Hamas Attack On Israel: Death Toll Rises To 700 And 100 Confirmed Hostages, Americans Included
OANN ^ | 10/23 | Brooke Mallory

Posted on 10/08/2023 2:00:18 PM PDT by spirited irish

After Hamas committed the worst attack on the Jewish state in fifty years, Israel’s cabinet officially declared war on the terrorist organization by invoking Article 40 Aleph.

Since the start of the conflict with the death toll anticipated to grow after Hamas terrorists fired hundreds of missiles and dispatched dozens of militants into Israeli communities, at least 700 Israelis have died, around 2,150 have been injured, and 100 have been verified as being held hostage by the Islamic terrorist organization.

On social media, horrifying videos of Hamas militants kidnapping festival goers and parading a woman’s bruised, naked body around the streets have gone viral.

Additionally, the group of abducted people includes Americans.

If the Navy is now on station with the USS Ford, I assume SEAL ops will begin shortly to rescue the hostages.

Without good intel this is impossible. The only thing that will save their lives is probably not an option, as that option is capitulation. Capitulation just means this insanity will continue. Perhaps a statement that the rules of war and the Geneva Conventions rule for war are null and void would save them. The bad guys have perhaps a few hundred hostages, we do not know. Tell the bad guys that their population of civilians are now legitimate targets in war. Oddly, those civilians understand this as it has been their practice for years.

I forgot to add that terror works. We nuked Nagasaki and Hiroshima that had some military value but not much. This was a terror raid and it worked.

“I assume SEAL ops will begin shortly to rescue the hostages.”

Since when has Obama/Biden ever rescued Americans?

“...Jarrett lived in Iran....”

Doesn’t John Kerry’s daughter live in Iran with her Iranian husband?? And didn’t she convert to the Muslim religion?? And doesn’t Kerry visit her often?? And hasn’t John Kerry’s entire professional life been as a traitor??

”I was in the Navy then sitting off the Straigt of Hormuz.”

So you already know a democrat administration won’t do anything like what you advocated.

VJ is a Demon.

I bet she helped Hamas and Iran to fund a RAVE that would kill hundreds
.
That Rave looks like a Hamas Iranian funded trap .
These Demons knew the event layout and times too well
and where to attack to get the most kills .

In perhaps the only descent thing the Obama/Biden administration ever did, it rescued Jessica Buchanan from her berserk African captors in a USN Seal raid.

Oh you are right -

I lived in Egypt for several years, when Al Queda was formed in the late 90s.

No depravity of Islamists surprises me.

You are helping the wrong side. And the cage photos are probably real, and even worse.

I’m not trying to ‘help’ anybody.

I appreciate truth.
