The Supreme Leader of Iran, Ali Khameneiduring Friday prayers in Tehran, gave a speech that makes it clear that what guides the souls of these terrorists has little to do with the desire for justice for their own people.
Raping women, slaughtering children, what a singular vision of resistance. Tuesday evening’s attack in Jaffa would also have been an act of resistance. But the only feeling that moves these militiamen is hatred towards Israel and Israelisthere is nothing noble in their intentions. These are not bad ways to pursue legitimate interests.
We are witnessing a war between a democratic state, such as Israel, and gods fanatics religious unprincipled, immoral, devoid of ethics. They do not have to answer to public opinion, much less to international law. It’s difficult to play cleanly with those who play dirty.
The number of civilian deaths as a result of Israel’s responses brings tears to the hearts of anyone. But this should above all fuel contempt for those who use how human shields women and children, do not delegitimize Israel’s response.
How can lasting peace be guaranteed as long as these terrorist organizations exist? How could there ever be freedom in the regions where Islamic fundamentalists rule?
Where there is Islamic radicalism there is no freedom, there is no democracy, there is no justice. A world without these subjects is a freer worldmore democratic, more just. For this reason, Israel is not fighting an important war only for the Middle East, but also for the West, which has paid, and still pays, a heavy price for having to deal with those who transform religion into the only law to comply with.
