Elder of Ziyon
Another day in Ramadan. Another terror attack. More Israeli civilians murdered while doing the same things you and I do every day.
And Palestinians celebrating the murder of Jews. This from Jenin.
In the previous attacks over the past couple of weeks, Israeli Arabs condemned them. Jordan and Egypt condemned them.
But the Palestinian leadership didn't, until it was made clear that there would be consequences if they don't.
I can confidently make a prediction: Not one major Palestinian newspaper or news site will publish a single article, a single op-ed, a single letter, a single comment that says anything negative about murdering Israeli civilians.
Not one UNRWA teacher will say a negative word about the attack, while the students will be handing out candy. Not one Islamic cleric will say that this isn't what Islam is about while mosque loudspeakers blare "Allah hu Akbar."
I'm not a prophet. I know this because I've been watching the Palestinian reactions to attacks like these for many years and it always the same.
One other prediction guaranteed to become true: any gunmen who are killed will be nearly universally referred to as "martyrs."
And one more: the families of the terrorists will make a lot of money, courtesy of "moderate" President Mahmoud Abbas with the lifetime salaries fully supported by nearly every Palestinian.
People get upset when one points out Palestinian adoration of murder. The headline of this article seems provocative to them. "There are good and bad people everywhere," they say. They ask how can you tar all people with the same brush, how can you generalize about people. They say that making generalizations about Palestinian society is racist.
But when you cannot find a single counterexample among dozens of Palestinian websites - not a single whisper that maybe it is counterproductive to murder Jews, let alone one that says that murdering Jews is immoral - you can only reach one conclusion: Palestinian culture supports and cheers terrorism. Sometimes tacitly, usually proudly, never reluctantly.
Please prove me wrong. Please find the Palestinian Arabic article that shows horror at the culture of death. You can't.
International media will never point these facts out. At best, they will mention in paragraph 15 that Hamas issued a statement supporting the attack, pretending that only terror groups praise these cold blooded murders and leaving ordinary Palestinians off the hook.
I used to think that everything I am writing here applied to virtually all Arabs - but things have changed. Arabs do not have to be stuck in this prison of hate. The UAE, Bahrain, Morocco show that it is possible to change. It is wonderful to see Arabs who transcended the brainwashing and the propaganda and who can think for themselves.
The world must understand these facts. The world must rebuke Palestinians for their open cheering of terrorism.
Until the world stops giving Palestinians a free pass for their hate - until the mainstream media actually reports the universal happiness at the death of ordinary Jews that permeates Palestinian society - Palestinians, living in their bubble of eternal victimhood and occasional revenge, have no incentive to change and become responsible, moral citizens of a normal society.
