Mel Alexenberg – ISRAEL’S OLIVE BRANCHES VS. HAMAS’ GUNS AND GRENADES
Comparing the emblems of Israel and Hamas tells the whole story!
Israel’s shows a menorah and olive branches representing light and peace.
Hamas’ shows rifles and hand grenades representing death and destruction. The genocidal Hamas terrorists aims to wipe Israel off the map and slaughter all its Jews.
Read Hamas Charter’s murderous intent in contrast with Israel’s Declaration of Independence’s offer of good neighborliness to understand how far we are from peace.
HAMAS’ CHARTER: “Israel, by virtue of its being Jewish and of having a Jewish population, defies Islam and the Muslims. Muslims will fight the Jews until the Jews hide behind rocks and trees, which will cry: O Muslim! there is a Jew hiding behind me, come on and kill him. I indeed wish to go to war for the sake of Allah! I will assault and kill, assault and kill, assault and kill.”
ISRAEL’S DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE: “The State of Israel will guarantee freedom of religion, conscience, language, education and culture. We extend our hand to all neighboring states and their peoples in an offer of peace and good neighborliness, and appeal to them to establish bonds of cooperation and mutual help with the sovereign Jewish people settled in its own land.”
Although I am an expert on the power of visual images as professor of art and education at Columbia University and research fellow at MIT Center for Advanced Visual Studies, anyone can see the radical difference between the values of Israel and Hamas in the design of their emblems.
Hamas initiated an attack on Israel by launching more than 4,000 rockets aimed at indiscriminately killing civilians. In addition to Jews who lost their lives, Hamas murdered an Arab-Israeli man and his beautiful 16 year-old daughter, an Indian caregiver, and Tai workers.
President of the United States Joe Biden says it clearly, “Let’s get something straight here, until the region says unequivocally they acknowledge the right of Israel to exist as an independent Jewish state, there will be no peace.”
