There’s no justification for the abduction and slaughter of innocents, and that includes the proposals for an eye-for-an-eye slaughter of Palestinian innocents. There are 2.3 million Palestinians crammed into the Gaza Strip, and the vast majority of them are not Hamas. From Michael Hoffman at unz.com:
Populist “heroes” exhibit contempt for the Palestinian people
Last year when Dr. Jordan Peterson, the celebrated self-help/pro-Western psychologist, toured occupied Palestine with Zionist-Talmudist Ben Shapiro, interested observers considered it an ill-omen. Mr. Shapiro is one of many anti-Palestinian bigots and war-Zionists roaming the airwaves on Far-Right podcasting.
On domestic policies Mr. Shapiro is sometimes a champion of commonsensical traditional values. Yet one must ask, how sincere is he about those values when he has contempt for millions of Palestinian people viciously oppressed by his beloved Israeli regime?
Biden’s regime is wicked, but Netanyahu’s regime is virtuous, according to Ben and his sidekick, Jordan Peterson. Those are two thoughts amounting to a bipolar mentation.
Dr. Peterson posted this semi-coherent tweet on X.) Jordan B. Peterson’s tweet to Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu Oct 7:
“Give ’em hell @netanyahu
Enough is enough”
Give who hell, Dr. Peterson?
In the fog and fever of war, given the past crimes of the Israelis, to issue a general admonition to their prime minister to give “them” (Palestinians) hell, is a warrant for the genocide of the dehumanized Palestinian people, two million of whom are hostage to Hamas, due to being confined by the Israeli military and a U.S. client state (Egypt)—to a tiny concentration camp known as the Gaza strip, 25 miles long and five miles wide.
History shows that when Palestinian innocents die there is comparatively little outcry in the U.S. and much of the rest of the Western world. They are murdered with impunity. Consequences? Almost none, except in Asia, Africa, the Middle East and Latin America, where people are actually beyond the influence of the Talmudic dictum that Judaic life is more worthy than non-Judaic life.
All humans are flawed. It is best never to have idols or heroes.
