Hamas attacks Israel

[Mik]

Pretty much sums it up.

[Rainman]

I know our dearly departed Larry would have a thing or two to say. I miss him a lot, wish I could have met him RIP. Now back to the subject at hand.

[Mik]

Well, let me tell you what he would, and did say. "Push them into the sea!".

He's another who would have advocated the killing of a million children on his way to church.

I wonder if they have specific concerns besides missiles

a repeat of southern border breach. That’s what it comes to. Plenty of rural communities also on northern borders.

Then solve the problem and you won't have to hear it.

Ya sure, like we’re supposed to believe that Larry was imperfect, I don’t think so.

[George K]

Also, should we pin this thread?

[jon-nyc]

Now Israel is saying 1400 dead and 199 hostages.

[Mik]

Hamas is saying they might release the non-Israeli hostages if conditions are right, and they are being treated as guests.

Guests. Y’know, I do a lot of hosting and I do not recall ever hooding my guests.

Obviously, you host the wrong kinds of gatherings.

[Mik]

That’s at Jon’s house, George.

[jon-nyc]

@Mik said in Hamas attacks Israel:

That’s at Jon’s dungeon, George.

FIFY

[bachophile]

@jon-nyc it will go up to 1800 dead

still about 400 not IDed yet

@jon-nyc said in Hamas attacks Israel:

He will, once it’s feasible. In the mean time he’ll continue in the West Bank. He was interviewed hours after hearing the news and said there’s no other way forward in the long run.

After so many years of working closely with the Palestinians, they are no longer strangers, but your friends and colleagues. You don't blame your friends and colleagues for something done by terrorists not related to your friends and colleagues.

[Mik]

It's hard to hate people you know.

[jon-nyc]

In some cases it’s easier. Lol

2403 - Pearl Harbor
2977 - 9/11

The U.S. is huge compared to Israel. The numbers put it into perspective and the Israeli loss is staggering.

1,200,000 - Covid

It’s even worse, in my mind, when you consider the personal horror nature of these attacks. It’s one thing to know a loved one is in a building that had a plane flown into it. It’s quite another to see that your grandmother posted a video on Facebook, open it to watch, and you see a Hamas terrorist butchering your grandmother. That’s a completely different level of hell.
