Poor Ruth, she probably didn’t know what she was getting herself into:
Some things that Jews should know — some uncomfortable truths uncovered . . .
Yes, the world knows that Hamas is evil, but as with the Protocols, it would be better for the Jews to be kept vulnerable and under control.
The Protocols of the Elders of Zion: According to the US Department of State’s “Report on Global Anti-Semitism” (2004): “The clear purpose of the [Protocols is] to incite hatred of Jews and of Israel.” https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/protocols-of-the-elders-of-zion
From a study of the dhimmi texts, the Mohamedan quest for Jewslavery is not over. Today featuring the Hamas Charter, a warning from the Prophet, along with a 21st Century update from Brett Stevens (NYT) . . . . from the documents.
In case you missed it in the past — if you ever wondered what they have to say about Jews — here is the Yale University translation of the Hamas Charter. You might be surprised what you will find there. (Alvalon Project): https://avalon.law.yale.edu/20th_century/hamas.asp
Malachi 3:24
וְהֵשִׁ֤יב לֵב־אָבוֹת֙ עַל־בָּנִ֔ים וְלֵ֥ב בָּנִ֖ים עַל־אֲבוֹתָ֑ם פֶּן־אָב֕וֹא וְהִכֵּיתִ֥י אֶת־הָאָ֖רֶץ חֵֽרֶם׃
He shall reconcile parents with children and children with their parents, so that, when I come, I do not strike the whole land with utter destruction.

What a ‘Free Palestine’ Means — lest we the Jews (and yes, ‘others’ might say something like: “we didn’t know”)
Brett Stevens (writing in the NYT today):
Just in case, after Auschwitz, one might say something like: “We didn’t know” — where have we heard this before?
To the protesting university students, to their enabling professors and admins, to the quisling incumbent politicians who enable them and tremble in fear at the mere thought of losing their deserved re-elections along with their virtue-signaling self-righteous indignation at the dreaded thought of Jews defending themselves, now you can know where enabling and quisling-esque actions leads:
Now you can know what you have wrought — is it too late . . .
Here it is ‘Unlocked’:

The New York Times’ Bret Stephens ^ considers the realities of a future “free Palestine,” governed by the same autocratic style of rule that Palestinians currently endure. “In other words, what the campus protesters happily envisage as a utopian, post-Zionist ‘state for all of its citizens’ would under Hamas be one in which Jews were killed, exiled, prosecuted, integrated into an Islamist state or pressed into the servitude of a Levantine version of Solzhenitsyn’s First Circle. Those same protesters might rejoin that they don’t want a future to be led by Hamas — but that only raises the question of why they do absolutely nothing to oppose it.
This is not the first generation of Western activists who championed movements that promised liberation in theory and misery and murder in practice: The Khmer Rouge came to power in Cambodia in 1975 to the cheers of even mainstream liberal voices. Mao Zedong, possibly the greatest mass murderer of the past 100 years, never quite lost his cachet on the political left. And magazines like The Nation eulogized Hugo Chávez as a paragon of democracy.”
Interesting: a Fetterman Tweet to Harvard . . . a most unusual man taking a principled stand.
PA Senator John Fetterman and an “X” Missive tweet:
Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA), a Harvard alumnus, slammed <–link –> https://twitter.com/SenFettermanPA/status/1790480286607724670 the school’s administration for what he deemed its “moral and institutional failure” in reaching an agreement with protesters. Fetterman said he was “dismayed by Harvard’s pandering to the fringe and its willingness to tolerate the pervasive antisemitism.”

“Is orange the new black?” — what a ‘rebranding’ can do for violent Mohamedan criminals, er, freedom fighters, my apologies.
Perhaps rebranding is the new understanding:
From terror to liberation: The strategic rebranding of Hamas, from The Hill: https://thehill.com/opinion/4656870-from-terror-to-liberation-the-strategic-rebranding-of-hamas/
Excerpt: This raises pressing questions about how Hamas, after carrying out its deadliest assaults on largely innocent civilians, succeeded in reshaping public perception to its favor.
Political scientist William Riker offers one answer. In his book “The Art of Political Manipulation,” Riker explains how political actors in disadvantaged positions strategize to turn potential political losses into victories. One prevalent strategy involves introducing a fresh perspective to align previously unsupportive parties with the disadvantaged group.
For Hamas, such reframing has proven pivotal. By portraying its Oct. 7 attack on Israel as part of a struggle against an alleged white colonial regime, Hamas depicted its actions not as brutal acts of violence but as a response to 75 years of oppression and colonization.
