Torah perspective

Stark principle: if someone comes to kill you, rise early and kill him first (Sanhedrin 72a). This is not bloodlust; it is spiritual clarity. The case of a former Hamas bodyguard who received British asylum and citizenship, then reportedly planned attacks against European Jews, exemplifies what happens when that clarity is lost. Granting shelter to those who openly hate is not charity but dereliction. It turns the very tools of protection into weapons. The ability to distinguish between one who deserves refuge and one who seeks to destroy is not prejudice: it is the precondition for preserving life. Without it, the kindness shown to the cruel becomes a death sentence for the innocent.
