This could be you

A story appeared in the Jerusalem Post several weeks ago; at the time I was not certain whether a disgruntled Facebook group deserved the attention. I am now thinking it is a sign of things to come. When the duly elected representatives of the people refuse to defend them, vigilantism is inevitable.

A new Facebook group is urging Sderot residents to use the Internet to learn how to build crude rockets, much like the Kassams launched at them from the Gaza Strip, and fire them back at the Palestinians. The group, which currently has 45 members, posts material from the Internet on how to manufacture rockets.

Facebook, a social networking site that has taken the on-line world by storm, allows anyone to create groups and to invite people to join. The group's creators, Shai and Batya Messenberg from Petah Tikva, posted a description that reads: "It cannot be so difficult: If those retards from the Gaza Strip can do it then so can you."

The wonder is not that people are advocating acts of terror; the wonder is it has taken so long. Critics of the IDF operation in Gaza - silent on Gaza's forever war against Israel - should pray Israel's government is successful. There are only two alternatives to victory for the rule of law: Either the Jews undergo yet another diaspora and a land made green through their efforts is returned to the desert or the Jewish people finally lose patience with their government and a bloody anarchy is unleashed.

Update: Ireaellycool is monitoring events better than any other source I have found. Solomonia is doing yeoman's work finding substantial commentary including a link to this peace: Enablers of Murder.

Godspeed the IDF.

Now that is an interesting effort. Of course, if they really started to do it, Israel would show simultaneously that they are a nation of laws and expose what the Gazans could but refuse to do by putting a stop to it.
