"revenge is beautiful," and "all Israelis and Jews should be

It is that simple.

losing their innocence at that age, it's such a shame," said
Rabbi Joshua Kalev.

The kids who made the statements are the innocent ones who
intuitively understand that evil should be eradicated as
thoroughly as possible! It is adults (including Kalev) telling
them that such thinking is wrong that makes kids lose their
innocence!

draws on historic ignorance and crude postmodern notions of
justice and victimhood, in which torture and kidnapping were

Why should retaliatory violence not be a justifiable response to
initiated violence?
(Also, punishment is not "torture". The aim of torture is to
alter behaviour via inflicting pain. The aim of punishment is
simply to inflict pain because that is what the targets
deserve.)

alongside the genial, soft-spoken Hirsch, only to see fellow UVA
education school faculty quietly steer their students away from
this dangerous figure.

> Joshua “carries out a systematic campaign against the
civilians of Canaan — men, women and children — that amounts to
genocide.”[61] In doing this he is carrying out herem as
commanded by Yahweh in Deuteronomy 20:17: “You shall not leave
alive anything that breathes”. The purpose is to drive out and
dispossess the Canaanites, with the implication that there are
to be no treaties with the enemy, no mercy, and no
intermarriage.[7]:175 “The extermination of the nations
glorifies Yahweh as a warrior and promotes Israel’s claim to the
land,” while their continued survival “explores the themes of
disobedience and penalty and looks forward to the story told in
Judges and Kings.”[42]:18–19
> …
> Joshua has become an iconic figure for the Jewish Zionist
movement,[78] and many Israeli settlements sit on land taken by
force from Palestinians.[79] David Ben-Gurion saw in the war
narrative of Joshua an ideal basis for a unifying national myth
for his new State of Israel, framed against a common enemy, the
Arabs.[80] He met with politicians and scholars such as Bible
scholar Shemaryahu Talmon to discuss Joshua’s supposed conquests
and later published a book of the meeting transcripts; in a
lecture at Ben-Gurion’s home, archaeologist Yigael Yadin argued
for the historicity of the Israelite military campaign pointing
to the conquests of Hazor, Bethel, and Lachish.[80] Zionism thus
presented the 1948 war (the war which saw the creation of the
State of Israel) as a “miraculous” clearing of the land based on
Joshua, and the Bible as a mandate for the expulsion of the
Palestinians.[81]

economics, and philosophy are essential to understanding the

schools teach coherently or consistently. Last year K-12

to promote environmental activism than “knowledge of social,
political, and civic institutions.”

It is you who lack academic rigour. Moral relativists would
logically not have contempt for Western civilization as they
would find it impossible to consider Western civilization either
better or worse than any other civilization. It is anti-Western
moral absolutists (a.k.a. True Leftists) who are able to clearly
say that Western civilization is by far the most inferior
civilization in all of history, and hence have contempt for it.

No, these are regressive students:

Progressive students are the ones who look forward to quantum
computing, AI and space travel. No one thinks Hamas is
contributing to any of these fields. We like Hamas precisely
because they are not contributing to these fields!

distinguishable from pasture fields. The damp climate of
maritime Western Europe in the north made lawns possible to grow

cultures of the world until contemporary influence.[6]
