Unlike its close ally the United States of America, Israel is not suffering from a lack of backbone or clarity at the top.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu does not gladly suffer fools who offer opinions on the role his country should play in fostering peace in the Middle East, especially when those fools aren't the ones getting shot at, raped, or bombed.
The aforementioned close ally has been flooded with protesters who are demanding a ceasefire and caterwauling about Israelis being at fault for being the victims of all of the shooting, raping, and bombing. Most of the protesters are young people who have been taught fictional history by commie, America-hating academics.
The logic of their position disintegrates under any rational scrutiny. Luckily for most of them, they inhabit college campuses and/or very blue cities, so they're immune to things like logic and rationality.
Netanyahu made some remarks on Monday that reiterated his position, and with an economy of words, simplified things for the frothing "Ceasefire!" hordes he's rebutting.
Netanyahu ruled out a ceasefire with Hamas, amid negotiations at the United Nations over a draft resolution calling for a pause in the conflict to allow civilian aid to be delivered to civilians in Gaza. “Calls for a ceasefire are calls for Israel to surrender to Hamas, to surrender to terrorism, to surrender to barbarism. That will not happen,” he said.

Thank the Lord there is one leader in the civilized world.
They also do things like send Biden to Israel to cut a check for Hamas/Gaza.
Although they can't say anything publicly, Netanyahu and other Israeli leaders know that because America has a weak and addled leftist in the White House, they're more alone than ever.
In our world what we call terrorism, in their world is just Muslims doing as the Holy Quran commands them.
https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/16955 This is a link to a free book on Gutenberg.org, three translations by 3 Imams of the Holy Quran side by side.
Remember in one memorable scene, one of Scott's lines says it all: As Patton surveys the positive results of the battle in progress between Allied forces and the Nazi army in northern Africa, he proclaims, “Rommel, you magnificent bastard, I read your book!”
Every non Muslim needs to read the enemy's book.
Until they do, and then behave accordingly, this madness will never end.
We have some choices:
The Muslims kill or convert all of us.
We kill all of them and destroy every Holy Quran in the world.
They live in their part of the earth and we live in ours, with them not allowed in our part.
If they wanted a ceasefire, they should have asked for one on October 6.
How is Israel our ally?
I’m in favor of negotiations towards a cease fire at the appropriate time.
After Israeli artillery has flattened every building in Gaza, after the rubble has been bulldozed into the sea, after every tunnel has been detected, pumped full of thousands of gallons of napalm and other incendiaries, then every tunnel entrance plugged with hundreds of tons of concrete, and then the incendiaries lit off and left to burn themselves out,...
I’d think it an appropriate time to begin discussions leading towards a cease fire.
Well, for one, they are in the Middle East but they're not shouting 'death to America'.
That’s all?
Whoa, whoa, whoa! You can't question our Greatest Ally EVAH!
How do you negotiate with people who love death more than life?
What would you like an ally to do? What is your definition of an ally? Russians were our allies in WW2. You want them to be more like Russia?
God is on their side. God is a side. Now, you can be an anti-Semitic Nazi who hates Jews or you can be on the side of God. Choose wisely.
Of course not. It was a tongue in cheek comment. We have very similar world views, including the right of individuals to self-determine. I have no doubt that they will try to help us if the need arises. There’s a reason the ‘hate Israel’ crowd also hate us.
With heavy artillery and a willingness to send them to Allah.
Hamas has won the toss and has elected to receive.
“Whoa, whoa, whoa! You can’t question our Greatest Ally EVAH!”
Exactly!
If God is on their side then they don’t need our money or our troops. Period!
Jesus told the parable of the good Samaritan. If you re-visit this story (it’s in the Bible), you may identify with the priest or rabbi who didn’t help the injured party. God blesses those who bless Israel and curses those who curse Israel.
I would like an ally to not endlessly suck off our teat to the tune of billions and billions. It’s a one way street and always has been. Their lopsided influence on our politicians is disturbing to say the least, particularly for a country of 15 million people. And why are we not allowed to question anything without being called antisemitic? It’s all very, very strange. I wish them the best, and the innocent Palestinians, but its their fight not ours. America first.
