Hamas threatens to execute Israeli hostages — including toddlers — leaving Jewish state in desperate race to free them from terrorists

Hundreds of innocent civilians, including children, are believed to have been taken hostage in Israel by Hamas — forcing the Jewish state into a desperate race to find and free them as the terror group threatened Monday to execute captives.

Israeli authorities have not yet provided specific details about the number and identities of the kidnapped victims, however, a preliminary assessment shared by one senior military official with the New York Times suggests at least 150 people have been captured.

Among them are 5-year-old Raz and 3-year-old Aviv, their devastated father, Yoni Asher, revealed Monday.

Asher’s entire world came crashing down Saturday when he recognized his girls and their mother in a video circulating on social media showing abducted Israelis being forced on a flatbed truck, surrounded by men with guns.

It’s a needle in haystack at best and even if you can locate some of the hostages, it’s a suicide mission to get in and out in that environment. Very different then plucking hostages out of remote taliban held villages in Afganistán and even then that was difficult, required tier 2 or better operators and often went poorly (but not always!).

Biden/Obamby supported attack on Israel, by proxy.

An Arc Light raid would be a nice preamble to the firestorm.

I fully believe our border has become a revolving door for those who have/will come here to commit similar atrocities on US soil.

Every American is a target.

How do you nuke Gaza without radiating the entire southern portion of your own tiny country?

They are all toast...
Just like all the Americans left bhind when we ran from Baghdad with our tails between our legs...

All the while making sure the ragheads had billions worth of equipment and ammo to use in future attacks, like this first one in Israel...

With the success of this Tet-style attack, their plans for the dis-United States will probably accelerate...

After all, hundreds of thousands of the scum have already either been invited in by our communist rulers, or have strolled across the southern border...

It is too late. The time to protect innocents was BEFORE.

This is now the time to burn Hamas alive with incendiary munitions. Take no prisoners and exterminate them all.
