No Crime is Too Heinous for the Countries that Adopt So-Called Democratic Values

News:

A CNN headline today reported “At least 90 Palestinians reported killed in Israeli strike targeting Hamas military chief.” Indescribable horror has been a near daily occurrence for Gaza with the active support of Western democracies: “CNN identified the tail fin of a Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM), a Boeing-manufactured GPS-guided kit which can be added to so-called ‘dumb bombs’ to direct them at a specific target. Trevor Ball, a former US Army explosive ordnance disposal technician, confirmed the identification of the JDAM tail at the scene for CNN. Similar CNN analysis has found US-made munitions were used in a strike on a school complex near Khan Younis and in other Israeli strikes on Gaza.”

Comment:

The Zionist state for Jews justified the attack saying they were targeting Hamas, but they always claim that, and thereby no amount of civilian deaths is ever too much for them. The UK, the US and Germany are actively supporting this; so where are the so-called ‘human rights’ and ‘humanitarian values’ of democracy?’

The answer is that there aren’t any! Really, there are not. Not in democracy. These things are just conventions that Western States haphazardly agreed upon amongst themselves to regulate their numerous wars against each other that gradually got codified starting from the American Civil War. Therefore, while all these codifications, such as the Geneva Conventions, are products of the democracies, they are not intrinsic to democracy, and can be easily abandoned; especially when they become an impediment to the subjugation of Muslims. That is because Islam is political in nature; and if implemented, it would end their materialistic reign of destruction on the planet and its poor peoples.

Unlike ‘human rights’, ‘the ends justify the means’ is an intrinsic Western democratic value, and being more fundamental than human rights allows for any crime, if the goal is judged to be worthy enough. This is what is happening in Gaza now. All chivalry and nobility in war is an extinct relic of previous ages for the so-called ‘enlightened’ Western democracies.

Not so Islam; whose rules of Jihad, which the mindless democratic barbarians drunk on their materialistic philosophies call terrorism, placed inviolable rules of conduct to the waging of war. How incredible that Jihad, which they vilify, is the opposite of what they say and what they do. Democracy guarantees no mercy, but Islam enshrined mercy at the deepest most emphatic level:

[وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَاكَ إِلَّا رَحْمَةً لِّلْعَالَمِينَ]

“We have not sent you except as mercy to the worlds” [Surat Al-Anbiya 21:107].
