We must not mistake her: The Nobel peace prize laureate is no “peace activist.” She identifies in absolute terms with Hamas, despite the fact that she knows that it is an anti-Semitic organization that has insisted on continued violence, openly preaches for the annihilation of the Jews and supports global jihad and the Islamic conquest of the entire free world.

I am merely worried about the children of Gaza, said Nobel peace prize laureate Mairead Corrigan Maguire in court, and we almost wanted to send her flowers. Worry about the fate of children, as such, is important. But Maguire couldn’t resist the temptation and said: I swore to myself during a visit to the concentration camps that I would never be silent in the face of suffering children.

The penny dropped. There are millions of children in Asia and Africa who are crying for help. They are being murdered. They are being pressed into military service against their will. They are being used as slaves. Maguire takes no interest in them. She has not demonstrated on their behalf and she has not acted on their behalf. She has just one thing that she is interested in doing: Comparing Israel to the Nazis. This wasn’t the first time that she has given voice to this despicable comparison.

Palestinian children were hurt. That is regrettable and tragic. But one really ought to be accurate with the facts. Children were turned into weapons by Hamas. Hamas has brainwashed them. Hamas has taught them to murder and to hate - not only to hate Jews, but to hate the free world. Hamas has educated them to be martyrs and suicide bombers. Hamas has admitted to using them as human shields. So, yes, children were hurt. Not because Israel wanted to hurt children. It happened because Hamas uses them and enslaves them. Has Maguire ever once spoke out against that destructive abuse of children? Besides, the number of children who were hurt in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and that includes Operation Cast Lead in the Gaza Strip, is the smallest number in comparison to every other conflict in the world. Thousands of children were killed in recent years in Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Somalia. Most of them were killed as a result of attacks by political Islam. Hamas is one of the cancerous branches of that very same political Islam. The children who live there could never even dream of a standard of living of the kind that exists in Gaza.
