I must say I'm not surprised ... the Israeli:Gaza death ratio is something like 1:50. Jews can expect more such attacks over the forthcoming years. Yes, Palestine/Gaza 'started' this latest conflict but a 1:50 response is not a proportionate one and the mass killing of innocent Palestinians did nothing to supress the militants, it probably increased their following. How many young survivors are now motivated to revenge the mass murder of innocent members of their family. Jews are already referring to the "killing of innocent people" but isn't that what they have done in Gaza? I'm not in any way condoning October 7th but what Israel did in response will have just added fuel to this fire.
The Jewish State of Israel has an Iron Dome to protect against reprisals upon it's citizens, but it doesn't have an Iron Dome to protect people of Jewish Faith around the world, who have now become targets thanks to the disproportionate genocidal actions of the Israeli Government against Palestinians and the indiscriminate killing of Lebanese, Iranians and anyone they consider to be an enemy of the State of Israel...with bullets and bombs all supplied by the good 'ol US of A.
If I were Jewish (which I am not), and I did not live in Israel with the Iron Dome and other protection, in the interests of self-preservation, I would never show my faith anywhere outside of my front door.
I would expect the planned Israeli:Gaza death ratio is more like 1:100 to act as a totally disproportionate deterrent - 'you kill one of ours we will kill 100 of yours'.
I re-watched 'Bowling for Columbine (2002)' by Michael Moore the other day...a timely reminder that the USA have learnt nothing since 9/11.
