Countering Annihilation

The armchair generals and world leaders

of a certain disposition, delighted to once

again find opportunity to express their

shocked reaction to an incident of conflict

whereby Israel and its Defense Forces are

condemned, in lock-step with the United Nations

Human Rights Council's demands for a ceasefire

all of which pleasure the Islamic Republic of Iran

and Hamas no end, proving their tactics of

bitter victimhood while victimizing those they

claim oppress them have won the support of

the international community which clamours

its approval of an 'underdog' launching endless

deadly raids against the people and the state

whose existence brings emotional discomfort

even as its rebirth as the historical Judaean

homeland brings emotional comfort and the

assurance of security to Jews themselves. In

responding to the never-ending series of savage

slaughters by dedicated murderers programmed

from birth to cunningly present as the oppressed

launching martyrs' brigades of lethality against

the Jewish State and Jews everywhere, the world

draws breath in horror at the inevitable consequence

of declarations of war, holding responsible the

recipient of obscene acts of terror, yet never the

terrorists proud of their mission of disbursing death

offering their own population as willing martyrs

while the terror leaders and their terrorist state 

sponsors evade consequences and preserve their

own lives, promising that no power on Earth will

deter them from ongoing bloodbaths for Jews

and Israel stands condemned for its existential 

refusal to go quietly into that dark night, in the

process demonstrating its singular power on Earth.
