Commandment to exterminate the Amalekites[edit]

From man unto woman, from infant unto suckling, from ox unto sheep, so that the name of Amalek not be mentioned even with reference to an animal by saying “This animal belonged to Amalek”.

In Judaism, three of the 613 mitzvot (commandments) involve Amalek: to remember what the Amalekites did to the Israelites, not to forget what the Amalekites did to Israelites, and to destroy the Amalekites utterly. The rabbis derived these from Deuteronomy 25:17–18, Exodus 17:14 and 1 Samuel 15:3. Rashi explains the third commandment:

From man unto woman, from infant unto suckling, from ox unto sheep, so that the name of Amalek not be mentioned even with reference to an animal by saying “This animal belonged to Amalek”.

As enumerated by Maimonides, the three mitzvot state:

598 Deut. 25:17 – Remember what Amalek did to the Israelites
599 Deut. 25:19 – Wipe out the descendants of Amalek
600 Deut. 25:19 – Not to forget Amalek’s atrocities and ambush on our journey from Egypt in the desert

Some commentators have discussed the ethical deficiency of the commandment to exterminate all the Amalekites, especially including the command to kill children, and the presumption of collective punishment.^{[40][41][42][43]} It has also been described as genocidal, according to genocide scholars like Norman Naimark.^{[44][45][46][47]}

In fact, genocide, racism, and exploitation under Ferengi Rule are the actual Western “values”.

Imagine what Israel is currently doing in Gaza would have been done by the Russians in Ukraine; what the reaction of the “Civilised” Vest would have been …

I am terribly ashamed because Romania “stands” in support of Israel.

Not to mention Romania’s position concerning the “Russia vs. Ukraine” war… I think it is true that every Nation has the Leader that it deserves.

P.S.: Terrorism is the war of the week, war is the terrorism of the powerful.

The root of racism is the belief that there are two races, one superior and one inferior AND the conviction that you can do anything to the inferior race – and that will not rise any moral questions.
Terrorism is the systematic use of intentionally indiscriminate violence against public civilian targets to influence a wider audience.

PS. There is something above the good and evil (Reason). We have to find the answer to the question: WHY?

Israel was hurt. Badly. As customary, it dismissed the UN resolutions, and instead of Reason it chose Revenge. Now, its choice is to bomb the Gaza concentration camp – that it itself administers. Its officials demonstrated that for Israel, killing the prisoners does not raise any kind of moral problem; more than that – they act as if it is morally justified. Instead of Holly, it chose to work UnHolly. This action has a name. Yes, exactly. I have a deja vu…

It could have been chosen wisely instead…The British made to the Jewish nation a precious gift – half of the home of the Palestinians. Two states. Israel and Palestina.The Arabs were hardly pushed and finally half-heartedly agreed (though it is not fair that the Palestinians have to pay for the wrongs that the Germans did to the Jews).

The Israelis appreciated that this gift was not enough for such special people as themselves (with Adam – as opposed to all non-Jewish people, that do not have Adam) and opposed vehemently. Don’t even attend the UN assembly that discussed that. They wanted more. They want more. They deserve more; more…and more…and more… They have chosen Expansion over Security.

Terrorism is “the systematic use of intentionally indiscriminate violence against public civilian targets to influence a wider audience”. Who is the one at the moment doing it?

Terrorism is the war of the weak. War is the terrorism of the powerful.

Greater Israel? We’ll see…

Rusii nu au inceput razboaie dar cand au fost atacati le-au terminat in capitala atacatorului.

Coalition of the willing… Kurukshetra is near.

De care parte ne vom aseza noi, Romania? Iar de partea gresita?
