The other day I learned a new word, or rather a new phrase: slut drop. The slut who did this was Meghan Markle, currently in the news for all the wrong reasons, as usual. I find it truly amazing that now less than two years short of my allotted three score and ten I am still learning things about the English language. Someone else, a somewhat disparate group of people, don’t seem to learn anything, or rather they didn’t until October 8, 2023, the day after one of the worst terror outrages in recorded history. What they learned is that the people who really hate them are not the ones their activists and mischief-makers have been telling them hated them for decades.
This week, they have learned something else. Back in 2010, the IDF boarded a ship called the Mavi Marmara and murdered nine of its male passengers, including an American citizen. The Flotilla Massacre caused worldwide outrage, rightly so. The Israeli Government compounded the outrage by recording a song about the incident that mocked the victims. They may still not understand just why they are hated, but in the past 24 hours, the IDF intercepted another humanitarian mission, in the process arresting Gremlin of Doom, Greta Thunberg. To the cries of “How dare they!?” no doubt.
Thunberg and her equally daffy fellow travellers will now be deported. This begs the question, if this could be done without a shot being fired, why not the previous incident?
