If Israel is really that bad - why doesn't the IDF just carpet bomb Gaza
Comm. at JewishRefugees ^ | 4.Nov.23

Posted on 11/04/2023 4:48:09 PM PDT by Freeleesy

By today (Nov/4/23), sadly, some 25 IDF soldiers already died heroically while fighting the fascistic brutal Gaza regime.

But why does Israel sacrifice its finest, brave, young precious soldiers going street by street?

And this is not just today with 242 hostages at the tunnels. 

This was always the case, humane Israel risking its lives by going door to door, engaging in dangerous urban warfare - where the enemy is the only side that seeks civilian deaths of both sides.

Gaza, Lebanon, Judea Samaria, Ramallah, you name it. Any anti terror operation. 

And while Israel will keep sacrifice for the sake of human lives, haters will utter the fake G word. But not on genocidal Hamas charter, rhetoric, aims, plans, or other jihadists for that matter.

The God of the Christians is the God of the Israelis, whether they want to acknowledge it or not.

Those who are AGAINST Israel are in serious trouble. I will not do so.

If the US decides that they are against the nation of Israel, we as a nation will fall under God’s judgement.

Hail Trump. Hail Israel.

Do the Christian Gazans vastly support Hamas like the Muslim ones do?

Doubt it.

It was a different world back then

That is what I notice, Americans who were old enough to remember what happened on 9/11 all recognize that Hamas is a terrorist group.

But if you did not experience the traumatic events of that day, this is where you are able to justify terrorism.

But among young people age 18 to 24, things looked quite differently.Just 52 percent of this group said they supported Israel, while 48 percent said they supported Hamas.

That would be stupid. Too much fixer-upper work would be the result. Plenty of new tenants will need to be vetted. Sweat equity is good for the soul. The only question would be the identity of the new tenants.

What would Home Depot want?

Not really a fan of either of these guys but Kennedy, I think makes some interesting points.

I went through college etc and did not buy into a lot of things that they attempted to convince me of. Today’s kids are just morons.

They were told to get out. It’s on them if they don’t.

Trump was pushing for two-state solution. Look what happened to him and us.

I get what you're driving at, but seriously why don't they?

It's what I would do in their position.

Find the entrances to their caves and drop bunker busters and be done with it. If that levels the whole place so be it

I’ve pointed to 1999 Grozny as a best case scenario, but people didn’t want to hear it.

Gaza is Grozny times ten.

Even if they use Russian tactics which included destroying building with thermobarics regardless if civilians evacuated or not - the Israelis are still looking at 15,000 killed and 50,000 casualties.

It would be a mercy upon the Israeli people. Take the West Bank and the border up to Jordan. Force the so called Pali’s into the sea. Europeans can take them, they take the phlegm of the world, don’t they?

It's what I would do in their position.

1) Most of the nations surrounding Israel have explicitly threatened war for much less than carpet bombing Gaza.

2) The IDF's capability in terms of deterrence was severely impacted by how they got caught off guard on October 7th. That makes their potential opponents more likely to fight.

3) The threat of American deterrence has been reduced such that Israel lacks a blank check to act in the ways it would otherwise prefer.

Israel hasn't yet done so for the simple reason that they cannot risk the consequences of doing so.

GOD loves the US, and is working even now. Jews are buying guns. My lifelong Liberal Democrat dad is finished with the party.
