Israel: A terror state through time

The modern state of Israel is a relatively new phenomenon that would not exist were it not for a generation of terror unleashed on the former inhabitants of the land. Before May 31, 1948, the land now known as Israel was called Palestine. It was taken over at the leadership of David Ben Gurion, a Polish man who transformed the former Zionist terror groups known as Haganah, Stern Irgun, and Palmach into what is now known as Israel Defense Forces, or the IDF. Israel as it currently exists is a settler-colonial state, meaning it was captured by force and turned into what it is today: a major point of contention in the Middle East. The Palestinians, as they are now called, remain at odds with the Israeli settlers who took their land. Because Israel has not yet achieved its final endgame for the region, the fighting continues as the IDF wages war in both Gaza and the West Bank. Israel is also trying to push Lebanon and its Hezbollah forces further north, not to mention Israel's ongoing problems with Iran. There is much animosity between the two sides as the Palestinians feel as though Israel has stolen their land while Israel feels as though God gave them the land to take. As a result, there has been much bloodshed over the years as the two sides duke it out for the spoils. (Related: Did you know that Israel plays recordings of children crying to trick Palestinian parents into making themselves visible so they can be shot to death by IDF snipers?)

Who are the real terrorists?

As ugly as the events of Oct. 7, 2023, were, it remains a fact that Israel let down its guard that day, allowing Hamas fighters easy access. This appears to have been intentional to allow Israel to manufacture tales about babies baked in ovens and women raped as a pretext for a full-scale invasion of Gaza. The methods that the IDF has been using to fight Hamas are nothing short of terrorism, at least as the United Nations (UN) General Assembly defines the term as "causing death or serious bodily harm to civilians for the purpose of intimidating a population." "Entire residential buildings are reduced to rubble in the name of 'assassinating' resistance fighters, whether in Gaza, the West Bank, or even Beirut," writes Khalil Harb for The Cradle. "The Israeli government has normalized bloody attacks on hospitals, churches, and mosques and weaponized communications technology to annihilate people in homes, offices, and streets en masse – to strike fear into civilians and force them into submission." From the very beginning, Israel has acted defiantly with regard to international law and even basic moral principles. One can tell from looking at the way Israel behaves that its leaders and some of its people feel as though they are superior to the rest of the world, and should thus be afforded special privileges as "God's chosen." "Terrorism is the most powerful weapon for Israel, the 'gang state' that is now nicknamed 'Netanyahu's gang,' and its security and military apparatuses," Harb further writes. "This gang mentality has long been part of the Zionist ideology, which cloaks its goals in lofty religious rhetoric while simultaneously unleashing depraved acts of violence and domination." "Almost a century later, Israel still struggles to attain legitimate standing, its existence perpetually marred by its violent birth and sustained oppression of the Palestinians." Ben Gurion, it should also be noted, was engaged in campaigns of ethnic cleansing and displacement, as was Ukrainian Zionist Ze'ev Jabotinsky who was the first to call for the militarization of Zionism to confront the indigenous populations of what is now considered to be the land of Israel.
