Hamas attacks Israel
-
Egypt warned Israel.
Egypt said as much a few days ago but now the chairman of the house foreign relations committee is saying it too.
-
Difficult to interpret. How often does Israel receive such warnings, what was the specific warning, etc.

Lots of stuff on “x” (formerly known as Twitter) but this guy gave me a smile
Shared with my son. Not that he’s said anything about the Israel and the Middle East, but he’s in college and probably being flooded with wrong impressions.

It's not a very good plan, is it:
"Step 1: murder and torture hundreds of people, rape women, decapitate babies, abduct children."
"Step 2: beg the survivors of the murdered, tortured, raped, and abducted people to supply electricity, food, and water."
Only non-witches get due process.

Goes in line with Andrea Mitchell's amazing interview.

From the neocon who ballyhooed the invasion of Iraq. He may be right, but I don't pay much attention to Frum anymore...

It would be simplifying to assume the agents who did step 1 are the same agents doing step 2.

Sums it up quite nicely.
I rather like Frum and his brand of conservatism. Need more of it.
