Shall we call it the China flu or the bat/snake flu?
What's in a name anyway?
One of the collateral issues that emerged from the current pandemic crisis is a debate about the correct name of the flu that is threatening to change the world as we know it. Historically, contagious diseases and epidemics were indeed labeled after their place of origin. The current debate is yet another expression of new inventions such as political correctness and identity politics, all products of the Left, and thus tools in the hands of the most repressive regimes today. The Left is always quick to defend dictators as long as they are enemies of the USA.
America-hating Left (not to be confused with classic Liberalism) choose their targets of outrage and hate very carefully. If you are an enemy of a western democracy such as Israel then Israel's enemies who happen to be bloodthirsty fascist dictatorships are granted immunity and shown celeb popularity. The full list of examples is too long for this piece but remember how Assad (the mass butcher) was touted as the greatest hope for peace in the Mid East. After all, he was educated in England and love the Internet His glamorous wife was interviewed by the most progressive, women's rights media. They were the cutest most beloved couple of the year. The next year dear hubby was murdering millions with Mrs. Assad's full support.
How wonderful is Castro of Cuba? Did he not teach his people to read ( of course only what they are allowed to on pain of death)
Wasn't the Soviet Union a great place to honeymoon? Have you ever seen nicer train stations than in Moscow?
Why would anyone not want to send hundreds of billions of dollars to fascist/theocratic Iran in return for their promise to behave well? Their vow to wipe another country from the map is no reason to upset the dictators in Iran. They should not be misunderstood. China wiped out Tibet as a country and a culture but that never was reason enough for the Left to discuss boycotting goods from the occupied territory of Tibet.
Wasn't Arafat the darling of the Left as he never paused in murdering Jews? And the list goes on…
Now, do we really want to insult China by using the term, Chinavirus? Maybe, in fact, it was actually started by American soldiers as China claimed? Who knows where the truth lies? Is China's word not as good as evil America's?
Let us ask the “peaceful demonstrators" who are burning down cities today in the US. Let's ask those Jews who marched for "Black Lives matter" even as Blacks continue killing Jews in NY and NJ and ransack Jewish neighborhoods LA.

LEBANON
In the wake of the huge explosion of what is possibly a major arms (intended to kill Jews) depot in Beirut yesterday, Israelis are debating what is considered the proper reaction and correct feelings towards the many civilian casualties.
At this writing we have not yet seen very progressive, humanitarian Jewish groups publicly say kaddish or light candles for them. Maybe it is because they did not die trying to kill Jews. They reserve public kaddish only for select people - those in active conflict with Israel as in the last Gaza confrontation.
This does not mean that trues Jews - pure Jewish progressive hearts do not go out for suffering people who are part of a society of Jew/Israel haters; like the Arab countries that surround Israel. Progressive, humanistic Jews are chomping at the bit to send humanitarian aid to this enemy population. The enemy though would rather die than live the shame of accepting aid from the hated Jews. But the Jews never give up. They yearn the love of their enemies. It's a sick Jewish thing. progressives surely raise an eyebrow; enemy populations? Does this really exist except in the mind of a fanatic, racist, nationalistic warmonger?
What is the enemy population if not innocent civilians that have no hatred for Jews? It is only the ones who actually shoot at Jews that can perhaps be called the enemy.
I would suggest that the Arab populations. brainwashed for generations to hate and kills Jews (longer than the Germans of the Third Reich) and its state is as much Jew This doe-haters as the enemy population of Germany. Their cities were flattened by the enlightened Western allies with lots of civilian casualties just as Germany bombed their first. That was considered a righteous war of light against darkness.
Our Arab civilian neighbors have endless opportunities to show even the tiniest hint of empathy when Jewish civilians in Israel are murdered by Arab terror. Instead, they rush to share sweets at traffic lights and public squares(which they name after mass killers of Jews)
Of course, our enlightened progressive brothers will wag a moral finger and remind us that we are not like "them"( a racist statement?). What does that mean? Does it mean that we turn the other cheek in our hearts and weep when our enemies fall?
Wrong religion.
King David frequently thanked God for the fall of his enemies, and they did not include only males of fighting age.
Lebanon is an enemy country that is run by Hizbollah - dedicated to killing Jews; and not just in Israel. I don't recall Jews saying kaddish for German civilians; just as I don't recall German civilians sorry about dead Jews. Same with the Arabs. The record is open and clear.
So do I shed a tear when my enemy falls? No, I read the Psalms with joy that praise God for just that.
But then again David did not understand true Judaism, did he?

Great post! What would our beloved holy Dovid Hamelech say or do if there were traitors like these enemy loving bogdim in his times. They would be shivering in their boots, as it should be. We should know by now that when we use the term 'leftists' who are Jews but their souls are so tarnished and tainted, that they have become just like the nations with their beliefs because they are now 'Jews in name only'.
