IDF needs to work on the HAMAS & their supporters numbers.

One left alive, can breed dozens more

#3 It is important to remember the Islamic Terrorists & Arab Nations have been attacking Israel for over 60+ years using various group names.

However, the media and the Pro-Palestinian HAMAS supporters want us to focus on using an invalid comparison. By comparing the most recent large scale terrorist attack on Civilians to the Seek & Destroy operation currently under way.

In all seriousness, Israel should have been doing this years ago.
Think about how many, peace agreements have the Islamic Terrorists / Arabs nations broken in that 60+ years?

How many in GAZA / Palestine have been found to have supported Hamas and other terrorist groups, allowing them to use their homes, hospitals, businesses to start and dig tunnels. Tunnels used to store weapons/supplies, terrorists and to launch attacks to murder Israeli citizens, not soldiers, CITIZENS?

SERIOUSLY, a 100+ miles of a 10x10 ft tunnels works out to over 25,387,200 TONS of dirt & rock. So, they didn't dig and blast out over 100 miles of tunnels and dispose of the dirt & rock w/o locals and their government in the know.

I am sure any nation would support eliminating a constant threat to its own nation & civilians. Except maybe the current LSD's in the DC Swamp here.

Especially when the attacker has done it over and over, and cannot be trusted to honor their own demanded terms for the agreements.

BTW: GAZA refugees seem to love Canada, and the USA just happens to have an OPEN BORDER there also.

#4 attacking Israel for over 60+ years

Longer than that, NN2N1. Look up Jabotinsky and the 1920 Palestine riots. Earlier than that, Hashomer (the watchman) was founded in 1909 to defend Jewish communities in the Holy Land from Arab banditry.

TW you are very correct.
In my lame defense, I did say 60+ 😇.

I only go back to the 1967 6 days war, and I was in PHV Heidelberg, when I heard it on SW US AF-Radio of the attacks. At the time, my US Army Dad was in the area setting up Quick-talk sites in the Mid-E and Suez Canal area nations. He was lucky he got back.

#7 Mohammedans! What could be odder
Than to re-do the slaughter at Badr
In modern Gazoo --
More barbarically, too! --
And be shocked that you're gawd's canon fodder?

#8 In my lame defense, I did say 60+ 😇.

You did indeed, my dear. And before 1948 it wasn’t Israel, merely Jewish communities. All the way back, as Grom points out, to the seventh century.
