Echoes of medieval myths and the new blood libel against Israel - opinion
We are treated to the fantastical narrative that the IDF, in its pursuit of justice and return of its beleaguered citizens, has somehow mirrored the barbarities of Hamas.
IDF SOLDIERS react with tears and horror, visiting the scene of the October 7 Nova festival massacre, this week. The tale woven by those who seek to demonize Israel as the aggressor is an inversion which serves the interests of those who wish to see the Jewish state annihilated, says the writer.
