This is a worthy essay to read for all of us.

The author is neither Israeli nor Jew.

Israel puts the West to Shame
Yahya Sinwar is dead. Those who say "By fighting Hamas, Israel is just creating more terrorists" are cowards who do not understand the nature of evil.

Evil lost and Good won today.

It is thanks to Israel and no thanks to the Western nations who sit passively by while Israel fights their battles for them.
What to do about Yahya Sinwar?

Yahya Sinwar, The Butcher of Khan Younis, the orchestrator of Oct 7th, who was known to strangle his own people with his bare hands, and who once ordered a young man to kill his brother and dig his grave, has been eliminated. I wrote about him in A Vampire Came to Call, about the insanity of letting a vampire into your home, and yet people are doing it.

When I say I stand with Israel and their right to a homeland and their right to fight for it, so many people respond by saying “Israel needs to stop. All they are doing is creating more Hamas jihadists.”

This is the mindset of weakness. The mindset of passiveness. The mindset of those who want others to fight for them while they complain about it. These cowards—and that includes government officials and church leaders who set the example for the rest of us—resent and even hate Israel because it is everything they are not. What happened to the passive, weak Jews who walked into the ovens? Never again.

I’ve got news for you:

You will never eradicate evil. Nor will you ever eradicate good. That is the dichotomy of life. The yin and the yang of our existence on this planet.

It is your decision which side you fight on. And if you shrug your shoulders and say, “It has nothing to do with me, it’s useless to fight because you can never get rid of evil and you’ll only make it worse,” you are as good as on the side of evil.
