The Israel Defense Forces said it had finally regained control over its suddenly porous border with the Gaza Strip Tuesday morning, some 72 hours after Hamas terrorists blew through sections of the barrier and launched an invasion that saw over 1,000 Israelis slaughtered or kidnapped.
As Israel continued to grapple with the emerging enormity of Saturday’s massacres and the military was formally notifying hostages’ families that their loved ones were being held in Gaza, air force planes bombarded wide swaths of the Strip. Meanwhile, some 300,000 reservists girded for a possible ground invasion, sweeps to locate terrorists feared still hiding inside Israel continued and tensions on the northern border threatened to snowball into a second front.
The IDF said it had managed to seal the border, mining areas around breaches as a stopgap against further incursions.
The death toll in Israel from the surprise attack and subsequent battles rose above 900, according to reports. Over 500 people remained hospitalized, many with life-threatening injuries; over 2,700 have been injured since Saturday.
“In the last day, not a single terrorist entered via the fence,” said the Israel Defense Forces’ top spokesman, Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari.

Despite earlier indications, Hagari said that the military had not identified any tunnels crossing from Gaza into Israeli territory.
The IDF estimates that there are a small number of terrorists still hiding in Israeli territory. Overnight, Israeli security forces killed at least one Palestinian terrorist near Kibbutz Sa’ad. Troops also exchanged fire with terrorists in Kissufim and Monday night saw police kill another terror suspect near Mishmar Hanegev, some 24 kilometers (15 miles) inside Israel.
Lt. Col. Richard Hecht said the bodies of 1,500 terrorists had been located around southern Israel. Hundreds more have been killed in Israeli strikes in Gaza, according to Hamas health officials.
1500 x 72 = 108,000. Dats a lot of Birgins they’re going to need in “pairadice”.
1500 is a lot of dead terrorist in a few days. Was there a large battle that hasn’t been reported yet?
However a not insignificant minority believe that killing Jews will usher in the end of the age and the triumph of Allah.

An interesting statistic from World War II was that the Allies killed far more Axis soldiers than they lost, but Axis killed far more civilians than the Allies.
The Allies were good at killing enemy soldiers, but the Axis was better at killing enemy civilians.
Same dynamic here.
I know this isn’t a football game, but Hamas seems to be trying to run up the score killing civilians, while Israeli sticks to business killing terrorists.
I don’t know about this, Israel.
After all, it’s illegal for your citizens to have guns, even though the vast majority served in its army.
Obviously, Israelis can’t be trusted with even simple handguns, so why ever go to war, against anyone?
Tie a burning pig to their bodies and drop them from an aircraft onto the streets of Gaza.
Sounds like a good start.
And yet the behavior of Hamas is very much in line with that of their so-called prophet.

Soviet Union military deaths outnumber German by a wide margin.

“Lt. Col. Richard Hecht said the bodies of 1,500 terrorists had been located around southern Israel. Hundreds more have been killed in Israeli strikes in Gaza, according to Hamas health officials.”
A good START! Now FINISH it.
That’s a good start.
“CNN: “The bodies of more than 1500 Muslim poets, artists and scholars were found in the Israeli occupied area of Palestine.”
And “aspiring rappers”.
GMTA 😃
What exactly does ‘...1,500 terrorists bodies were located...’ mean?
Who killed them in the first place? If they were killed by the IDF, wouldn’t they already know where they are? It seems a whole chunk of the story is missing due to this part of the story. I’d like to know what operations netted 1,500 of those maniacs so quickly. Did homeowners kill as many as they could, or what?
The part that gets me is how they just “Find” the bodies of 1500 terrorists. I guess they all committed suicide.
“Don’t make this a war against Islam. Most Moslems know right from wrong and act accordingly.”

EVERYBODY knows “right from wrong” to one degree or another. Yes, even Moose Limbs know this but the difference between us and them is that their “religion” embraces, teaches, encourages and demands that its adherents rob, rape, murder, and enslave non-believers.
Islam was created and devised by the Devil himself and ALL Moose Limbs are evil, depraved and murdering followers of Satan.
Piss on them all.
So with bombs being dropped, Israel got control of their border in less than a week.
Lt. Col. Richard Hecht said the bodies of 1,500 terrorists had been located around southern Israel.
The word terrorists is used, that is good.
Tie a burning pig to their bodies and drop them from an aircraft onto the streets of Gaza.

Make sure you use those African swine fever pigs from China.
