Läser och hör att Hamas godkänt vaccinering av barnen i Gaza mot polio. Förstår inte vad det ska tjäna till, nämligen eftersom Hamas ändå avser använda dem som mänskliga sköldar och kanonmat.
Kommer då att tänka på vad överste Kurtz uttalade i filmen ”Apocalypse Now”. Inte minst apropå poliovaccinering. Läs nu noga:
”Kurtz : I’ve seen horrors… horrors that you’ve seen. But you have no right to call me a murderer. You have a right to kill me. You have a right to do that… but you have no right to judge me. It’s impossible for words to describe what is necessary to those who do not know what horror means. Horror… Horror has a face… and you must make a friend of horror. Horror and moral terror are your friends. If they are not, then they are enemies to be feared. They are truly enemies! I remember when I was with Special Forces… seems a thousand centuries ago. We went into a camp to inoculate some children. We left the camp after we had inoculated the children for polio, and this old man came running after us and he was crying. He couldn’t see. We went back there, and they had come and hacked off every inoculated arm. There they were in a pile. A pile of little arms. And I remember… I… I… I cried, I wept like some grandmother. I wanted to tear my teeth out; I didn’t know what I wanted to do! And I want to remember it. I never want to forget it… I never want to forget. And then I realized… like I was shot… like I was shot with a diamond… a diamond bullet right through my forehead. And I thought, my God… the genius of that! The genius! The will to do that! Perfect, genuine, complete, crystalline, pure. And then I realized they were stronger than we, because they could stand that these were not monsters, these were men… trained cadres. These men who fought with their hearts, who had families, who had children, who were filled with love… but they had the strength… the strength… to do that. If I had ten divisions of those men, our troubles here would be over very quickly. You have to have men who are moral… and at the same time who are able to utilize their primordial instincts to kill without feeling… without passion… without judgment… without judgment! Because it’s judgment that defeats us.” Källa.
Så vilket är värst? Att hugga av barnens små armar eller döda dem som mänskliga sköldar? Viet Cong gjorde på sitt sätt. Hamas gör på sitt.
Men lika förbannat är och var båda dessa sätt. Överste Kurtz insåg detta i Vietnam. Han fick tyvärr dö på grund av att övriga världen och i synnerhet USA inte vågade stå detta onda emot med samma medel.
Frågan blir då vilka av oss som i nutid vill och vågar stå Hamas emot? Med samma medel. Jag repeterar: ”You have to have men who are moral… and at the same time who are able to utilize their primordial instincts to kill without feeling…”
Så är det tyvärr. För, som Pär Lagerkvist diktade: ”Barbaren väljer vapen, du välja må som han”.
– The Horror … The Horror … 😡😧😩😩
