True but the honest truth is if they want to get there to fight they can trickle in by the thousands. Thousands could already be in Iraq and/or Syria. Enemies will put up with each other if they go after a common foe.
2. The Strategic Reserve is close to empty.
3. Biden gave billions of dollars to Iran/Hamas/Hezbollah. How weapons were purchased with those dollars and from where (Afghanistan, Ukraine)?
4. How many terrorists have crossed the southern border. This attack on Israel was longtime in planning.
Cut the head off of the Iranian snake.
I’m sure none of the weapons we left in Afghanistan made their way into the hands of any of the Hamas or Hizballah militants /sarc.
This is what you get when you allow children like the democRATS control of the levers of power.
The Taliban and Hezbollah are cowards who will not go fight.
The USA upped and left. The Taliban didn’t win any battles.
They just sat and waited while a lot of them got killed.
Neither did the Viet Cong.
They wouldn't have to ship weapons from Afghanistan. They could sell them and give the money to Hamas etc. But even moving weapons 2,000 miles is quite possible in 2 years.
Someone must have a backbone of steel to order the immediate execution of all Palestinian prisoners, all-out war to rescue whomever they can and massive response to anyone else who tries. Then, bulldoze ALL of Gaza and spend years salting the ground with sea salt except for sea ports which will be needed.
Son of Genghis (I want to change my moniker)
Too bad we don’t have real President. Tell Israel to string it out long enough to suck hezebollah and the taliban into the killbox and then unleash holy hell on them all.
Anybody that has democrat friends, make sure you let them know what our planet has become thanks to democrat rule.
Biden and the democrats are intent on involving us in a war, a war we cannot afford thanks to all of their stupid ways.

Thesun.com’s Sarah Hooper reported on the Iron Dome
October 7th 2023, Updated: October 8th 2023
Israel’s high-tech spies and $1bn Iron Dome defences failed to stop Hamas massacring civilians in ’embarrassing failure’
HAMAS launched an all-out attack on Israel despite the country’s $1 billion Iron Dome defences in what experts are calling an “embarrassing intelligence failure”. The unprecedented morning attack from the terrorist group left hundreds of Israelis and Palestinians dead in a brutal massacre. Palestine militant group Hamas launched a massacre on Israeli citizens in the early hours of Saturday morning
International relations professor and Chatham House Associate Fellow Yossi Mekelberg revealed to The Sun that the surprise Hamas attack of thousands of rockets the Iron Dome was supposed to repel marks a “major escalation” in Israeli-Palestinian relations. He said: “It’s unprecedented, because Hamas managed to enter towns, villages and the rest.
“The fact is Israel had a complete intelligence failure, operational failure, the fact that they’ve managed to enter the country so easily, that’s a big embarrassment and a big challenge from a security point of view.

American support for the highly praised billion dollar Iron Dome system is part of a larger package of US military aid to Israel, which according to an agreement between the two countries will total $38 billion in the years 2019 to 2028.
How did the US contribute to the Iron Dome? The United States partnered with Israel’s Iron Dome Department to develop the system. U.S. Defense Secretary visited Tel Aviv in 2020 and saw the Iron Dome when the U.S. purchased two of its own. The IMDO receives joint funding with the United States Missile Defense Agency to carry out joint initiatives.
Well, those Boston Irish do love Islamic terrorists. But they do their fighting in DC.
Very convenient for Russia, too. Backing Palestinian terrorists is a time-honored Russian tradition.
“Very convenient for Russia, too. Backing Palestinian terrorists is a time-honored Russian tradition.”
The Soviets certainly supported terrorists, not as sure about Russia directly supporting terrorists, and especially terrorists attacking Israel.
Look at it this way, if they piss off Israel enough, Israel could start arming Ukraine - so Russia has good reasons to lay low, at least for time being.
The War of the Cities.

I see it much more differently. A united Islam’s war against the West,( and unbelievers of their Prophet) coming to the world. Unlike the Crusades, their will be a divided EU and West…paying a huge price for letting Islam into their countries.
The Taliban and Hezbollah are cowards who will not go fight.

I guess our never ending Gulf wars didn’t teach you much- suicide bombers both male and female, IED’s, etc illustrates Islamists resolve.
I always think of The Godfather II:
Michael: The soldiers are paid to fight, the rebels aren’t.
Hyman: What does that tell you?
Michael: They can win.
You didn’t get it.
