   REDUCTIO AD HITLERUM TABLE TALK ON 7 JUNE 1942 AS IDEA #235: "I regard   
   it as an act of exceptional clemency that I did not, in fact, carry out   
   this threat, but contented myself with shooting one hundred and thirty   
   of these self-styled Bible Students (Bibelforscher}. Incidentally, the   
   execution of these hundred and thirty cleared the air, just like a   
   thunderstorm does. When the news of the #235 - shâlach (H7971):   
   *SHOOTINGS* was made public, many thousands of similarly minded people   
   who proposed to avoid military service on the score of some religious   
   scruple or other lost their courage and changed their minds.   
      
   If you wish to wage war successfully or to lead a people successfully   
   through a difficult period of its history, you must have no doubts   
   whatever on one point—namely, any individual who in such times tries,   
   either actively or passively, to exclude himself from the activities of   
   the community, must be destroyed. Anyone who for false reasons of mercy   
   deviates from this clear principle is aiding, willingly or unwillingly,   
   the dissolution of the State. We can see the beginnings of this process   
   to-day in a country like *SWEDEN* [note the NOBEL awards presentations   
   occurred overnight 10 DECEMBER 2025]." [page 519]   
      
   COPILOT @ 1729 HRS ON 11 DECEMBER 2025: "Direct answer: The Hebrew verb   
   shâlach (שָׁלַח, H7971) primarily means “to send” or “to let   
   go,” but it   
   can also mean “to shoot” in the sense of sending forth a   
   projectile—whether an arrow, spear, or other weapon. The act of shooting   
   is linguistically understood as sending away or discharging something   
   from oneself.   
      
   🔎 LEXICAL BACKGROUND   
    • Root meaning: Shâlach is a primitive root meaning “to send, send   
   away, let go, stretch out” .   
    • Extended usage: It includes “to shoot forth” (of branches or arrows),   
   “to cast out,” or “to discharge.”   
    • Nominal form: The related noun shelach (שֶׁלַח, H7973) refers to a   
   “weapon, dart, or spear,” showing how the verb evolved into a martial   
   context.   
      
   ⚔️ HOW “SHOOT” RELATES TO WEAPONS   
    • Arrows and projectiles: In Hebrew thought, to “shoot an arrow” is   
   literally to send it forth. The bow releases, and the arrow is “sent”   
   into flight.   
    • Spears and darts: Similarly, throwing a spear is described as   
   shalach—the weapon is “discharged” from the hand.   
    • Metaphorical extension: Just as branches “shoot forth” from a tree,   
   weapons “shoot forth” from the warrior. The imagery is consistent:   
   something is released outward with force.   
      
   📖 BIBLICAL USAGE EXAMPLES   
    • Genesis 8:10: Noah “sent forth” (shalach) the dove—same verb as   
   “shooting” an arrow.   
    • Exodus 9:29: Moses says he will “spread forth” (shalach) his hands to   
   the LORD.   
    • Psalm 18:14: “He sent out (shalach) his arrows, and scattered them.”   
   Here, the verb directly links to arrows as divine weapons.   
    • Job 8:16: A plant “shoots forth” (shalach) its branches—illustrating   
   the organic metaphor of extension.   
      
   🌿 SYMBOLIC DIMENSION   
   For someone like you, Dolf, who works with symbolic grammars:   
      
    • Weapon as extension of agency: Shâlach encodes the idea of projecting   
   will outward. Shooting an arrow is not just martial—it’s a ritual act of   
   sending intention into the world.   
    • Organic-metaphorical link: The same verb describes branches shooting   
   forth and arrows being discharged. This suggests a deep Hebrew metaphor:   
   growth and aggression are both forms of outward projection.   
    • Ethical resonance: To “send forth” can mean liberation (sending away   
   captives) or destruction (sending forth arrows). The verb holds a dual   
   polarity—creative and destructive discharge.   
      
   🧩 SYNTHESIS   
   So, shâlach can be understood as “shooting” in the sense of sending   
   forth a weapon as a projectile, just as one sends forth a messenger or a   
   branch shoots out from a tree. The martial nuance arises naturally from
