“What we will do to our enemies in the coming days will reverberate with them for generations.” – Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of Israel

The inhuman brutality of the Hamas terrorist massacre in southern Israel is just the opening act. The mass murder of 1,000 or more Israelis and foreigners, and the kidnapping of more than a hundred more, set off an earthquake of human events, which can easily lead to a global conflagration of unstoppable proportions. When an invader murders and rapes, decapitates and dismembers, there is no forgiveness and no compromise.

There are no moderates. There are no restraints. No brakes.

Israel has now laid siege to Gaza. No electricity, no food, and no water will enter. Israel is now in the process of stripping that crowded nest of conscienceless terrorists of its first layer of cover, with many more layers to come. At some point in the near future, the IDF will be entering Gaza. Unlike past operates, it will not for a surgical strike. It will be all out war to conquer it and expel Hamas and its supporters from leadership and, as much as possible, from existence on Earth.

Israeli leaders and senior military advisers like Gen. (res.) Giora Eiland says unequivocally that there is no alternative to conquer Gaza, expel Hamas and its supporters, then try to retrieve as many of its citizens as is humanly possible, however improbable as that may seem.  It is “us or them.” If Israel does not clean and pacify Gaza, experts say, Hamas will return in a couple of years even stronger and try again.

The arrival of American aircraft carriers, ships and jets is welcome as a deterrent, but there is no assurance that Hezbullah or Iran-backed militias in Syria will be deterred. They are drunk on the scenes of Israel’s humiliation and suffering. They want to repeat the October 7 atrocities in the north. Already a 15-mile-wide strip of Israeli communities on the Lebanon border are being evacuated. This will, the argument goes, enable the IDF to operate more freely with fewer civilians and families to defend.

But Israel will proceed, with great force, to topple buildings—including schools, hospitals, and mosques — and kill hundreds, then thousands, and quite possibly tens of thousands of Hamas fighters, their supporters and, sadly, innocent civilians. They too are victims of Hamas, like all the good Germans who supported or tolerated Hitler, or went along because they had no choice. With no electricity and dwindling food and water, homes destroyed, many will be wise to flee to Egypt as the lesser of evils.

Israel notifies about bombings and shelling but the pace will be rapid and soon Gaza will be flattened and devastated, allowing Israeli forces safer passage than the rat’s nest of built-up areas in the Strip. IDF messages explicitly says that there are no orders to flee to Egyptian safety (plus food and water).

Then Israeli tanks will roll in to finish the job. It may take weeks, or a month or two. There will be many challenges, setbacks, and losses. But in the end there will be many fewer Palestinians in Gaz. Political arrangements? Israelis aren’t thinking of that now. They are thinking of vengeance, punishment, and preventing any repetition of what started on October 7. They are thinking about survival. And they are thinking pretty much the same thing. Gaza must be retaken and pacified. Hamas and its supporters will be killed or expelled, massively and ruthlessly. Will some in the world complain? Boo-hoo.

Israelis intend to live and will use every resource or weapon in their possession if that’s what it takes.

Will the Arabs of Judea and Samaria join in the Hamas-led festivities? Marhaba. You will soon be reintroduced to your brethren on the east bank of the Jordan, the lion’s share of historic Palestine. Will Israel’s Arab citizens dare to join the battle? Bvakasha. Take your keys and join your kin in Amman. What happened on October 7 is the fuse that will lead, step by step, to the eradication of vermin from in and around the Land of Israel. Only when tenable borders are re-established, and our people will be home, will there be a chance for lasting peace. Inshallah.

Hezbullah’s Sheikh Nasrallah and other sources in that big brother organization to Hamas have warned that Israeli ground entry into Gaza will trigger a bombardment from the north. Again, Israel is saying: bring it. It is inevitable now that a bombardment will come, and better sooner than later. The strength of this terror group is far greater than Hamas. The damage of these rockets will be far greater and more difficult to intercept.

Then comes Iran. Hamas has said clearly that Iran was instrumental in funding, planning, and training for the October 7 onslaught and massacres. Iranian authorities are coy about taking responsibility for what the Palestinians wrought in their war crimes. But Iran is the puppeteer and the bankroller of the improvement in the range and capabilities of its proxies.

Iran is the head of the snake or, perhaps more accurately, the hydra. Teheran operates with many tentacles, many aimed to wrap around Israel’s neck and choke it to death. The IDF’s Iron Swords, however, will dehydrate the war heads of Iran along with its nuclear ambitions. How the rest of the world will take an Israeli or joint allied strike on Iran is anyone’s guess. It’s not impossible, and perhaps not even unlikely, that nuclear weapons will be unleashed at some point.

This Biblical scenario of Armageddon, named after Megiddo in Israel’s north, not far from its border with Lebanon, has never been closer to realization. For Israelis, however, the events that began on October 7 were a shocking wake-up call and a turn of events from which there is no return. It may seem a nightmare but it is all too real. It is as real as the gunfire which killed festival goers, and the knives that carved up Israeli babies, and as real as the rockets that rain in their thousands day and night on Israelis.

In Australia, in London, in New York. the pro-Palestinian mobs chant “gas the Jews.” Pogroms are beginning among migrants and Muslims who now are seeking more power in Europe.  They offer a disturbing discord to the blue-and-white and blue-ribbon support for Israel. For now. It won’t last.

Listen, world. Themodern ways of settling problems are suspended until a viable order is restored and justice meted out. Until murdered babies and violated women and slaughtered families are avenged the way the Bible tells His People to wreak vengeance for the humiliation and desecration of God’s name. On Simchat torah.

Friends and enemies, and we will soon see which you are: Gird your loins and prepare your shelters for a solution of Biblical proportions.  Know this: Israelis are not going to go again like lambs to the slaughter.  We are Lions of Judah, and our mission now, at any cost, is to cleanse our beautiful land of human filth, of depraved two-legged baby-killing beasts. To eliminate them, neutralize them, or expel them like shit.

Time to put down these rabid blood-thirsty animals and get on with resettling our communities and rebuilding our greenhouses, the ones that the Palestinians destroyed along with any hope of peace.

Live by the sword. Die by the sword. Words to live by. Never before has this reality been more apparent: it’s us or them. Never again will the Jews lose our will to fight for our lives, even if we go down fighting.

It’s the end of the world as we know it. We are Israel. Who is with us and who against?

Choose wisely. The fate of the whole world depends on that choice.

Or has that choice been made already long ago?
