Agree.
Hamas chose poorly.
They will be eliminated, looks like Bibi and Israel is handling it in the best way.
Gaza has always been a problem.
Hezbollah?
A 2 carrier strike force is on the doorstep. Israel knows where the regional threats are.
God is still in control.
Israel is ready to take out Hezbollah.
Israel has changed after this slaughter, called the greatest slaughter since the Holocaust.
Israel seems to have decided that their fate is their hands and no one else’s and they don’t care what the West thinks. Watch and listen to the link below. Israel is fully prepared to wipe out Hamas (& I believe they will) and wipe out other regimes that carry the idea of eliminating Israel.
In the link below, the Israeli journalist calmly says in so many words that Hamas is gone, they just don’t know it yet...and they will come after and destroy Hezbollah also.

I would like to offer a theory on the 2 Carrier Strike Groups in the Eastern Mediterranean and how potentially vulnerable they might be.
First Hamas will never be eliminated, Israel could kill every Hamas Terrorist in Gaza and in a few years, they would rebuild with new Muslims and keep fighting, until Iran is eliminated nothing will change.
Over the years we’ve seen a number of attacks that would have been considered impossible the day before the attack happened, Dec 7 1941, Sept 11 2001, the attack last Saturday by Hamas.
IMO, the US Navy Strike Groups were built to fight off a naval attack, thru submarines, surface ships, enemy air attacks, anti-ship missiles, etc...
What if the attack on a Carrier was conducted in a manner that was never conceived possible in the past, using assets that are not conventional military.
This is just one scenario I have thought of, suppose a commercial civilian airliner took off from a nearby Muslim country, maybe Emirates Air, Etihad, or some other Muslim Airline, flown by experience Muslim pilots. The plane is squawking as a passenger airliner flying over the eastern Med.
On a clear day, a US Navy Carrier could be seen from 25-30,000 ft, by a Boeing 757 or Airbus A340 or larger jet, fully loaded with fuel traveling at 400-500 mph.
At that speed how long would it take for a plane to reach the surface potentially hitting the carrier in a Kamikaze style attack, maybe 1-2 minutes max.
Certainly the carrier would be tracking the plance, how long would it take for the carrier to take evasive action or launch a counter attack to take down the plane before it hit.
A 30-second delay would be catastrophic. The plane is a passenger jet, it might delay the reaction long enough to allow the jet to hit.
My point, a conventional military attack on a Carrier Strike Group would be impossible, a totally unconventional attack by an enemy who has no problem dying to carry an attack on the USA could succeed.
This will eliminate the proxy wars that have existed for decades in Middle East. Hamas will be gone (Zeph 2:). Hezbollah will expose itself and be eliminated as well. I expect some of what Dugan states will take place but it will not lead to wider conflict outside of Middle East. Part of me sees the AlAqsa mosque being destroyed and no more West Bank as well. Israel is better off controlling all the land and eliminating the ‘political’ positions held by Fatah within their own borders. Fatah organization right now appears very similar to our current administration. Feckless
My concern is the aircraft carriers will be used to enforce a no fly zone against Israel at some point. It may also prevent other ‘bad actors’ from engaging long enough for Israel to clean it out for themselves. It will need to be decisive and quick.
