Winds of War: The Children of Terror

From The Gathering Storm

I believe it was Golda Meir who said that peace in Middle East will occur when Arabs love their children more than they hate the Israelis. That was years ago but little has changed and has even gotten worse.

An excellent analysis of this problem is given by Grant Swank in his article at News By Us. The title of his piece “Why Should World Care about Muslim Kids Killed?” is a blunt, no holds barred opinion piece that more than proves Golda Meir’s remorse of decades ago.

His article reminds me of the scene in the movie ‘The Fugitive’ with Harrison Ford. When Ford tells Federal Marshall Samuel Gerard that he didn’t kill his wife, Gerard replied, “I don’t care.” Telling Ford that he had a job to do – catching a fugitive - and anything else was not his concern.

Should we care? Yes, it’s a shame that children are killed in this war but who placed the gun in the hands of that terrorist when he was a very young child. Who instilled hatred in that young mind, enough to want to sacrifice his life to kill Jews and Americans?

Swank lists the reasons.

• They have schools where they teach neurotic lessons to their own offspring. There instructors teach them in play acting how to behead an infidel.
• They have telecasts for children running constantly in the Middle East Arab geographies whereby children viewers are taught to hate the “Jew-pigs,” the latter term coined by Muslims who teach their own that Jews are descended from monkeys and pigs.
• They have suicide belts tied to their daughters and sons.
• They have rifles pushed into their children hands before they can play with tinker toys and blocks.
• They take their little girls to circumcise them — genital mutilation. Muslim mothers hold down the screaming daughter while the father takes a razor blade or scissors to cut away part of the girl’s private parts.
• They take their children to witness lashings of teens in the town square.
• They walk their boys and girls to the crane where a teen girl’s head is laced in a noose for hanging. Then they stand there with their children, seeing the girl’s legs and feet kick violently till all life is gone from her body. All week long they take their children to see humans hung from poles alongside the roads.
• They direct their own children to the pit where a woman has been placed with dirt up to her breasts. Then they hand stones to their boys and girls to help in crushing in her head. The stones are the sizes prescribed by the Koran — not too large so as to kill quickly and not too small so as to take forever to murder the woman.

He then asks, “So why should the United Nations weep over Arab children being killed in the present conflict? Far better to be killed by a bomb at an early age in Islam than live to be psychologically deranged as the adult killers are in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Hezbollah is composed of such neurotic children-grown-to-adult age."

Then this piece of immorality.

One Muslim mother sacrificed three of her adult sons to Allah as suicide bombers. She then kissed three more grown sons in front of a crowd, stating she was willing that they be suicide cases, too. She would then be a proud Muslim mother who had six adult sons snuffed out by their own choosing as sacrifices to Allah.

Should we care? Or be more concerned with snuffing out a culture of death that comes after you, me, our families, friends and neighbors?

You choose.
