why did it take over 6 hours for the Israeli military to respond to the nearby settlements? Seems like the Mossad didnt know 5000 rockets were aimed at Israel on a 25 mile long border? I smell a 9/11 situation.

Maybe.

While we watch the middle east explode into war, it would be wise for Homeland Security to work overtime in finding and neutralizing any such threats.

The chances of DHS finding and stopping them are as good as the chances of Mossad and CIA discovering the October 7 attacks. Everybody is in "Pronouns 101" and way too busy to deal with existential islamist threats.

The nation is divided and just a year away from presidential elections. It is time to unite, but can we?

Sure. Just as soon as leftists stop child grooming, stop child mutilation, stop baby murder, stop killing our energy infrastructure, and close the southern border.

How long did we "unite" after 9/11? A few weeks?

Maybe if they level Washington DC with a nuke we would "unite." But half the country would applaud, so that might not work.

yes indeed, the tip of the spear...
The tip of the 2024 swindle spear...

The American Communist party desperately needs a war to add to their 2024 swindle tool chest to guarantee their hold on the WH and recover the House...

When has the American Communist party (formerly known as the Democrat party) NOT started a war?

This is just an opening move. Next, Jerusalem with be destroyed by Iran with nuclear weapons then the US will come under massive, coordinated attack.

Did they really not know? Or did they let it sell happen?

Thank you!!! I read about people waiting over six hours for help too.

I don’t know, but this was incredibly well done. Two meetings with Iran doesn’t seem like enough.

Someone with military sophistication was helping.

Hamas was given the weapons to send a message to those Muslims who want peace with Israel.


They made a statement about this also.

This war started on September 11th, it’s been an ongoing action with ebbs and flows in the action, yesterday’s attacks in Israel is just the next step.

This will get worse before it gets really bad. I wouldn’t count on election in 2024.

I think that Israel is aware of that plan and have plans of their own for those nuclear weapons.

Hamas started the war. Israel is an innocent victim here. Our deep state is also responsible.

I am assured by Israelis who know how this stuff works that even cats approaching the border fences and even birds landing on them should show alarms and are investigated instantly, or at least that’s how it was before senior military leaders decided to overthrow the Netanyahu government.
