I’m interested in the wording of their comments and also comments from Mister Obama (as I seem to recall online and news reports of an airplane loaded with $400 million landing in iran in 2016)

Not sure if Hamas has a serious end game. Maybe an Iranian attack?
Probably just seeking an uprising.
I wish Israel could wipe them out. Maybe that’s not possible.

Gee...

They need to end this Gaza experiment

Id assume Netanyahu will employ a vastly disproportionate response as he should

It’s surprising to me given things have been fairly static for some time

Hamas planned this a long time

Arab and Muslim pols etc pimp this issue like the west does racism and slavery as original sin scratching it to fester rather than resolve

But I wonder how leaders like MBS will react to this

It’s very bad no question of that

That 6 billion hasn’t all been spent yet. The 6 billion is a reason to keep it going.

I see you once more defend the current regime as usual.

Thank goodness the Israelis didn’t have guns. Someone may have been hurt

Which was exactly my point. Thanks for admitting the obvious.

“NeverTrumpers are often good, Christian conservatives, that are definitely on the side of Israel.”

Uh uh.

I’m pretty shocked Israel was blindsided like this. Their security has been pretty tight.

I don’t know why any small group like that would attack Israel. They know they will get the hell beat out of them.

The Muslims monsters even took hostages.

I imagine they were instructed to do so in order to use them as leverage against a counter-strike by Israel. Keeping the hostages as human shields may be their sick strategy here.

Tough spot for the IDF, but the response to this has to be so overwhelming that they never even think about it again, even if instructed to do so by their puppet-masters in Iran, which is likely the case here.

President Trump formally recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and stated that the American embassy would be moved from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem

An excellent move. From the reports I've seen, Tel Aviv was bombed, but Jerusalem was not, possibly from being out of range.

Dropping Napalm or something similar on a population center seems like a good strategy. Tell people to leave first. Then do it. Stop worrying about world opinion. World opinion is 100% against Israel and has been since 1948. Just get rid of the Palestinians. You have nothing to lose.

It’s impossible to wipe out nationalist jihadis

I worked in Israel long ago

“Arabs…they are either at your feet or at your throat”

“They only respect a firm hand”

I heard those a lot from my Yom Kippur war vet buddies

Every Israeli should be required to keep an army rifle at home and should be allowed to carry concealed in public.

Hasn't that been the case for Israeli males since about . . . 1948?

Perhaps there are forces within Israeli intelligence working to make Netanyahu look ineffective as a leader so he can be ousted, particularly in light of the issues/protests over the restructuring of the supreme court in Israel.

“5,000 missiles were launched into Israel”

Are those the missiles that cost a million dollars a pop?
