Rewarding Oct 7 Will Globalize Oct 7

Rewarding Oct 7 Will Globalize Oct 7

And the next Oct 7 attacks may happen in Paris, London or New York City.

“The powerful blow that was delivered to Israel on October 7 has yielded three very important historic achievements. First of all, it brought the Palestinian cause back. Why are all these countries recognizing Palestine now? Had any country dared to recognize the state of Palestine, prior to October 7?” Hamas leader Ghazi Hammad bragged in August.

After the latest push to recognize the terrorist state at the UN, Hamad again took credit. ”what is the benefit of October 7th? If you look at the UN General Assembly yesterday… they condemned Israel.”

What comes next?

Hamad already told us less than a month after the Oct 7 attacks. “The Al-Aqsa flood (the Hamas name for the Oct 7 attacks) is just the first time, and there will be a second, a third, a fourth because we have the determination, the resolve, and the capabilities to fight,” he bragged.

There is no reason not to believe him. And no reason to think the attacks will be limited to Israel.

Once the PFLP’s airline hijackings proved that they were an effective political strategy, they intensified and when the Israelis successfully deterred future hijackings, the Marxist-Muslim terrorists switched to hijacking European planes. And then a whole spectrum of other radical groups around the world adopted the strategy leading to metal detectors, the TSA and 9/11.

Will another Oct 7 succeed? Maybe not in Israel, but the same European countries pushing to recognize a ‘Palestinian’ state have their own Muslim ‘no-go zones’ and ‘states within a state’.

What might happen if 1,000 heavily armed Muslim terrorists banded together to strike in London, Paris, Berlin or Brussels?

We don’t have to imagine too hard.

In 2015, 3 Muslim terrorists entered the Bataclan theater in Paris where over 1,000 people were enjoying a concert. It took the French police over two hours to finally take them down.

(Everyone wondering why it took so long for Israel to repel the Oct 7 attacks may want to look at how long it took to wrap up terrorist attacks with hostages during the Pulse massacre in Florida (3 hours), the Moscow theater attack (4 days), the Beslan school siege in Russia (3 days) and consider what our response time would look like in the event of a much bigger terrorist attack.)

What would Oct 7 look like in London, Paris or New York City? Worse, much worse.

The Hamas, PLO, Islamic Jihad and other terrorists had to break through a border wall and travel a distance to reach even the nearest Israeli city where they were soon repelled. In Europe, not to mention Canada and Australia, they’re already embedded in those cities

The Israeli communities on the Gaza border were soft and liberal, but they still had security coordinators, arms caches and a defense plan. Where would they go to find guns?

After July 23, 1968, Muslim terrorists never successfully hijacked another Israeli plane. Instead they hijacked planes from all the countries that had pandered to them. There may never be another successful Oct 7 in Israel, but rewarding Islamic terrorists ensures there will be one.

Perhaps in Toronto, in Sydney, in Marseilles or in New York City.

Like that long ago airplane hijacking in 1968, Oct 7 was a political victory for Muslim terrorists. That means it’s going to be repeated the way that successful strategies usually are. The bigger the reward, the greater the repetition. Rewarding Oct 7 will globalize the October 7 attacks.

After the UN’s recognition of a terrorist state as a reward for Oct 7, the next such attack may not take place on Israel’s borders, but in the streets of Manhattan right by the United Nations.
