Thank you for clearly articulating the struggle between Israel and Hamas and the rest of the world. Antisemitism is a dark and destructive evil that has manifested itself throughout Israel’s history. The only reason the West stands up for Hamas is because they live in free countries and have freedom of speech. If they lived in Palestine or Afghanistan or Iran it would be a different story.
Thank you for an inspiring essay laying out what is really at stake in the war against Islamic terrorism.
In those terrible days after Oct 7, it was especially nauseating to hear political leaders, like both Senators from Massachusetts, calling for "de-escalation" instead of justice.
The only way to peace in this instance is Palestinian passivism. Of course this is antithetical to jihad. At some point we either need to submit, or confront jihad. Along with our politicians we all seem to pretend that the jihadi's are just kidding. They aren't kidding, they are playing the oldest game in the book. A small minority of ruthless people have ruled mankind for most of its existence. Mao was no dummy. Power comes from the business end of a firearm. We fail to understand our own history.
I hope and pray with you Ayaan, that what you have wrked so long - may be truly joined to the hearts and souls of all who see truth, know truth and desire truth this OCTOBER 7. I grew up in Zanzibar- a peaceful Archipelago under an OMANI Sultan, willing and able to get all our Tiny Minorities- Catholic, Hindu, Zoroastrian, Anglicans, Seychellois to work with Afro Shriazi Arabs.
Bloody Revolution ripped it all apart and ended that dream - "COLD" WAR 80 years ago now HOT
Aayan writes from a morally pure perspective. She has lived life under Islamic repression and she has a deep understanding of the evils in the world. As a philosemitic Christian, I stand with her in support of Israel at this time. I wrote my dear friends in Israel this morning to affirm my support for their families and them. I pray for peace but have a certain skepticism about the willingness and ability of the Palestinian people to embrace the kind of fundamental change in their worldview that is necessary for regional peace. May God Himself intervene in this regard!
As always, thank you for your moral clarity, from the bottom of my heart.
Great analysis—thank you! I’m still flabbergasted at the antisemitism of Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson.

One thing I don’t understand: How can political leaders recognize a State that doesn’t exist?
That's easy. Politicians are very good at pretending.. This is why the UN is worthless.

This essay is an eloquent response.

I agree, Orenv. Islam is at war with the West and everything we call civilization. “Co-Exist” is not in their vocabulary.
