About-to-be-again President Donald Trump has a message for Hamas and the world. If the hostages are not freed by January 20th, all hell will break out. In truth, all hell should have broken out 15 months ago. But it couldn’t because BBC News was asking about proportional responses and nearly-demented Joe Biden didn’t have the interest or the nerve to say those simple words.
Israel is barely breathing today. We are counting the days. Counting the days until Trump comes in but to be honest, we are counting the days when our hostages will be released even more. We are trying to breathe, knowing we will cry out in joy when they come home, and we will cry out in agony for those ones that don’t come home alive. All of the hostages are precious to us…the beautiful young women who have suffered unbearable acts of torture and pain, the young men who have been beaten and abused, the grandparents who have suffered, and the children…
We are close to finding out the fate of Kfir and Ariel Bibas. It is more than our hearts can handle. What are the chances that they are alive and if the are, please God, how will they ever learn to live in the light again, to trust again?
For now, we listen to Trump’s words and pray he is enough to scare Hamas. Clearly, Biden induced laughter, not fear. In a culture that demands strength, Biden showed weakness. In a world where peace and compromise are traits of an unworthy warrior, the West spoke a language that hurt the chances of our hostages coming home.
This was the simple message needed to make our enemies cower…all hell will break out in the Middle East if finally, our hostages are not released.
