Sacrificing Children to the Glory of Martyrdom

 Image

 Behold, an idiosyncratic perspective tinted by ideology 

binds the thinker to irrational thought and conclusion. 

Take for example those sheltering in Gaza and the 

West Bank under the nurturing empathy of the UNRWA

umbrella whose school curricula include texts aimed 

at children from kindergarten on that glorify martyrdom 

as the highest form of aspiration pleasing to G_d 

and with that emblematic fervour that only children 

can muster turns them into nascent terrorists

awaiting adolescence when the time is deemed

ripe for action that will deprive others of their

lives, elevating the attacker to celebrity status.

These and children taught to attack randomly

to take lives and die in their mission performing

another glorious function for the dedicated agents

of death; persuading the global community

that Israel mundanely murders Arab children in 

routine sweeps of ghoulish child targeting

purporting self-defense. Turn your eyes to Yemen 

where Houthi forces routinely school children 

to martyrdom in emulation of their terrorist ilk

in Gaza. The likeness of technique becomes a 

recognized commonality; sacrificing children to 

the greater glory of conquest over ideological

enemies in sectarian violence. A connection the 

larger Muslim Arab community is uncommonly

 affronted by as a hostile allegation of hypocrisy.
