Florida Governor Ron DeSantis reiterated his support for Israel in the aftermath of the Hamas massacre of October 7 and criticized those who are calling Israel's retaliation morally equivalent to the unprovoked murder of over 1,400 Israelis on Simchat Torah.
"What we saw is the personification of evil. That's what it was," DeSantis said.
"There's a story I was told, where you had an IDF reservist who had gotten activated, and so he missed the Brit Milah of his son, so they had to do it over ZOOM. So he's there on ZOOM, on the phone, and he's pronouncing the blessings as that's going on. And then, at the end, he offered a concluding prayer. The prayer thanked God for giving him the life to see this moment, even though it was under less-than-ideal circumstance.
"And I just thought to myself: Doesn't that just tell you the difference? Israel values life, the Hamas terrorists worship death. Don't tell me there's a moral equivalency here because there is not," DeSantis said.
Last week, DeSantis ordered the closure of two chapters of the Students for Justice in Palestine organization on Florida university campuses after the national SJP organization published a document supporting the Hamas terrorist organization in the aftermath of the massacre.
