It’s Time to Stop Feeding the Crocodile in Gaza; Newt Gingrich: Epoch Times Commentary

In 1933, Winston Churchill read a copy of Adolf Hitler’s “Mein Kampf” and concluded what few politicians of the time dared: Negotiation and appeasement only work with rational and moral people.

Leftism is a moral sickness in the human condition. As I have previously written, it is not even an issue of the Left having a broken moral compass. A broken moral compass is occasionally accurate. The Left’s moral compass always shows north as south and east as west.
