We have abandoned allies and innocents before - let us not do it again.
American and Allied bombers flew right over the railroad tracks and Auschwitz itself en route to targets in Nazi Germany-and not one bomb was ever dropped to try to slow the slaughter.
At the same time, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt refused to allow 1,000 German Jews aboard the SS Saint Louis to land in America and forced the ship away from American shores. They were forced to return to Europe, and most perished in the death camps.
He also permitted far fewer Jewish refugees to enter America during other times as well, even though the numbers were permissible.
Sadly, our beloved, great nation has had leaders who committed other such travesties over the years, such as the one which I offer below because it serves as a reminder about what we should not do this time around when Kurds are being slaughtered, and so many courageous Iranians are being massacred in the streets (and are probably being secretly hanged indoors so no one sees, to fool President Trump).
During the Iran-Iraq war in the 1980’s, Saddam Hussein gassed and otherwise slaughtered over 250,000 Kurds in the Anfal Campaign.
Their revolt had actually occurred because of decades of prior oppression by both Syrian and Iraqi Arabs, and was encouraged by America. The title of Professor Ismet Cheriff Vanly’s book, the Syrian “Mein Kampf" Against the Kurds says it all.
They had been promised independence in at least part of the Mandate of Mesopotamia after WWI, but a collusion of British petroleum politics and Arab nationalism nipped this in the bud.
Sadly, American use and abuse of its strangely loyal friends and allies continues to this very day.
The Kurds are America’s best non-USA fighting force opposing assorted Arab jihadis in Syria and Iraq, and at a time when they need increased Washington support against resurgent ISIS, al-Qaeda, and other jihadis like them and their Hamas enabling would-be Sultan Erdogan the Great, America is withdrawing from the area.
This has resulted in the new Syrian jihadi president in a suit, Ahmed al-Sharaa, launching a massive campaign against them as this article is being written. He’s the same new "moderate" who recently supported the slaughter of over 1,500 Druze and Christians.
Keep in mind that Kurds predate their Arab and Turkish tormentors by millennia in the region.
The Turks outlawing of the Kurds’s very language and culture and renaming them “Mountain Turks" is nothing less than cultural genocide being committed by the same hypocrites who dare to point fingers at Israel, which has Arab members in the Knesset who openly support Hamas and has made Arabic the second national language.
When Saddam invaded that giant oil well known as Kuwait, President George H. W. Bush encouraged the Kurds to once again rise in revolt against their Iraqi Arab oppressors during Operation Desert Storm in 1991.
Well, what happened in 1991 and even earlier in the ‘80’s regarding American encouragement of the Kurds to oppose Saddam is not an honorable tale to tell regarding America.
Washington had huge numbers of military personnel and equipment in Kuwait and Iraq, but when a ceasefire was agreed upon, it stood by and did nothing as tens of thousands of additional Kurds-America’s allies in fighting Saddam-were ruthlessly massacred.
The legendary NY Times Pulitzer Prize winning journalist, William Safire, wrote a series of articles entitled “The Sellout of the Kurds" in response. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger disgraced America in his leadership in the abuse of this courageous people-America’s best friends in the region besides Israel-forty one million truly stateless people. Let us not let history repeat itself.
