THE SMELL OF SUCCESS, a Touch of Deterrence
by Prof. Eugene Narrett - copyright 2006
One knows that the IDF, Israel and the Jewish people are poised for a long-needed and life-saving success when Arab MK’s began burbling threats about ending the move into that geographic anomaly and geopolitical imposture, the Gaza strip. The smell of success also is blowin’ in the wind when jihadists begin making threats about what they ‘will do’ if Israel gives them the pounding they have earned and that they can feel hovering in the air above their murderous heads.
This babbling of the enemy is a sure sign that Israel, astonishingly (and look at what it’s taken the past 13 years) is on the verge of making a major bite out of global jihad and in restoring deterrence, — the awareness by everyone that Jewish life is precious, not cheap and that, cousin to this fact, that Jewish land everywhere west of the Jordan is going to be redeemed and soon.
Israel must not miss this opportunity to bring light out of darkness, good from evil and to step away from the precipice its ruling echelons have brought it to (albeit with much great power pressure). The hail of rockets from the Gaza strip have been a kind of measure for measure revealing the suicidal stupidity and sin of removing the Jewish settlers from their beautiful communities there. The continuing and increasing attacks, and the escalating threats of the Islamic groups of more to come are facts demanding that retributive justice be exacted now.
Trust us: nearly all Americans, including the malicious peddlers of bad faith in the State Department will breathe a lot easier. But that is not the main concern or benefit…
At a minimum, the IDF remains in the entire southern ‘bulge’ of Gush Katif, isolating the terrorists from the sieve-like Egyptian border and re-establishing a permanent Jewish presence there, for life and living. In addition, all leaders of all terrorist groups that may be involved in any way with the rocket attacks or with the recent infiltration, murders of soldiers on guard duty (this isn’t a war, is it? and if it is…), and the heinous kidnapping and threats to murder Israeli POW Shalit must be executed forthwith by any means.
And if, heaven forbid, POW Shalit is not released promptly or if he is harmed further in any way at all then every leader and spokesman for any terror group anywhere from the Sinai to and throughout Syria and Lebanon, Yehuda and the Shomron are to be executed and the cities from which they operate flattened flatter than the towns of Gush Katif were flattened; flattened just like the cities from which the nazi murderers operated.
This is the path to peace; this is the preemption of more terror attacks against Jews. This is deterrence against the continuing attrition and genocide of the Jewish people.
It’s about time that Israel, the main target for many centuries, led the world in bringing a big dose of retributive justice and deterrence to global jihad. That’s a peace process that will succeed; the partner will be created in proportion to the massiveness of the deterrent strike.
