How Do You Negotiate—With Evil?
Bob Hoge

I vividly remember thinking to myself, “It’s getting close to bedtime” on the evening of October 7, 2023. But then my wife called and said, “Turn on the TV—NOW.”

I watched as Fox News reporter Trey Yingst described an unfolding attack against Israel, apparently by the terrorist group Hamas. I (incredulously) reported on it that night, and myriad times in the months following, and even though I was appalled by the slaughter, I was not prepared for the true evil that it turned out unfolded on that day.

Babies killed. Women raped. Innocents assassinated in cold blood. Hundreds of young people enjoying their lives brutally massacred at a music festival. It could have been my kids. It could have been yours.

The images haunt me to this day. As more and more information was revealed showing the true depravity of the Hamas assailants, it became clear to me that there was only one word for what we witnessed: evil.

Actually, make it three words: pure, unadulterated evil.

The destruction of Israel and the eradication of Jews is in the Hamas founding charter.  You can't negotiate with that.

Right

What would you negotiate?
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

You cannot negotiate with evil and anyone proposing to do so is evil.

The evilness of the DEM party is blatantly obvious; AOC, Omar are just two examples.  Harris applauds them and likewise anyone that would applaud evil is evil and I should also add; anti-America.  Anyone that would vote for them are anti-America as well.

Anyone that promotes Hamas and continues to allow them to enter this country (Harris) is just plain evil.  Hamas has vowed to kill us, so what part of Harris is anti-America don't people grasp?

Maybe  Israel should negotiate with HAMAS to only kill them a little bit?

Negotiate in bad faith?

Replace the arms Iran ships them with rockets that explode in the launchers and bullets that explode in the firearms.

Replace all their tunnel concrete mix with plaster of Paris.

It would be a shame if all them Hamas were killed or maimed by "defective arms and concrete from Iran"

Also, replace their normal coffee with Folger's instant crystals.  That will ruin their mornings.

Since 2018, Bibi authorized monthly transfers from Qatar to Hamas (physically carried through Israel) of an estimated total one billion US dollars  Was this a negotiation with Hamas? 

Keep in mind, Bibi personally authorized what would be the last transfer in Sept 2023.

I see, another IT’S THE JOOOOS FAULT! post. I can’t believe that I for some insane reason thought you might just might have made a post dealing with Israel defending itself against psychopathic religious fanatics that wasn’t utter bull, er horse, er, nope there’s no way around it, CRAP!

Pointing out that Bibi has always negotiated with Hamas, including: during grass mowing operations, for Palestinian job visas, and for a multi-million (unaudited) monthly allowance paid to Hamas raises a legitimate question:  what new game is Bibi playing?   If you listen, you'll hear the Israelis asking this question as they march through the streets.

Does God "negotiate" with evil? I think not. So why should any of us?

I think that last one is against the Geneva Accords or something.

I kinda like the other ideas. Even a compound that would become chemically unstable over time and become flammable or even explosive...

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
