47,000, 'To Defeat Me...' Sasse's Letter. Media Shift. Love.

American equivalence Israeli's killed by Hamas Oct 6/7 47,000

Israel and all people's possessing human characteristics and values are facing a sea of barbaric animals who appear human but are driven by a radical religion that teaches hate. Hitler allegedly said: 'to defeat me you will become like me' and so his comments are proving prophetic, once again, vis a vis the need to defeat radical Muslims.

The degree American college students have been brainwashed is no surprise.  What is more distressing is the response, or lack thereof, by elite "quisling" Ivy League administrators etc.  Former Congressman, Ben Sasse, currently president of the University of Florida, proved a mensch by his recent comments. (Appeared in the October 13, 2023, print edition as 'Ben Sasse’s Letter to Jewish Gators'.)

Ben Sasse’s Letter on Israel to Jewish Gators
A model of moral clarity, compared with the mush from the Ivy League.
By The Editorial Board

In the face of Hamas’s atrocities, some U.S. college administrators at first said little or issued equivocating mush, such as what Dartmouth College put out Tuesday in its “Statement on the Israel-Gaza War.” A notable exception: University of Florida President Ben Sasse.

Here’s what Mr. Sasse wrote Tuesday in an email addressed to “Jewish Gator Alums,” which deserves to be quoted at length:

“I will not tiptoe around this simple fact: What Hamas did is evil and there is no defense for terrorism. This shouldn’t be hard. Sadly, too many people in elite academia have been so weakened by their moral confusion that, when they see videos of raped women, hear of a beheaded baby, or learn of a grandmother murdered in her home, the first reaction of some is to ‘provide context’ and try to blame the raped women, beheaded baby, or the murdered grandmother. In other grotesque cases, they express simple support for the terrorists.

“This thinking isn’t just wrong, it’s sickening. It’s dehumanizing. It is beneath people called to educate our next generation of Americans. I am thankful to say I haven’t seen examples of that here at UF, either from our faculty or our student body. . . .

“In the coming days, it is possible that anti-Israel protests will come to UF’s campus. I have told our police chief and administration that this university always has two foundational commitments: We will protect our students and we will protect speech. This is always true: Our Constitution protects the rights of people to make abject idiots of themselves. . . .

“When evil raises its head, as it has in recent days, it is up to men and women of conscience and courage to draw strength from truth and commit ourselves to the work of building something better—to the work of pursuing justice and pursuing peace. That is what we aim to do through education, compassion, and truth here at the University of Florida.”

What a statement. Somebody should tell this guy to run for public office. Now that the Ivies have been criticized for their initial equivocations, they should look to Florida for how to condemn mass murder, amazing as it remains that they apparently need a model.

Meanwhile:

A massive shift is happening in the American Media. The corporate elite news media has lost the trust of the American people.

New York Times huge layoffs...

BuzzFeed News out of business...

CNN closing divisions and selling off parts...

CBS downsizing...

Vice News out of business...

MSNBC off the rails...

Washington Post sacking staff...

Half the American people believe national news organizations intend to mislead, misinform, and push their bias and opinions on you and the American public.

FOX just showed an Israeli couple, both in the IDF, getting married.  The bride said" ' nothing can overcome love.' Contrast this beautiful expression with the barbarism of Hamas.
