I wouldn’t mind an American airstrike against Hamas as payback for the Americans murdered and kidnapped but broadly, it is not in our interest to go in and stir things up. That’s what Hamas wants. They want to say the “real” enemy is big bad America blah blah blah and take the focus off the fact that they just committed sickening war crimes against civilians which brought this on.

This is Israel’s fight. Support them with intel and weapons if they need the help. Otherwise, a punitive airstrike against Hamas is about as far as I would go.

It's realistic to assume that part of the Hamas / Iranian plan is to widen the conflict to the entire Middle East.

Our job should be to keep this from happening, not intervening in the conflict unless absolutely necessary.

People will want airstrikes on Syria—maybe hit that Russian Naval Base and air field in Syria. Sink any ship Putin has in the area. NO! Do not let emotions pull us into war. I was wondering when the “Lusitania Moment” would come and where. Now I know and it was more horrible than I imagined. BUT don’t be stampeded into a World War! Let Israel handle it—we are being set up. We can’t get the US population to make war of Russia-—so hit her ally Iran. Which will hurt China because they get oil from Iran. Its like America didn’t want to fight Hitler so we goaded Japan to attack Pearl Harbor.
