K’Mtar: [Alexander has just dropped an opponent in the Holodeck] Po’tajg! Po’tajg! Finish him. [Alexander drops his bat’leth and walks away. The Hologram Klingon gets up knife ready to kill him from behind] Freeze program. [To Alexander] You should have killed him when you had the chance.
Lt. Worf: Why did you not?
Alexander: I don’t know.
K’Mtar: Look at him! He did not care that you showed him mercy. He was going to kill you.
Lt. Worf: K’mtar, that is enough.
K’Mtar: If this was real, he’d be dead by now.

Experience keeps a dear school, but fools will learn in no other.

Yesterday I talked about the problem of Gaza post Hamas, over at the daily links at Elder of Ziyon I saw this story and video that emphasizes that problem, a story that is both heartbreaking and maddening

“We thought that Palestinians are good people. All they want is peace and prosperity,” Lahav told the Washington Free Beacon in an interview from a hotel in this Red Sea resort city where she and most of her community were temporarily relocated. “It’s just that Hamas is forcing them to be in this aggressive situation.”

When terrorists first shook the door of her safe room on Oct. 7, Lahav was sure that she and her 22-year-old daughter were about to be killed. But a makeshift lock she had fashioned out of an oar and a vacuum cleaner thwarted three separate break-in attempts. The women lay in the darkened room for about 10 hours listening to sounds of automatic gunfire and grenade explosions. At one point, they heard a group of teenagers robbing their house.

Later, Lahav learned from other Nir Oz survivors that Gazan women and children as young as 10 years old had followed Hamas terrorists into the kibbutz, looting, helping the armed terrorists, and apparently enjoying themselves.

Here is the video

It’s heartbreaking because better than one in four of the people in her Kibbutz were killed or kidnapped. But it’s also maddening because this woman is in her 60’s and the evidence during her entire life has been that the Palestinians have wanted them dead, have cheered when terror attacks had taken place and only saw the Israeli peace camp as useful idiots to be exploited.

Yet it took the slaughter of her neighbors for her to learn this lesson and the only reason she and her daughter lived long enough to learn that lesson was that her makeshift lock held out.

How many of her neighbors would still be alive today if they had learned that lesson before Oct 7th?

And let’s ask two more important question to folks here in the states, questions whose answers I believe are just as clear:

  1. How many of those protesting in the streets today in NYC, DC and elsewhere would kill the Jews they encounter here if they thought they could get away with it?
  2. Is there any reason to believe they would or will stop with the Jews when they are done

I submit and suggest that the answer to question 1 is “Yes” and the answer to question 2 is “No” and the only reason you will not likely see this happen in the US is that the citizens of this country are the most heavily armed civilian population in the world today, possibly in history.

Which explains why the left wants us disarmed.

May Israel grow wiser from these event and may the west profit from this horrible example. Finally to those who don’t think this could happen here, I wish you the best of luck, may the dear school of experience never take residence in your town.

Update: She wasn’t alone in her naïveté and her reeducation

Reverse the Religions in this Story and it’s National if not International News OR DaTechGuy’s 3rd Law of Media Outrage Strikes Again

Here is a story you likely won’t see on CNN

Police said a Nashville family is facing charges after police say they beat their son who recently converted from Islam to Christianity.

Nick Kadum, 57, Rawaa Khawaji, 46, and John Kadum, 29, were all charged in the incident.

Metro officers were dispatched to Amber Hills Lane on Tuesday to do a welfare check on the victim, who is a juvenile. When officers arrived, the victim appeared disheveled and cut haphazardly, police said. The victim had a scratch on the back of his right hand and several lumps on his face.

The victim told police his father, mother and brother attacked him because he had recently become a Christian and they are Muslims, who were disappointed in his change of religion, according to an arrest report.

“He stated (his mother), along with his brother and father, repeatedly punched him and spat in his face,” an officer stated in the report. “He stated his mother then took a knife and scratched the back of his right hand with it. He stated his family, including his mother, demanded he recant and say he was a Muslim.”

Now if the parents and family doing the beating and wielding the knife were Christian then CNN would be making this national news if not international news. You might even see protests on the streets in foreign capitals.

