Daniel in der Löwengrube

Er hatte aber an seinem Obergemach offene Fenster nach Jerusalem, und er fiel dreimal am Tag auf seine Knie, betete, lobte und dankte seinem Gott, wie er es auch vorher zu tun pflegte. 12 Da kamen jene Männer eilends gelaufen und fanden Daniel, wie er betete und flehte vor seinem Gott.

13 Da traten sie vor den König und redeten mit ihm über das königliche Gebot: O König, hast du nicht ein Gebot erlassen, dass jeder, der in dreißig Tagen etwas bitten würde von irgendeinem Gott oder Menschen außer von dir, dem König, allein, zu den Löwen in die Grube geworfen werden solle? Der König antwortete und sprach: Das ist wahr nach dem Gesetz der Meder und Perser, das niemand aufheben kann. 14 Sie antworteten und sprachen vor dem König: Daniel, einer der Gefangenen aus Juda, der achtet weder dich noch dein Gebot, das du erlassen hast; denn er betet dreimal am Tage. 15 Als der König das hörte, wurde er sehr betrübt und war darauf bedacht, Daniel zu retten, und mühte sich, bis die Sonne unterging, ihn zu befreien.

16 Aber die Männer kamen wieder zum König gelaufen und sprachen zu ihm: Du weißt doch, König, es ist das Gesetz der Meder und Perser, dass alle Gebote und Befehle, die der König beschließt, unverändert bleiben sollen. 17 Da befahl der König, Daniel herzubringen. Und sie warfen ihn zu den Löwen in die Grube.

(…)

Und sie zogen Daniel aus der Grube heraus, und man fand keine Verletzung an ihm; denn er hatte seinem Gott vertraut. 25 Da ließ der König die Männer, die Daniel verklagt hatten, holen und zu den Löwen in die Grube werfen samt ihren Kindern und Frauen. Und ehe sie den Boden erreichten, ergriffen die Löwen sie und zermalmten alle ihre Knochen.

26 Da ließ der König Darius allen Völkern und Leuten aus so vielen verschiedenen Sprachen auf der ganzen Erde schreiben: Viel Friede zuvor! 27 Das ist mein Befehl, dass man überall in meinem ganzen Königreich den Gott Daniels fürchten und scheuen soll.

Daniel 9: Daniel‘s Prayer for His People

3 Then I turned my face to the Lord God, seeking him by prayer and pleas for mercy with fasting and sackcloth and ashes. 4 I prayed to the Lord my God and made confession, saying, “O Lord, the great and awesome God, who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, 5 we have sinned and done wrong and acted wickedly and rebelled, turning aside from your commandments and rules. 6 We have not listened to your servants the prophets, who spoke in your name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land. 7 To you, O Lord, belongs righteousness, but to us open shame, as at this day, to the men of Judah, to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel, those who are near and those who are far away, in all the lands to which you have driven them, because of the treachery that they have committed against you. 8 To us, O Lord, belongs open shame, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against you. 9 To the Lord our God belong mercy and forgiveness, for we have rebelled against him 10 and have not obeyed the voice of the Lord our God by walking in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets. 11 All Israel has transgressed your law and turned aside, refusing to obey your voice.

Today in the bizzare and sick statements by our government: the Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi wants the army to collect all the *foreskins* of Hamas members in Gaza

Today in what the actual, Israeli media minister @shlomo_karhi asks the IDF to bring him foreskins. ALL THE FORESKINS. Of every Hamas, er, member, apparently.

The idea of expelling Arabs to other countries was once linked to far-right radicals, and thus considered anathema by most Israelis. Now, to the delight of extremists, the idea is gaining traction as a „moral“ solution to the war

Victory is an opportunity for Israel in the midst of crisis – opinion

Some world leaders are already discussing a worldwide refugee resettlement scheme and saying they would welcome Gazans to their countries. This could be supported by many nations around the world, especially those that claim to be friends of the Palestinians.

This is an opportunity for those who say they support the Palestinian people to show these are not just empty words.

Statt den Gazastreifen wieder aufzubauen, sollen Menschen aus dem Küstengebiet in anderen Ländern unterkommen können. An den Kosten sollen sich nach Aussagen von Gila Gamliel die internationale Gemeinschaft beteiligen.

Israeli General Giora Eiland’s weekly call for genocide: “The international community warns of a humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza and of severe epidemics. We must not shy away from it, as hard as it is. After all, severe epidemics in the south of the Strip will hasten victory”

In Gaza, there is no such thing as ‚innocent civilians‘

(8. Mai 2014)

You probably have two questions now. First, why should Gaza‘s residents suffer? Well, they are to blame for this situation just like Germany‘s residents were to blame for electing Hitler as their leader and paid a heavy price for that, and rightfully so. (…)

We are dealing with an enemy state, not with a terror organization which is seemingly operating from within an innocent civilian population.

Only when we put things on the level between states or between people, we will be able to create real deterrence or defeat the enemy when the next conflict erupts.

The U.S. Should Think Twice About Israel’s Plans for Gaza

(Oct. 15, 2023)

Consider what some in the Israeli defense establishment have said.

“The State of Israel has no choice but to turn Gaza into a place that is temporarily or permanently impossible to live in,” a reservist major general, Giora Eiland, wrote in Yedioth Ahronoth, an Israeli newspaper. “Creating a severe humanitarian crisis in Gaza is a necessary means to achieve the goal.” He added, “Gaza will become a place where no human being can exist.” Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said, “We are fighting human animals, and we are acting accordingly.” Maj. Gen. Ghassan Alian declared that in Gaza, “there will be no electricity and no water. There will only be destruction. You wanted hell; you will get hell.”

Watch: Israeli children sing, “We will annihilate everyone” in Gaza

The sweet faces of children make an incongruous accompaniment to the genocidal lyrics of the so-called Friendship Song 2023.

“Autumn night falls over the beach of Gaza, planes are bombing, destruction, destruction,” the children sing in angelic voices. “Within a year we will annihilate everyone, and then we will return to plow our fields.”

The lyrics were translated for The Electronic Intifada by independent writer and filmmaker David Sheen and you can watch a subtitled video of the song above, or in the tweet below:

PM warns ministers to pipe down after comments on new ‘Nakba’ and nuking Gaza

“Every word has meaning when it comes to diplomacy. If you don’t know — don’t speak,” the prime minister said during Sunday’s cabinet meeting.

“We must be sensitive,” he added.

The prime minister was referring to recent comments by ministers that are viewed as having caused damage to Israel’s international legitimacy.
