Indeed, what about Iran?
Hey everybody! Watch my left hand!
IMO, he’s telling Hamas “If we go after Iran, don’t get frisky on their behalf. You won’t like the consequences.”
If they strike Iran they have to be prepared to hit Gaza as well, it will explode when Iran gets smacked.
I saw this, I thought, WHAT the hell. What's Barack Obama siding with Israel for???
Then I saw who it really was.
Israel can no longer afford to fight with one hand tied behind her back. If her enemies want a fight, it is incumbent on Israel to make it fast and decisive.
Didn't they do that for about 35-40 years?
Sure , can they hold it
Gaza is intrinsically linked to the Iran strike. As soon as the first bomb is dropped, rockets will start to fly both from Hamas and Hezbollah. It’s good to know Barak won’t be constrained by inevitable disapproval at the UN. It’s time the terrorists were kicked out of Gaza and Israel controlled the Strip.
They should be crystal clear: If the IDF has to conquer Gaza, then the Gazans become Egyptians. That’s right, no more games, just evacuate the Gazans past the Egyptian border and close the door behind them.
This doesn’t mean that Gaza immediately becomes Israel. In fact, it would be best to bulldoze it flat, for all sorts of reasons. But once this has been done, rebuild the place from scratch, from below ground infrastructure on up.
With housing and residency preference to the ultra-Orthodox, since they will not be confused about inviting Muslims back into their region.
Then rename Gaza, “Judah”.
