None of this is happening in a vacuum, that’s for sure. I’m pretty tired of Israel and the Pals. Time to let them fight it out via total war and let the winner take the spoils. We are directly and indirectly funding both sides. What about our border that fentanyl pours across and kills 100k Americans a year? Anyway… preaching to the choir.

Rush Limbaugh really summed it up best. He said that this war will continue Forever Until one party pushes the other party into the sea. Time for the USA to leave Israel alone and let them do what they’ve got to do.

The people should be armed. Jews have learned nothing over 2K years. They should allow individuals to be armed.

“Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you.”

—Chuck Schumer, aka Nosferatu

He wasn’t wrong. It does seem strange Israeli/US intellignece missed it so completely. Can’t wait to see what they say the after action report turns up. Not saying it applies here, but one of the strange things about massive intelligence failures is that they are usually punished by massive budget increases.

Of course the Biden administration knew that Iran, flush with 6 billion dollars would attack Israel. Joe Biden’s envoy to Iran was Obama’s former aide Robert Malley. He served in that capacity from Jan. 29, 2021 till approximately June, 2023. Suddenly envoy Malley’s security clearance was revoked and the FBI was investigating him for mishandling classified information.
I think it is logical that Envoy Robert Malley shared US classified information with the Iranian government.

As an example, the grenade dropped from a $1,000 drone with precision is insanely effective against armor and personnel. Granted, Gaza is extremely urban, but Hamas obviously knew they’d be inviting a large IDF invasion.

Perhaps Israel will be smart and not do what Hamas expects.

Hamas expects Israel to send people and vehicles into Gaza, where they can be targeted by drones.

Hamas may not expect Israel to stand off and pound Gaza infrastructure with Israeli drones. No power. No sewer. No water. No phones or internet. Send them back into the stone age.

Twitter feeds with live video footage, all kinds of atrocities, families shot in their homes, stacks of dead children, scores of female hostages waiting to be gang raped, time to go bibical on these savages.

Carpet bomb Gaza to rubble, tanks are now on the move, get some!

That is scary how they can precision drop a bomb like that. Drones bring a whole new dimension to urban warfare.

They need to attack Gaza itself and force the Palestinians to defend.

Yes, the opposition hates Netanyahu so much that they’d sabotage the country to bring him down.
