Baruch Dayan HaEmes ~ 3 Killed in Kiryat Malachi

From Michael Freund's facebook page by way of Israel Matzav:

 

 

 

A Palestinian rocket struck an Israeli home in Kiryat Malachi ["city of angels"} a short while ago, killing 3 Israelis and wounding 2 others, including the baby covered in blood in the picture below.

Take a long, hard look at this photo - this is what Israel is contending with.

 

 

Four others were injured in the terror attack, two seriously.

 

At least 70 Israelis have been injured in the last 24 hours.

 

Meanwhile, the New York Times was confused about whether rockets have indeed been fired into Israel. According to that fishwrap, the Israeli military operation that commenced [yesterday] is “in response to what Israel called repeated rocket attacks.” 

.... The Times is also uncertain about the nature of Hamas, a U.S.- and Israeli-designated terrorist organization. The Times reports that Hamas is a “militant organization regarded by Israel as a terrorist group sworn to Israel’s destruction.”

The Times’ description is contradicted by Hamas, the leaders of which regard Hamas as a terrorist group sworn to Israel’s destruction.

“This is a nation of martyrdom and martyrdom-seeking,” said Hamas leader Ismail Haniyah, who perhaps was chastising the New York Times for liberal bias. “A nation of jihad for the sake of Allah,” he affirmed.

Hamas parliamentarian Ahmad Bahr added, “O Allah, vanquish the Jews and their supporters.” He concluded, “O Allah, vanquish the Americans and their supporters. O Allah, count their numbers, and kill them all, down to the very last one.”

Abdallah Jardu, another Hamas official, also contradicted the New York Times. The Jews “want to present themselves to the world as if they have rights, but, in fact, they are foreign bacteria—a microbe unparalleled in the world,” he said.

Jardu concluded, “May [Allah] annihilate this filthy people who have neither religion nor conscience.”

 

Todah to Staff at the Washington Free Beacon for their excellent reporting. 

 

Carl in Jerusalem: "Maybe we need to put the Times' reporters on a rooftop in Kiryat Malachi or Beersheva..."

Dream on... but yes, if only we could.

Since, I suppose, virtually everyone who works at the NYT is a graduate of an elite American college, it's no surprise that the NYT is a bastion of Postmodernism -- the ideology with which students at our elite schools are now routinely brainwashed. The basic axiom of Postmodernism is, of course, that there is no such thing as "the Truth." There are only individual "truths" -- subjective versions of what happened or what is happening. We can never get beyond these personalized truths to the real truth -- because there is no such thing as the real truth. Our own private and highly-opinionated truths are all we shall ever have. The "Truth" -- a provable, unassailable version of what happened or what is happening -- is a figment, an illusion, a fiction, no more real than a centaur. That's why the NYT can write about Hamas's attacks on Israel as it does. Its on-the-one-hand-on-the-other-hand approach is designed to let us know it's aware that there's no True account of what's going on in Israel -- there are only versions, each calling itself true. The funny thing is that, at the end of the day, after the NYT has labored mightily to prove to us that it stands above the fray and isn't taking sides in this battle of the truths, it always ends up taking the side of Hamas. Somehow, Hamas's version of events always ends up being truer than Israel's version -- even though, according to Postmodernism, there's no such thing as "truer" or "falser." By some strange alchemy, then, Hamas's versions always end up being truer. Always, always, always. So much for Postmodernism. In the end, the Left preaches it -- but doesn't believe a word of it. It's a monumental hoax -- and it's corrupting our young people at an alarming rate.
