The State Department was slammed by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) on Saturday for posting a now-deleted tweet urging Israel to “refrain from violence and retaliatory attacks” with Hamas.
Hamas militants attacked Israel by shooting missiles into towns as well as executing civilians, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of civilians on Saturday. However, President Joe Biden addressed the nation in a televised speech hours after the attack, reaffirming the United States’ commitment to standby Israel.
The attack was the largest organized attack on Israel in decades as multiple towns near Gaza were invaded. The U.S. Office of Palestinian Affairs posted a tweet on X that generated a lot of controversy before it was removed. The office is a diplomatic post within the State Department that was opened by the Biden administration to boost relations with the Palestinian government.
“We unequivocally condemn the attack of Hamas terrorists and the loss of life that has incurred,” the office wrote in a tweet. “We urge all sides to refrain from violence and retaliatory attacks. Terror and violence solve nothing.”

That is a separate issue. My point is that they voted Democrat and this attack primarily happened because Hamas/Iran knew we had a weak leader who, surprise surprise. is a liberal Democrat. Plus were are rotting culturally and are getting weak as a people. Disclaimer: I mean this in the aggregate. It does not apply to most of the people around these parts
So many people on here totally ignores the Bible. It tells you everything that is going to happen. Israel is never going away.
AND just as the US is sending weapons to Ukraine and depleting our supplies along with selling our oil reserves to freedom hating countries and letting illegals invade our borders....Israel is attacked with Iran’s help thanks to Joe Biden....Mmmmmm are you all getting it yet?
After you see the hell fire and brim stone that the Jews rain down on hamas, starting by cutting off electricity and water to the gaza strip, get back to us regarding their will to survive.
Well, God helps those who help themselves, so the somewhat revised version of that phrase within the Psalm that is most appropriate now is:
“Even though I walk through the valley of the Shadow of Death, I shall fear no evil, for I am the meanest sonofabitch in the valley.”
Weakness invites evil - both spiritual and physical weakness. Israel has been quite spiritually divided lately, and quite clearly the Mossad and Shin Bet completely missed this. We can draw lessons from this in the US, mainly with regard to the multiple millions of illegal and untracked immigrants that have been dispersed to every corner of our country. How many reports do we need to see that many of these “immigrants“ are military age men, marching in a disciplined manner toward our border? After yesterday’s events, it *has* to be obvious that the purpose of many of these “immigrants” is to wreak similar mayhem within our society at an opportune moment for some foreign power. If something similar to what happened to Israel yesterday doesn’t happen within 24 hours of Taiwan being invaded, I will be shocked. Time for us to wake up, to prepare both as a nation and as individuals, for a similar action here.
Good for him because nobody is telling Hamas to back off and that’s who they should be preaching to.
It’s just a continuation of this perverted push to discourage self-defense and let the thugs and criminals rule by anarchy.
It needs to stop and we need to speak up and insist on it.
Agreed. Bolshevism and all of its related ideologies are a moral and intellectual virus that has unfortunately taken route among a significant number of my fellow Jews. It is definitely because they are morally uninformed and confused. The origin of it is opposition to the czar of Russia, who was (at the time) the worst thing to happen to the Jews since the Crusades. Opposition to the Czarist regime blinded many to the evils of the main group, opposing Czarist regime, people that we today call Communists. The descendants of those who were actively involved in opposition to the czar, who immigrated to this country some 100 years ago with this intellectual and moral virus, are even further distanced from HaShem. As for me, I grew up hearing from my Russian grandfather about the evils of communism and how it affected his family, and I have subsequently learned that his father was murdered by the NKVD in 1937. I have no illusions or confusion about what communism is, but, unfortunately most of my co-religionists are lacking in such knowledge and experience. I try to wake them up, and a very few actually listen, but most are stuck in their intellectual and moral rut, unable to see the thing for what it really is.
“Terror and violence solve nothing.” That from a bunch of losers in Washington who are becoming millionaires.

That’s cuz
Preterism

Questions: since the Yom Kipper war how much stronger have the Arab states become? Iran? Hamas? Hezbollah?
How did Israeli intelligence fail so badly?
How much has the US funded Iran to develop nuclear weapons and support terrorism, drone technology, weapons, etc..
I could go on and on, but is not inconceivable that the CIA is helping Hamas through proxies. There are Muslim agents acting throughout this Administration.
But the real tell is families in Israel are not all armed, in their homes, allowing hostages. Obviously a good part of the citizens are completely unaware of where they live and the world around them that wants them dead. Not unlike thinking you are perfectly safe living in inner city Philly, Baltimore, Chicago. They are living in utter delusion.
Just as fast as everyone replaced their Palestinian flags with Israel, once the retaliation begins, they will switch back.
And retaliation doesn't solve the problem. And Israel does not have the will to solve the problem. Just as Republicans do not have the will to prevent Constitutional destruction here.
The regime wants Israel to disappear. That’s why they gave the Iranians $6 billion — Knowing it freed up $6 billion in other assets to fund the terrorism.
It’s definitely time to defund the State Department and cutback on government employees there.
Without the Divine aspect, one cannot be “the meanest son of a bitch in the valley....one becomes a ghost.....suffering from PTSD after just a minor skirmish.
Something to remember my FRiend.
What you wrote is very interesting. There is so much history we have not been taught.

You just reinforced my statement. We have a weak leader because we have weak people including the Jewish community who voted democrat. They are the ones who are eroding the country of Israel from the inside with their support of anti-Jewish leaders.
It was at least partially a joke - but I never said (nor would I) that faith isn’t required in life, and especially in challenging circumstances. But you DO need to use the tools that G-d provides to you - brains, eyes, ears, hands, etc. - to protect or better one’s self before relying on Him for a miracle.
Sickening that our own state dept doesn’t even understand punishment for gross war crimes versus starting a war.
If we believed in turning the other cheek we wouldn’t have been a country ever. We believe in freedom. And killing and dying to get it or keep it. We believe those who rape or murder or torture innocent elderly, moms and children DESERVE DEATH. It’s fair. Hamas needs punishment. They have hereby begged for it.
Thanks. It helps to be old enough to have known those who lived through history, so as to know that which isn’t generally known. This is also why I believe that everyone who cares about the future should write (or video) their life story, including lessons learned by yourself and through others that you have known. Knowledge and experience not passed on is useless, and any suffering that was part of developing them will be for nothing without passing on wisdom.
What great advice! I never thought about doing that. What good are the lessons of life if they are just forgotten. Thank you.
And you are correct about knowing those who lived through history as well. My Great Grandfather and my grandmother lived in Prussia during the time of the Czar and then the Communist revolution. So I have interesting stories as well. How I wish I could ask them the zillion questions I now have.
There are no miracles FRiend. Only the ordinary energy whihci surrounds all lioving things 24/7
Would that we as human beings had the awaRENESS DEVELOPED TO CONNECT WITH IT
yoUR DAMN RIGHT WE HAVE TO USE OUR FACULTIES AND BODIES. iF YOU WAIT FOR A MIRACLE, YOU WILL WAIT FOREVER.We make our own “miracles,” perhaps with a little help.
