I’ve already started to get pushback over my support of Israel. I’m glad they have struck the Iranian nuclear facilities in Iran.
But just a few minutes ago, the condemnation of Israel got me to thinking. The images and sounds of James Foley being beheaded on video by ISIS in 2014 came to mind. Yes, I watched it – and it scarred me.
However, it wasn’t the last video I unwisely witnessed. There were many more beheadings, burnings, men being tossed off rooftops, stoning, even a poor man crushed by a tank from his feet to his head (I saw his brain ejected from his skull).
Yes, I’ve seen them with my own eyes. One may argue I shouldn’t have. But at least no one can tell me it didn’t happen (and this was long before AI).
Yet, do you want to know what I have NEVER seen? I’ve never seen a single video posted of an Israeli sawing the head off of a Muslim while shouting “YHWH IS GREAT!”
Anyone besides me find that ironic?
