The media tend to go to some lengths to bury the great good Israel does in the world. Those willing to pay attention and dig for the truth know that Israeli hospitals routinely treat Palestinians—at no charge—even when those Palestinians are terrorists dedicated to destroying Israel and committing genocide against all Jews. These are the same Jews the UN continually libels, and the same Jews suffering casualties from UN schools and other facilities that allow terrorists to store and fire weapons into Israel. Here’s yet another story of the evil Jews, from the times of Israel:
Almost from the start of the bloody conflict raging in Syria, Israel has agreed to treat in its hospitals any wounded Syrians who reached its border seeking help.
But one five-year-old girl from the war-torn land has led doctors, as well as Israel’s security services, to take unprecedented steps to try to save her life.
The girl arrived at Rambam Medical Center in Haifa in recent weeks with very serious wounds that she received after finding herself caught in a firefight between rival militias, according to an exclusive report Wednesday night on Channel 10.
Some two weeks after she arrived at the hospital, after her wounds had nearly healed, Rambam doctors discovered the young girl had cancer.
What’s the point? Jews are supposed to be selfish and greedy, aren’t they? What’s the benefit to any individual Jew or to Israel for treating, at great cost, one Syrian child? There, is, of course, no political or financial benefit, but the personal benefits, and those of the spirit for all Israelies, define them.
They refused to release her, insisting that they could not let her cancer go untreated. The girl had grown used to the hospital, and had friends among the other children being treated there, they said.
Security officials agreed.
And so a search began for a bone marrow donor, a search that led to a relative living in a Middle Eastern country designated an ‘enemy state’ under Israeli law, a designation that prevented the relative from entering Israel.
It was at this point that Israel’s security services stepped in, mounting a secret operation in the enemy country that helped smuggle the relative out of that country and into Israel.
Let’s be certain we understand what all of this means. This would require the knowing participation and agreement of the highest levels of the Israeli government. The mere effort to identify and confirm potential familial donors might very well risk multiple Israeli lives, people who have no relationship to a little Syrian girl, people who will never know or meet her. Smuggling that donor out of an “enemy state” would likewise put at risk the lives of Israeli patriots in the intelligence and military services, yet they did it, willingly, for one little girl.

The relative arrived in Israel on Monday, Channel 10 reported. Both child and donor are now quarantined at the hospital, where the girl is expected to undergo a first round of treatment this month.
Nearly every detail about the girl’s identity and the operation to locate and retrieve her relative are classified.
Why must everything be classified? Because there are millions in the Muslim world that would kill this little girl and her marrow donor relative, because she has been treated by Jews.
Expending enormous resources to save a single life is the kind of thing few peoples in the world would so much as think of doing. Americans do it all the time; and so do Israelies.
Any American that does not wholeheartedly support Israel supports those that would kill this girl and those that saved her life. One cannot be against his kind of kindness without being for evil. Yet two of the five candidates currently seeking the nominations of their parties do not clearly support Israel, and one is, at best, lukewarm in his support.
Where, in this situation, does altruism and nobility lie? Where else is the line between good and evil so clear?

The Israelis are not lacking in moral authority. Why they continue to treat
these people is beyond comprehension. There are two quotes by Golda
Meir that formed my opinion on these matters.
“We will have peace in the Middle East when the Palestinians love their
children more than they hate us.”
“I can forgive them from waging war on us, but I cannot forgive them for
making us do what we had to do to win.”
That second quote speaks volumes. The reason Israel has won every
war and all of the various terror campaigns was that the other side made
the conflicts existential. When your enemies are wiping out whole
towns, killing every last man, woman boy, girl and babies in their cribs,
It is easy to see why they prevailed in multiple wars involving as many as
5 or more Arab armies.
The Israeli fighters knew it was win or see every last Jew in the country
dead. These sentiments are nearly universal in the surrounding Arab
countries. As long as Israel is playing by the Marquis of Queensbury
rules, they are doomed to fail, just as America is in the larger Muslim
conflict. The reason the civilian population shields and supports the
terrorists is that they pay no price for that support.
Israel is cutting it’s own throat. Instead of sending text messages to
warn the terrorists, take out the entire apartment building without
warning. If Israel gets hit with a rocket barrage, take out the entire
city block. Do this five or six times and the civilian populace will
stop this bullshit game in a heartbeat!
We are already in the WWIII I predicted to Carmina (A 17 year old
hostess at my favorite restaurant) on 9-12-2001, when she asked
what happens next. As long as the civilized world is handcuffed
by the ridiculous rules of political correctness, we are screwed.
Sooner or later, the civilian population of Europe will take action
themselves if their political leadership lacks the will.
The moment their kids start dying in mass casualty attacks, the
Brits will rediscover the stiff upper lip. Every Scot will be a William
Wallace, every Irishman a Paddy Maine, every Pole a Jan Sobieski,
every Frenchman a Charles Martel, every Finn a Simo Hayha, every
Dane a Max Manus, etc. We already know what the Germans are
capable of and we should never forget that the French know a
thing or two about mob violence!
The conflict is inevitable in Europe, just as it is with Iran.
Dear Leonard Jones:
You’re quite right about the inevitable conflicts. The only question is: do we give our mortal enemies the first blow(s), and do we wait until they have nuclear weapons to make them? Barack Obama says “yes,” and “hell yes.”
At first, I agreed with W on the tactic I called the the “Asshole magnet”
approach, which meant killing them in third world hell-holes so we did
not have to fight them in the streets of America.
The one thing I underestimated is the near universal support the terrorists
enjoy especially in the Arab nations. It is not killing them that breeds more
like them, it is this pantywaist PC game we are all but too willing to play.
This is harsh, but this problem will not go away until the citizenry is made
to pay a price for their support. The drunken Irishmen in Boston bars
were putting dollars in jars marked “For the cause” to the very
very end. It took the citizens of Ireland stand up and say NO MORE
that put the IRA out of business. I do not see anything like this happening
when Palestinian preschoolers are taught to sing “Death to the Jews,” and
were cheering in the streets the events of 9-11.
The 500 pound gorilla in the room is Iran. Their nuke capacity needs to
taken out at all cost. The Soviets and the ChiComs both had nukes,
but they were pragmatic enough not to invite total destruction. When you
have religious Muslim fundamentalist jack-holes who actually believe
they can usher in the end times by nuking Israel, that is too real a threat
to be allowed to remain in place.
We pissed away Korea and Vietnam out of an overabundance of caution.
Truman and Johnson cost our troops dearly. Even if the worst that
happens is Iranian nuclear blackmail, it will be curtains for America
and the western democracies.
