After Druze Debacle, Palestinians To Stick To Kidnapping Americans

“We have to focus on targeting people whose governments and communities will act with predictable weakness they label ‘restraint’ or some other nonsense.”

kidnapNablus, December 7 – Unwanted tensions with a different Arab demographic following the abduction and murder of a hospitalized teenager have prompted an adjustment of policy on the part of the official leadership in Ramallah and of the gangs of thugs whose violence they encourage, regarding the desirability of snatching living or dead bodies for negotiating leverage, recent reports indicate: for the foreseeable future, the thugs will target only US citizens for such treatment, given the anemic response that the US has shown to previous incidents, and the reliable concessions that Iran has extracted by the same method for years.

Quiet directives emerged from the offices of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas this morning instructing the various armed factions in the Palestinian Territories to select only Americans for kidnap-and/or-murder operations. The directive cited the incident late last month when a group of Palestinian thugs entered a hospital that was treating an Israeli-Druze teenager injured in a car accident in this Palestinian-run city, disconnected him from life support systems while his helpless family looked on, and absconded with the dying boy. Threats from the Druze community and the IDF forced turnover of the body and a Palestinian reassessment of the haphazard nature of Palestinian terrorism target selection. Rival factions to the ruling Fatah, such as Hamas and Islamic Jihad, as well as numerous smaller militant groups, seconded the recommendations.

“It might have been overreach, overconfidence,” explained an aide to Mr. Abbas. “We’ve grown accustomed to weakness on the part of Israel, not realizing that it’s not so simple. We grew complacent. We forgot that not everyone plays by the stupid Western rules that are so easy to game. So now we have to focus on targeting people whose governments and communities will act with predictable weakness they label ‘restraint’ or some other nonsense. That means the US. Iran has done admirable work since the Obama administration of demonstrating exactly how and why to harass, kidnap, or kill American citizens in a way that provokes not harsh retribution, which one might expect from a country with an actual spine, but conciliatory moves.”

Palestinian experience has borne out the wisdom of killing Americans and facing little practical backlash. The Biden administration has ignored legislation such as the Taylor Force Act that mandates cutting off funding for Palestinian entities in the wake of an attack that killed a member of the US armed forces, plus other provisions designating Palestinian organs as off limits.
