Hamas knew that by crossing into Israel and murdering, raping and kidnapping its civilians, it was signing a death warrant for many Gazan civilians whom Hamas intended to use as human shields.

Left Discovers Free Speech (“For Me, Not Thee”)
Leftists who have been on the forefront in denying free speech rights to those deemed politically incorrect have now begun to champion the First Amendment in defense of those who advocate the killing of Jews.
“Context Matters”
For Harvard President Gay, context apparently matters only for genocidal threats against Jews.
Hamas’ Useful Idiots
The protests are exclusively anti-Israel, anti-American, pro-Hamas, and pro-terrorism.
Iran’s Proxy War on the United States
The United States and Israel must assume that unless it is stopped, Iran will soon — how soon is always a matter of degree — have a nuclear arsenal.
Muslim Lives Matter
Does a dead Muslim baby matter less if she was killed by a Muslim than by a Jew?
Colorado Supreme Court Violated The U.S. Constitution By Removing Donald Trump From The Ballot
The 14th Amendment was never intended to be used to deny voters the right to decide who their next president would be in all future elections.
Is The Israeli Government Committing Genocide in Gaza?
Accusing Israel of ‘Genocide’ Reflects, at Best, Ignorance of the Term’s Meaning and, at Worst, Complicity With Hamas Terrorists.
The Hard Left Has Finally Discovered Free Speech
Today’s “progressives” champion the First Amendment when it comes in defense of those who advocate the killing of Jews.
Doctors Without Borders Acts Like a Hamas Front
Doctors Without Borders holds itself out to be a politically neutral medical provider that cares about all people equally. That was its pretend pose when it won the Nobel Peace Prize. In actuality, it was always a hard-left group that played politics with medicine. But recent events have exposed the depths of its bigotry and destroyed its fraudulent claims of neutrality.
Harvard President Claudine Gay Should Resign
In her testimony last week, Gay defended her refusal to punish students who call for genocide against Jews by asserting that “we embrace a commitment to full expression.”
Claudine Gay’s Double Standard on Freedom of Speech Renders Her Unfit To Lead Harvard
It was no surprise to me that Harvard was ranked dead last among major universities in supporting free speech.
Israel is Not Morally Required to Sacrifice its People to Save Gazan Civilians
To sacrifice victory in order to placate the civilians of Gaza, or to reduce criticism of Israel from the biased international community, academia or the media, would be wrong, both morally and strategically.
Hamas Murders Palestinian Babies
The media needs to condemn Hamas for using Palestinian babies and civilians as shields.
Counting the Deaths in Gaza
There is often no sharp line between combatants and civilians when it comes to Hamas terrorists and their facilitators, since Hamas does not have a regular army with uniforms and other criteria for distinguishing between the two.
Anti-Israel and Pro-Hamas Protests are Not Pro-Palestinian
Anyone who joins these “pro-Palestine” protests or signs their petitions should know what they’re supporting: not the Palestinian people who seek peace but Hamas terrorists who seek to destroy Israel and the Jewish people.
Right Approach to the Pro-Hamas Protests
The First Amendment gives anti-Israel protesters the right to be immoral. It gives them the right to lie and to reflect antisemitic bigotry. The First Amendment, though, also gives us the right, indeed the responsibility, to call out this immorality, mendacity, and double standard.
Stop Hamas and Hezbollah By Punishing Iran
No matter how much damage Israel inflicts on the Hamas military, Iran-inspired terrorism will not be deterred.
Hamas Terrorists Use The West’s Morality as a Weapon Against Israel
The collateral deaths of Palestinian civilians, caused directly by the Hamas decision to use them as human shields, would be the moral, political, and legal responsibility of Hamas.
Why Do Islamic Jihad and Hamas Fire Rockets From “Safe Zones” for Palestinian Families?
Every time a Palestinian or Israeli civilian is killed, Hamas wins. That’s why they use children and women as human shields. That’s why they boast that their civilians love death in the way Israelis love life. That is why Islamic jihad fires rockets from areas near hospitals.
