Ask an Israeli child what he hopes to achieve when he grows up, and he will say saving lives, discover cures, invent new technologies or break world records. If religious - to be a great Torah scholar and a Tzadik.
Ask many a Palestinian child the same question and all they’ll say is to kill as many Jews they can, hoping to die as a martyr in the process. There is literally not one Israeli child who strives to kill as many innocent people as possible and then die a martyr.
That is the only unique cultural idiosyncrasy of Palestinianism;
Their food is Moroccan, their language is Arabic, their music is Egyptian, their religion is Saudi, their ancestry is Jordanian.
The only thing that unifies them as a people is their compulsive obsession with murdering Jews.
They have no societal ambitions, they innovate nothing, they produce nothing, they offer the world nothing. They only aspire, in large part, for destruction and death.

"There is no such country as Palestine. Palestine is a Zionist invention"
-Awni Bey Abdul Hadi, an Arab leader, Jerusalem, 1937.
"There is no such thing as 'Palestine' in history, absolutely not."
-Prof. Philip K. Hitti, distinguished Arab historian, author of the authoritative book "The Arabs", 1946.
"Such a creature as Palestine does not exist at all"
-Ahmad Shukeiri, secretary of the League of Arab Countries, 1956.
"The Palestinian people does not exist... there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians, and Lebanese. Between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese there are no differences. We are all part of one people, the Arab nation. Solely for political reasons are we careful to stress our identity as Palestinians. Since a separate State of Palestine would be an extra weapon in Arab hands to fight Zionism with. Yes, we do call for the creation of a Palestinian state for tactical reasons. Such a state would be a new means of continuing the battle against Zionism, and for Arab unity.’
- former head of the PLO bureau of military operations, Zuhair Mohsen in 1977
"A state named 'Palestine' has never existed." -Hafez al-Assad, President of Syria, at a conference in Amman in 1987.
"Brothers, half the Palestinians are Egyptians, the other half are Arabs (i.e. from the Arab peninsula/KSA)"
-Hamas Minister of Interior, Fathi Hammad, in an interview on Egyptian Al-Helma TV, 23 March 2012.
"Jordanians and Palestinians are one people living in two states."
-Mahmoud Abbas, president of the PA, 20 Oct 2016.
‘We do not treat the Jews as our enemies just because they occupied Palestine or because they occupied a precious part of our Arab and Islamic world. We will treat the Jews as our enemies even if they return Palestine to us, because they are infidels. They rejected Allah and His messengers.’
-Muhammed Al-Muraikhi, a Qatari sheikh on Qatar TV, January 9, 2009
‘If the Jews left Palestine to us, would we start loving them? Of course not. We will never love them, absolutely not. The Jews are infidels – not because I say so, and not because they are killing Muslims […] It is Allah who said they are infidels. […] Allah said “You shall find the strongest men in enmity to the believers to be the Jews and the polytheists.” [Qur’an 5:82…] This is it. We must believe that our fighting with the Jews is eternal, and it will not end until the final battle […] You must believe that we will fight, defeat and annihilate them, until not a single Jew remains on the face of the Earth […] The curse of Allah [be] upon you, whose ancestors were apes and pigs.” [Qur’an 5:59-60]’
-Egyptian Cleric, Muhammed Hussein Ya’quob, MEMRI, January 17, 2009
‘Our war with the descendants of the apes and pigs is a war of religion and faith.’
-Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik, ‘PA Mufti: Muslims’ destiny is to kill Jews,’ Palestinian Media Watch, January 15, 2012
‘Killing Jews is worship that draws us close to Allah’.
-Hamas music video, 2012, ibid.
‘Although our cause is Islamic, when we market and present it to people, I believe that it should be presented as a “humanitarian cause”. If I talk to Jews and tell them that my cause is Islamic, they’re out. It’s over. […] The same is true when I tell a Christian that my cause is Islamic.’
-Imam at New Jersey Islamic Center Workshop: ‘Palestine Cause Is ‘Islamic’ but Must Be Marketed as ‘Humanitarian’ to Garner Everybody’s Support; Speakers Praise BDS, Say Israel Likely to Cease Existing within 50 Years,’ MEMRI, November 17, 2018

In the attached video, you see Israel’s hero, Major Yitzhar Hoffman (z”l), captured on camera helping a Palestinian woman who had been abandoned by her own people in Gaza. Just one day later, Yitzhar fell in battle馃挃murdered by a Palestinian sniper.
He was the salt of the earth. A beloved commander. A pure soul who never lost his moral compass, always pointing it toward humanity, even in the heart of darkness.
While so many so-called “innocent Gazans” cheer on terror and actively take part in the attempt to destroy Israel, our IDF soldiers continue to act with morality, restraint, and deep reverence for life, even when facing pure evil, every single day.
There is no moral equivalence between us and the Islamist jihadist terrorists we fight against.
We have morals. They have none.
We create. They destroy.
We operate in good faith. They work tirelessly to eradicate the good.
They glorify death. We fight to protect life.
Good will overcome evil.
May the memory of Major Yitzhar Hoffman forever be a blessing.
And may his light guide us always, reminding us who we are and what we’re fighting for 馃嚠馃嚤✡️
Am Israel Chai.