But alas they are Muslims so DaTechGuy’s 3rd law of media outrage applies:

The MSM’s elevation and continued classification of any story as Nationally Newsworthy rather than only of local interest is in direct correlation to said story’s current ability to affirm any current Democrat/Liberal/Media meme/talking point, particularly on the subject of race or sexuality.

thus this remains local news barely worth the short story that Nashville 4 gave it.

#Unexpectedly of courseTM

In fairness, Jesus did explicitly say this kind of thing was not only part of the job description

Brother will hand over brother to death, and the father his child; children will rise up against parents and have them put to death. You will be hated by all because of my name, but whoever endures to the end will be saved.

Matt 10:21,22

But part of the plan

“Do not think that I have come to bring peace upon the earth. I have come to bring not peace but the sword. For I have come to set a man ‘against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and one’s enemies will be those of his household.’

Matt 10:34-36

I think if the woke students saw this their jaws would drop off and roll under a car somewhere.

Now I will give this guy 10 out of 10 for actually believing his religion and making the argument that “sin” is not justified by a “good cause” and noting that obeying God is more important than advancing any cause, even a good one. But note what he is defining as sin:

  1. Free mixing with women
  2. Prayer time that is missed
  3. Muslim woman coming out without wearing “at the very least a jibab”
  4. Standing next to a guy taking it up the arse (vs ‘ass’ as this is British English) at night

And note what this Islamic scholar asks at the end: “Is Allah going to give victory to people who are disobeying him outright?”

Even better maybe we should play it for those Ivy League president and watch them dissemble in their reactions.

The Time For Choosing Grows Closer For The Left

“I’m not talking about Islamists. I’m not talking about terrorists. I’m not talking about radical Islam. I’m talking about mainstream Muslim culture. There are eleven Muslim countries in which I could be killed for being a homosexual. The state penalty is death. One hundred million people live in country where the penalty for homosexuality is death. This is not radical Islam. This is mainstream Muslim society. Look what’s happening in Sweden. Look what’s happening anywhere in Germany, anywhere there are large influxes of a Muslim population. Things don’t end well for women and gays. The left has got to make a decision. Either they want female emancipation and it wants gay rights or it wants Islam. It’s got to pick.”

Milo Yiannopoulos 2016

I must confess I read Don Surber’s piece today with some amusement because it seemed so familiar:

This is what I wrote in June:

If these were children of Catholic, or even Protestant Parents they would be denounced all over the west, Canada’s draconian laws would be unleashed against them and their parents would be face legal proceedings for hate crimes, every talk show host would be on their case and people who do their best to have them fired from any jobs they held. Perhaps even proceedings launched to take custody of these children from the parents who did this.

However these children and not Catholic, or Protestant or any Christian denomination. They are Muslims and while a lot more people are claiming to be gay, or binary or whatever the fad is to get credit for victim status the actual physical Muslim population of both the US and Canada is not only growing but continues to grow.

Those MP’s are going to need those Muslim votes in just 10 to 20 years to get elected.

Now Don Surber today quoting the Telegraph:

if a Christian council had banned the Pride flag, liberals would have known exactly how to respond. Denounce the council for its queerphobic bigotry, and lead a furious protest march against heteronormative, patriarchal white supremacy. Simple.

Unfortunately, though, this council isn’t Christian. As a result, American liberals are being forced to contemplate an awkward dilemma. Their whole purpose in life is to defend marginalised minorities. But what should they do when one marginalised minority marginalises another marginalised minority? Whose side should they take?

A very long time ago I wrote how the primary target of the left was always Christianity and the left saw Islam as another group that opposed Christians. What Muslim’s actually believed didn’t matter as long as they could be weaponized against Christian culture.

But having seemingly defeated Christian culture, at least in the blue states, the reality of the Tom Hagen math is biting them. The future belongs to those who show up and people who castrate their own children children if they even bother to have any just don’t have as many votes as those who have large families.

I predict that I will live to see the Democrat/left throw the LGBTQ community, that they never really liked anyways, under the bus, but what will really be interesting is the moment that will come before this when the Antifa types decide to try to muscle American Muslims.

I suspect if they are foolish enough to try it will look something like this with Antifa playing the role of the bikers

At least it will end like this is Antifa is lucky.

I’ll give the last word to Don:

Liberals believe the price Muslims should pay for sticking up for them is giving up their religious beliefs.

HAHAHA.
