rise early and kill him first”

rise early and kill him first”
(Talmud, Berakoth 58b).
“There is time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens… a time to kill and a time to heal…a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and time for peace.” Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
“Notoriously anti-gun Europe will probably turn down this request from the European Jewish Association to allow members of their community to carry firearms to defend themselves.”
“But what does it say about the plight of Jews in Europe that they would feel compelled to ask?”
“The next shoe to drop will probably be a Muslim organization asking for the same thing. That's why this request is more symbolic than realistic. That Jews feel the necessity to arm themselves because they have come to the realization that authorities cannot - or will not - protect them in their own communities speaks volumes about the rising level of hate generated not just by Muslims, but by many in the European elite. Pro-Muslim sympathies among the educated and professional classes in Europe harkens back to pre-Holocaust days where it was respectable to run anti-Semitic editorials in leading dailies, and leading figures in the political class felt safe to blame the problems of the world on Jews.”
“We haven't quite reached that level of casual, nauseating Jew hatred quite yet. But this time around, Jews aren't waiting for the situation to spin out of control. Whether they get a license to carry or not, there is a likelihood that many Jews will arm themselves anyway.”
