This is a Facebook post by Andre Callus, spokesperson for Moviment Graffitti, basically describing the attacks by Hamas as an act of resistance. This form of twisted and warped logic that is used for the justification of the murder and rape of civilians is only used against Jewish people. You don’t see many people justifying the excessive use of force by the Israelis, but you do get a lot of people justifying the deaths of innocent Israelis. This antisemitic logic says that every Jew can be a legitimate target in Israel or Palestine because that’s not their land. This is also the same logic shared by Adrian Grima: Israel doesn’t have the right to exist and Israelis are legitimate targets because that is not their land.
To many of these left-wingers, it is also a psychopathic game of numbers, such as the logic that since the Israelis kill more Palestinians than the Palestinians kill Israelis, more Israelis deserve to die. History doesn’t necessarily show that a death count is a marker of which side you are on.
Andre Callu’s post was also liked by the Dean of the Faculty of Arts Dominic Fenech. Antisemitism is normalised at the University of Malta just as it is on the left. And mainly these people don’t necessarily know what they are talking about: they simply hate Jews.
