Yesterday, in a bloody terrorist attack in the center of Tel Aviv 4 people were killed and about 5 people were wounded.

In the Sarona shopping mall two terrorists opened fire and shot a crowd of people who came out for shopping and decided to spend time with their family in the evening... I offer my deepest condolences to the relatives and families of the innocent victims. Eternal memory.

Among the victims there is 41-year-old Ido Ben-Ari, a former commando of elite troops of Israel, his wife was wounded. They came to the mall with two children to have supper. Except Ben-Ari, 39-year-old Ilan Naveh, 32-year-old Mila Mishaeva, and 58-year-old Michael Feige were killed. All these people were just sacrificed. Remember, recently I have written about the conflict of ideologies? So that is what it is: two armed assassins come to the mall and fire into the crowd.

I do not want to talk about what is happening in Israel - it is clear to everyone. But I'm willing to tell you how people respond to the killing in Gaza: there they had celebrations on the occasion of the murder of four civilians. On the streets sweets were distributed. In Judea and Samaria Arabs went out to the streets, sang joyful songs and launched fireworks. These people had a celebration on the occasion of the murder. Hamas promised to continue the series of terrorist attacks in honor of Ramadan.

At the same time the best Israeli doctors were fighting for the life of the wounded in the Sarona and were saving from the death one of the terrorists who had been shooting people an hour before.

Do you know what will happen next? And then Israel as a democratic state that respects the rights of any person and adheres to international standards will judge and condemn the murderer. He will go to a completely comfortable Israeli prison where he will be able, of course, if he will want, to get an education with the Israeli diploma. And the countries, that support such murderers, will give to his family a decent amount of cash and may remove them in a more peaceful place to live. For the Arabs of Gaza or Samaria, he will be a hero, who has shed blood “for the good fight”. Perhaps later he will be even exchanged for some of the Israeli soldiers, if the need arises.

Don’t you find any similarities? Violence and terrorism always act by using equally cynical methods: “release” civilians of the Donbass or Syria, shooting people on their own land. The terrorism mask is the same all over the world. This is a brutal violence under the guise of saving mankind.

Today, democracy is the best form of government, which only exists. But I strongly believe that the good should be with fists. While democracies are respecting the Minsk agreement, being engaged in peace talks, condemning, blaming, and being in “deep concern” state, civilians are being killed. Those ones who with weapons in their hands protect democracy and the state. This will go on until the good stays as spineless and helpless as it is.
