Rage destroys, consumes, and obliterates. Outrage is a healthy response to an outrageous event or behavior that calls for action.
Since October 7, there have been so many rage-inducing comments, people, and events, it’s hard to know which is worst.
Just consider the last ten days alone:
- The UN held a moment of silence for the Butcher of Tehran.
- The US Senate Chaplain offered prayers for Iran for the same loss.
- The US State Department also sent condolences to Tehran.
- The ICC equated evil Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar with Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu.
- Germany, the country that perpetrated a genocide and the greatest atrocity in history, said they would issue an arrest warrant for Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu.
- The IJC ordered Israel to stop its Rafah operation.
- Nobel laureate Maria Ressa delivered Harvard’s commencement speech filled with vile, explicit antisemitic tropes.
- New, horrific video was released of female IDF soldiers being taken by Hamas on Oct. 7.
- Bodies of hostages who were killed on October 7th were recovered.
- Israel continues to be accused of causing a famine in Gaza despite a new study that found food supply to Gaza is more than sufficient for the population’s needs and only 54 percent of the pallets transferred into Gaza were dispatched by UN and humanitarian agencies operating in Gaza.
- Ireland, Spain and Norway said they will recognize a Palestinian state.
- Israel was falsely accused of intentionally targeting civilians in a refugee camp in Rafah even though they struck two senior Hamas in the Tel Sultan area of western Rafah which is outside of the “humanitarian zone.” Moreover, the IDF released an intercepted phone call between two Gaza residents in which they suggest that shrapnel from an Israeli airstrike caused the detonation of Hamas munitions hidden inside or near the refugee camp.
