Israeli Amb.: ‘This Is our 9/11’ and We Will ‘Change the Equation’ of Gaza as a ‘War Machine’ — ‘Never Again Is Today’
Breitbart ^ | 7 Oct 2023 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 10/07/2023 3:03:31 PM PDT by conservative98

On Saturday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Fox News Live,” Israeli Ambassador to the U.N. Gilad Erdan said the Hamas attack on Israel that happened on the Jewish holiday of Shemini Atzeret, the final day of the annual High Holy Day cycle, “is our 9/11” and “we said, since the Holocaust, where Jews were butchered and massacred, never again. And never again is today,” Erdan also argued that when Israel withdrew from Gaza, Hamas turned the Gaza Strip into “a war machine. We cannot allow this situation of Gaza as a war machine to continue. And we are committed, starting from today, to change the equation. We won’t have another 9/11.”

Erdan stated that while he won’t share military plans publicly, “[F]rom now on, we are committed to [using] every means at our disposal to restore our deterrence, and to exact from these animals a heavy price.” And “All options today are on the table. … This is our 9/11. We are committed to [changing] the equation, to shatter the old paradigm. These animals will pay a heavy price. And they will learn that these atrocities cannot be committed again against our civilians.”

Last weekend I watched ‘Betrayed.’ A Netflix production about the arrests and “transfers” of Norwegian Jews in 1942. Pulled out of their homes and cars, just as Hamas is doing in Israel today...

“I am shocked that Israel was caught so flat footed.”


In addition to everything else, this was a big intel failure. There are a lot of people involved on the other side. But no advance warning and nothing leaked.

Keep your guns and ammo at the ready in case we’re attacked from within. OR, am I just being crazy?

You can never be too paranoid

The “Dome of the Rock” must be removed before the Temple can be restored.

It is a sacrilege for as long as it stands.

It only represents a dream Muhammad had. A dream. That’s it.

What is your basis for believing the Temple SHOULD be restored? Are you aware of the implications?

Perhaps the time for letting the missiles fly and fall where they may is nigh. I am waxing philosophical more and more of late.
Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of War. God looks after fools, drunkards, and always the United States of America. My we live in interesting times.

Yeah, about as bad as 9/11 and the takeover of Iraq by ISIS.

You misinterpret my words. Read carefully.

I did NOT say the Temple should be restored. Why did you cap that?

I said that restoration could not happen as long as the Mosque is on it.

It is a logical statement of fact.

The “Dome of the Rock” must be removed before the Temple can be restored.

So are you in favor of the Dome of the Rock being removed?

And also in favor of the Temple being restored?

Your post does indicate a desire for both, by the way. "Must" means necessary.

Ezekiel 38 and 39. The Israelis destroy the invading force, and are burying bodies for seven years. That sounds nuclear.

Nope. They can do what they need to for now with conventional weapons. Iran will get a nuke and destroy a good chunk of Israel. Then Israel will erase Iran with nukes. That’s how it starts.

Flatten the mosque and turn it into a dog park.

Make it a hog pen instead.

Their 9/11? Gimme a break. “We are at war”....

Blah, blah, blah. Nothing significant will result. Never does. War isn’t giving 10 minute warnings to targets. Such hyperbole for soundbites.

Wait for the demand from the (u) united nations to stop the aggression and give up all land commandeered during this conflict.
