| h2ohno said: Shaked never said the mothers of all Palestinians should be killed. She said that the "mothers of the martyrs" should be killed. This is obviously also a very problematic thing to say, but it refers solely to the mothers of those who commit terrorist attacks. It is terrible. It is incitement. But it has not been government policy and she backtracked away from it, And anyone who says she called for all Palestinians or all mothers to be killed is peddling 'fake news.' A useful test is to compare the how each society responds to their worst members or atrocities committed against the other side. In 2014, shortly before the Gaza war, Hamas terrorists kidnapped and murdered three Israeli teenagers. The result was celebrations throughout the West Bank and Gaza. Social media posts were full of people smiling and holding three fingers up in support of the murder of the three teenagers. The murders were largely seen as heroic. Then a group of Jewish teenagers carried out a revenge killing of an Arab teenager. The result within Israeli society was near-universal horror and disgust, with some of the most right-wing settler leaders calling for the perpetrators to be killed. Incidentally, Shaked herself called for the perpetrators to be treated the same as any other murderers, including Arabs who murdered Jews. Israelis ostracize those who murder innocents. The Palestinians idolize them. |
The post was deleted, but an archived version remains.
“They have to die and their houses should be demolished so that they cannot bear any more terrorists,” Shaked said, adding, “They are all our enemies and their blood should be on our hands. This also applies to the mothers of the dead terrorists.”
“Behind every terrorist stand dozens of men and women, without whom he could not engage in terrorism. They are all enemy combatants, and their blood shall be on all their heads. Now this also includes the mothers of the martyrs, who send them to hell with flowers and kisses. They should follow their sons, nothing would be more just. They should go, as should the physical homes in which they raised the snakes. Otherwise, more little snakes will be raised there.”
coincidentally women and children make up a sizeable number of Palestinian fatalities caused by Israeli attacks in the region. I don't know about the celebrations part and other stuff. I remember Trump saying something similar about 9/11 cheering in NJ when he was campaigning for President, which was later proven false. IJS
I don't know how to fix it, but both sides have to come to the table and make a compromise. Somehow.
