It’s been a busy day at Chez Tepes, but I did want to cross post this item.
A jihadi launched three attacks on the Jewish community of Queens NY and in one of them, murdered a woman as she walked along the street with her husband of 45 years.
The story is an interesting one. but the insight is at this article over at RAIR Foundation. The bottom line? Treating jihad, which is a fundamentally military problem as a law and order one is a guaranteed path to failure, and that is why leftist governments are doing it, and have been for some time now. Please read the article at RAIR.
If I had anything to add to the article at RAIR, it might be that it is worth noting how, in all the major jihad attacks in India, France, and elsewhere the terrorist group be it Pakistan’s ISI or the Islamic State or whatever other front for orthodox Islam claimed the attack that a proportion of the total resources allocated for the entire attack would be disproportionately used to attack a Jewish soft target. In India, it was the Chabad house. In France, if memory serves, it was a Jewish deli or some small business. On all of these occasions, had they not reallocated their people and various Ordnance to those specific attacks, their mass casualty attack would have been much higher. This data point should give some pretty solid indication of doctrinal Islamic antisemitism.

Would the law have had more consequences for the “reckless driver” if the carooming cars that were hit had had bumper stickers and had Mrs. Trager been wearing a shirt that said, “I stand with Israel?”
