Hamas invaded Israel 2023

[Lumber]

Jesus could you be more hypocritical.

3 days ago, the US pushes for a new ceasefire:

US, other leaders call for Israel and Hamas to hammer out cease-fire deal

"‎‏It is time to bring immediate relief both to the long-suffering people of Gaza as well as the long-suffering hostages and their families," the leaders said.

Then, 2 days ago, the US releases $3.5 Billion to Israel so they can buy US made weapons.

Then the next day, Israel drops a bomb on a school. I guess you get what you pay for.

“Countries don’t have friends, they have interests” seems like an apt statement

31 total dead terrorists, but hamas says 90 “civilians” were killed…
Shouldn’t be using a school as your command center, but that school stopped being a school months ago.

I will agree. Once the indoctrination begins at a young age it is very difficult to undo the programming. IF you want peace in the ME start by telling young people on BOTH sides there are alternatives. NOW.

Only one side wanted to live in peace.

Israel will IMO continue its action against Hamas until the ingrained “River to the Sea” jihadist spirit against the State of Israel is no more.

Justifiably so.

 

[QV]

Eventually one side will win or both sides will get tired, and find a path to peace.

Right now, neither side is willing/wanting peace. (Generalization based on the leadership- not necessarily the individuals in the street).

This might be correct today, but before Oct 7 it was pretty obvious one side valued peace. Reap what you sow.

I would say that too be true of a large majority of the Israeli population, then and now, but Benny the BullDozer and the extremist settlers haven't wanted peace even before the Hamas massacre.
I'm pro-Israel, but I am not blind to their mistakes and excesses.

There will always be extremists it's just to what degree. The majority of Israel want peace, the majority of Palestine want the destruction of Israel.

FTFY. Lets not kid ourselves, that entire region would wipe out Israel without hesitation if they had the capability.

I agree 110%

So about that school and the death toll...
Looks to be a precision strike taken with care to get the bad guys but minimize civilian casualties --
