The war monger response. Thank you Lindsey Graham.

Americans who took the risk of being in a foreign nation happened to be killed. Ask yourself if you would have a different response if this happened in any other country.

At this time it is most definitely NOT out war. Doesn’t mean we shouldn’t send support or redeploy assets to keep things from getting out of control in the region but in no way is it cause for Congress to declare war.

Interventionalism has made a mess of things.

I think the matter is a bit complicated. First, anytime Americans are killed, raped, or taken hostage, that’s an active war against the United States. I’ve traveled to 50 countries, and I think in the old days, Americans were untouchable, because people knew that we were backed by the United States. Nowadays, we might be the first to be targeted. It’s on that matter when Americans are attacked, my responses to declare war, and kill the attacker. No mercy.

The complicated part is that there are half a million US citizens in Israel, about 600 in Gaza. I suspect most of all of those are dual citizens, Americans by convenience only. I truly wish, personally, that we did not allow dual citizenship, but we do. Normally, for dual citizens, when they choose to live in a foreign country, they’re not our citizens to worry about.

But I also think that we have to stand up for the barbarity of Islamic terrorism by Hamas. We might not be ready yet to declare war on Islamic Cult and all of its terrorist groups, but I think that Hamas has stepped over the line in a way that should not be ignored, and I think we are wrong to ignore.

Last, I’m definitely not a warmonger, a neohawk, we ready to rush out to war. I am a navy veteran. I have twin 16-year-old boys. So anything that starts now, may likely be going on when they turn 18.

Right now, every last member of Islamic Hamas deserves death. Whether it comes at the hands of a declaration of war, that remains to be determined, but dead they should be.
