NextImg:Maybe diversity isn't always our strength

Scroll down for a chart showing where and when the Ring of Fire Eclipse will appear.

Superstitious? Did anything bad happen to you on Friday the 13th? Strange that it came right before an eclipse! You might want to remind some friends or relatives in the West about the eclipse. We will miss it here.

Maybe some people should have paid more attention to some other dates recently, like Israeli intelligence BEFORE the 50th anniversary of the Yom Kippur war. It's like there was no awareness of the religious motivations of terrorists like Hamas. Haven't these terrorists paid attention to special dates in the past?

How Hamas says they planned the strike. Some say they totally avoided electronic communications. Scroll down for the Russia Today interview, Oct. 8:

Maybe diversity isn't always our strength

Too little, too late: 100-year-old Henry Kissinger says it was "a grave mistake to let in so many people of totally different culture and religion and concepts" after seeing Arabs celebrating Hamas in Europe

Henry Kissinger, who was a dominating force in creating foreign policy and globalist policies that define Western nations, has finally come around to the conclusion that regular folk have known for 50 years.

Kissinger told Politico this week that, after seeing the support for Hamas in Germany, mass migration was a mistake.

They are banning the phrase "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" in Berlin. Maybe in all of Germany. Hate speech laws turn against the postmodernists, for once.

Then there's this (The Guardian - sorry):

Mahatma Gandhi's killer venerated as Hindu nationalism resurges in India

On 30 January 1948, Godse stepped out in front of Gandhi and shot him three times at point-blank range. A fervent believer in Hindu nationalism, Godse thought Gandhi had betrayed India's Hindus by agreeing to partition, leading to the creation of Pakistan, and by championing the rights of Muslims. In 1949, Godse was hanged for Gandhi's murder.

In the following decades, Godse was widely decried as a terrorist and traitor, the murderer of the "father of India". Yet, in recent years, as Hindu nationalism has moved from an extremist fringe to mainstream Indian politics - the ruling Bharatiya Janata party (BJP) has a Hindu nationalist agenda at their core - Godse's public reputation has steadily shifted from being condemned as traitor to being venerated as a misunderstood Indian patriot.

Meanwhile, Gandhi's vision of a secular India with equal rights for all religions has been eroded and subjugated since the BJP came to power in 2014.

"Godse did the right thing by killing Gandhi," said Devendra Pandey, 53, national secretary of Hindu Mahasabha, the Hindu nationalist organisation behind the memorial library. He was vocal in his belief that India should be declared "a country rightfully for Hindus" and that its 200 million Muslims should move to Pakistan.

Hmmmmm . . .

Seems to me that there was a lot of partitioning going on in 1947. There has been some strange news recently about bad relations between India and Canada over Sikh separatists. Here's some background from someone who may be a Sikh separatist.

1 M Sikhs died in partition of Sikh empire
India promised democracy and special status to Sikhs but 3.4 M Sikhs have been killed by Indian State since 1947

I can't confirm the above, but until recent months, I had not heard much about Sikh unrest in India or Canada (other than that terrorist bombing of the Air India flight from Montreal in 1985). I haven't sorted out the Canadian story in my mind yet.

What now?

Hamas says they are more ethical than the civilians in Gaza.

Even if you read Daniel Greenfield's great piece (h/t J.J. Sefton) What Hamas Was Really Out To Do, you might want to read it again in light of the declaration from Hamas above. Did they really encourage civilian men to "tag along" as they invaded? We know that they were lying about only planning to attack the IDF. But still, did they bring their own "settlers" with them?

This was not a terrorist attack; it was an annexation.

There are a lot of interesting ideas about why Israeli intelligence failed to see the attack coming in this piece, too. I alluded to some of them above. Israeli intelligence failed to take religion seriously.

Instapundit also linked War and the reshaping of societies by Donald Sensing, which explains how Hamas is an ideology -- not just an organization.

Let me emphasize at the outset that my assessment of the looming Israeli invasion of Gaza is intended to be descriptive, not prescriptive. I am not proposing what Israel should do, but what it may do as the coming days and weeks unfold, even if Israel does not actually intend it now.

Having formed a "unity government" for the war, Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has stated clearly that the permanent end of Hamas as the principal war aim. That this objective requires a land invasion of Gaza is also clear. But what can it take to destroy Hamas? Netanyahu has said that killing its terrorists fighters is a specific goal, but Hamas is not merely an organization. It is also an ideology. How does Israel end with not only the present Hamas organization destroyed, but also the ideology?

America's Civil War and World War 2 may provide a clue.

But first, what is Hamas' ideology?

It is very simple: Kill Jews, kill Jews, kill more Jews. Specifically, Hamas (and Lebanon's Hezbollah) has said publicly and often that it has at least the following goals:

  1. The elimination of the state of Israel and establishment of a Muslim nation "from the Jordan river to the Mediterranean Sea." Jews must vacate this land entirely or they will be killed.

  2. In the meantime, and as a tactic to attain that goal, Hamas has said before and again very recently that Jews must be killed. Last Saturday, Hamas military commander Mohammed Deif announced, "Operation Al-Aqsa Deluge." Al-Aqsa is the name of the mosque atop the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. Deif said that the mass killings of Israelis were a mere "first strike," with much more yet to come.

He explains some Muslim theology, too.

"America's Civil War and World War 2 may provide a clue." Scary.

It's not just Hamas:

Weekend Musings

Our own postmodernists:

IN THIS HOUSE, WE BELIEVE

NO SETTLER IS A CIVILIAN

THE LAND BELONGS TO THE PENULTIMATE CONQUERORS

SCIENCE IS A EUROCENTRIC MYTHOLOGY WITH NO STRONGER CLAIM TO TRUTH THAN INDIGENOUS WAYS OF KNOWING

THE SEXUAL DESIRES OF MALE FETISHISTS OVERRIDE ALL OTHER RIGHTS

MASS MURDER CAN BRING ABOUT A BETTER WORLD

Until we can bring internet access to all citizens across the globe, millions of people in third world countries will go their whole lives without ever knowing they were transgender.

Palestine is one of the most effective ideological tools of political coercion ever invented in history.

Among the strangest details of the Palestinian crisis: the life expectancy in Gaza is several years longer than in Egypt. Living in a city ruled by terrorists under siege and bombardment is still healthier than living in Egypt.

Maybe not for long.

The CNN Strategy of Hamas was described 15 years ago.

Weekend Reading: 1922 Tablet piece BY HUSSEIN ABOUBAKR MANSOUR:

The Liberation of the Arabs From the Global Left

The exploitation of the intellectual and political energies of Arab societies as ammunition in the ideological battles of the left has had disastrous effects on the region

Music

Superstition

Hope you have something nice planned for this weekend.
