Well go ahead and have yourself a regional war, I’ll just sit back eating popcorn as I watch Israel self destruct.

Wiping them out entirely would be doing the entire world a huge favor.

I think the best thing to happen is to raze Gaza. Transfer the population of Gaza to a refugee camp in the middle of the Negev Desert. Negotiate with the world to take in women and children. Leave the men isolated in the refugee camp for decades as prisoners.

“Well go ahead and have yourself a regional war..”

There’s been a regional war over there constantly for the last 6 centuries or so.

“I’ll just sit back eating popcorn as I watch Israel self destruct.”

I’ll bet you get a woody just imagining it.

“...UN and wimpy peace creeps to opposed Israel and Jews everywhere. AOC: children are forced to eat grass due to Israelis ...”


Worrying about approval from enemies is why Jews lose, and conservatives lose.

No I think you’re the one getting a woody over this thinking Israel will emerge victorious. I have the opposite opinion. When US intelligence wargamed Israel vs Hezbollah Israel lost. Be careful what you wish for, it’s unlikely to turn out in the way you think.

The US military is already failed and dysfunctional. They can’t keep the Suez Canal open against a terrorist group.

Israel needs to do what it needs to do, and forget about US support. Leftists have captured the Democrat Party so when boomers like Biden and Schumer go, they will be against Israel.

Israel needs to be totally self sufficient for weapons production, and not dependent on anyone.

I’d love to see the specifics in that. And here’s a clue for ya, Skippy. Hamas ain’t Hezbollah.

If the savages in Lebanon want to FA I’m sure they’ll find out that Israel won’t play the way the Pentagon said they would. So you go right ahead and root for a bunch of 6th century savages.

I choose to support the civilized society.

******************************************
Well I can agree with that but it’s a bit late in the game to think that option viable any time soon. Personally I’m America first and have begun thinking Israel is much more of a liability concerning American interests than anything else and there’s lots more Americans thinking that these days. Once people get outside the pro-Israel echo chamber of Free Republic you’ll see what I mean. The hostility towards Israel is increasing by the day.

It’s too late.

The US has already shown the world it is impotent.

All they have to do is look at who we have as president.

If Israel can do their own tanks. They can do everything else.

They can’t depend on the USA. The USA is struggling to produce artillery ammunition as well.

I wish Israel well in their war against the Philistines of Gaza, but I have never bought into the misguided Evangelical Jew/Israel worship.

Israel needs to fight its own wars with its own weapons. There is no national interest in countries of the West jumping into MidEast Wars.

Hostility to Jews in the West is a separate issue. But frankly, they are overwhelmingly Leftist and wanted a Leftist takeover and mass non-white immigration into the West.

And now JewLiberals and JewProgressives are crying because it hasn’t worked out the way they schemed.

Well, they bought the ticket, and they should enjoy the ride !

Sure. Our worthless, compromised, woke, DEI and utterly incompetent intelligence services must be right.

“What kind of war is it when 80% or more of those killed are civilians and very few Hamas destroyed?”

You are quoting Hamas numbers.

What is the point of this war if Hamas is allowed to survive as a cohesive military force?…The Palestinians have said O7 will happen again and again…decrease the capability and lengthen the interval…Israel is bending over backwards to protect non combatants as much as possible, war is hell and the truth is most Palis support Hamas and O7…sow the wind and reap the whirlwind…👊👊👊🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
