Showing Original Post only (View all)Senator Schumer: Condoning Terror Against Israel Led to Paris Attacks [View all]
100% truth.
Because the world failed to rise up against terrorism directed against Israel beginning in the 1970s, the type of terrorism witnessed last Friday across Paris, killing more than 130 people, has been allowed to propagate, Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said on Sunday, according to the Jewish Daily Insider.
Israel and the Jewish people have been subject to the same type of terrorism since the 70s. And for so long, when it just happened to Israel, the world condoned it. They (may have not) condoned it, but maybe didnt do much about it, and Israel had to fight terrorism on her own, said Schumer....
....And, because the world did not rise up, this terrorism, like a cancer, has spread throughout the world, he said.
Had the world come down when the terrorists shot the Israeli athletes at the Olympics (in Munich, 1972), or hijacked El AL planes, and come down on them hard, we wouldnt have had what happened in Paris, today, said Schumer, according to the report.
The message other than fighting terrorism is to make sure that when its directed at one nation like it has been directed in Israel for now decades its directed at every nation. And the world must unite to defend Israel against the terrorism that is used against her day in and day out, he said.

I hope he's alone in that assessment, because that was actually a moronic thing to say.
