Terrorists are serial killers. Just to be clear. It seems necessary to clarify this because the term “terrorists” apparently doesn’t sound threatening enough to most of the world, and people fail to grasp what kind of beast this is and what it’s truly capable of. Hopefully, there should no longer be any confusion. Now ask yourself: would you negotiate with serial killers? Would you trust their promises? Do serial killers ever repent and turn into kind, gentle souls? Would you invite a serial killer into your home? Perhaps now you’re starting to understand what Israel is dealing with? Are you still under the illusion that serial killers are capable of stopping and suddenly want world peace? Oh, they’ve recently stated outright that they want to keep killing—did that not alarm you? Well, it should have. Because they don’t care who they kill.

Some clarity.
