Two million people live in Gaza. Occupying such a city filled with highly motivated terrorists is expensive and bloody. Egypt doesn’t want that headache. And I suppose neither does Israel. This will be a very difficult problem to solve.
Some here have advocated the complete and utter destruction every possible Hamas asset. That might be the only solution.

Europe was torn with mayhem and brutal warfare as the Christian religion split into various factions. Americans were well aware of this history and made freedom of Religion one of our bedrock principles. The idea that a particular religion could be fundamentally evil is quite foreign to American beliefs, but Islam , at its core , is evil.
Bret Baier had trouble reporting the story. Had to stop and collect himself.
I do NOT think Egypt wants any of them.
Dear God. I know Anderson Cooper and Nic Robertson had to stop to breathe...just to get through these reports.
At work now. Trying to keep up.
Barbaric savages.
It’s too late for any peace. Hamas is finished and they should have known this would happen.
Only after every last man, woman and child in Gaza is driven into the sea.
“It was here. The battlefield was here. The Carthaginians defending the city were attacked by three Roman Legions. Carthaginians were proud and brave, but they couldn’t hold. They were massacred. Arab women stripped them of their tunics and their swords and lances. The soldiers lay naked in the sun, two thousand years ago, and I was here.”
I’ve been around for a long, long year Stole many a man’s soul and faith I was ‘round when Jesus Christ Had his moment of doubt and pain Made damn sure that Pilate Washed his hands and sealed his fate, Pleased to meet you

Unfortunately, yes. And I say unfortunately because - as you noted - freedom of religion is a very important concept.
To those who might doubt what you said there, consider this. Islam is the ONLY major religion today that advocates death for anyone who leaves the religion and death for anyone who mocks the religion.
Those are not just the beliefs of some Muslim fringe group. They are core Muslim beliefs. The civilized world continues to ignore that. And so Islam has no incentive to reform.
Psychos don’t have the ability to think things through.
Indeed. No nation wants them, least of all their Arab brothers. But the current situation cannot continue.
After all of Gaza is leveled flat and all their tunnels destroyed, I’d consder it.
Limited war means forever war.
The only way to end a conflict permanently, is to have the losing side hurt so much from the war that the next three generations of children learn and believe that the war was a bad idea.
Truce, i believe in mooslum, is called hudna. It means reloading.
So do Democrats especially Joe and Kamala
Certainly worked on the Germans.
I posted this after 9/11 ... just change the point of view to the Israelis ...
200 years from now, I want their children's children's children
to cower and cringe in fear whenever they hear the sounds of jet engines overhead
because their legends tell of fire from the sky.
I want them to hide in dark caves and holes in the earth,
shivering with terror whenever they hear the roar of diesel engines
because the tales of their ancestors talk about metal monsters
crawling over the earth, spitting death and destruction.
I want their mothers to be able to admonish them with
"If you don't behave, the Pale Destroyers will come for you",
and that will be enough to reduce them to quivering obedience.
I want the annihilation to be so complete that their mythology
will tell them of the day of judgment when the stern gods from across the sea
.. the powerful 'Mericans .. destroyed their forefathers' wickedness.
