SN, you seem to have very little understanding of how things work in this world. Do you really think we’re on the level of the Am HaNivchar? That’s besides the point. The first thing you need to understand is that there is nothing that any person can do without Hashem Yisborach decreeing it first, and once it’s decreed there’s little one can do to change it. Goyim in particular cannot do a thing to a Yid since they are direct shluchim from Hashem, as the posuk says Ki Lashem Hamilucha Umoshel BaGoyim. Now, when threatened by bodily harm from the Goyim, this is a direct message from Hashem. No amount of reciprocated violence will help the situation; and a person must be mevakesh rachamim and do teshuva gamur so that maybe he will be saved. When threatened by spiritual harm (I.E. restricting Shechita, Bris Milah) this is Maaseh Satan, and should be fought, with violence if necessary. We learn this from Chanuka and Purim. The Chashmonaim were given reshus to fight a Milchamas Hashem because they realized that the weakness of Am Yisrael was a spiritual weakness, which the Yevanim were the embodiment of. Purim, on the other hand, was a direct threat of extermination and Mordechai understood that the only solution was Tzom, tefillah and teshuva. There is much to say on the subject, but I’d just like to conclude that its very important to have a basic level of Emuna and Betachon, and understanding of why these things happen, before making bold and rash statements.
P.S. I do concede that condemning the violence is pointless, since you’re condemning the puppet’s actions in the Hands of his Master.
