Hamas attacks Israel
-
Some talking head commented that, despite Netanyahu's political problems with the court system and other investigations, this is the kind of shit the brings the country together.
I may be wrong, but the Jews tend to be ruthless when it comes to this kind of shit.
I wonder how they will deal with the hostages that have been taken, presumably to act as human shields to prevent more aggressive responses from the Israelis. I hope they will not be considered "collateral damage," but I would not be surprised if they are.

Just a quick domestic political comment, under the irony is ironic column...
In the last 40 years, some of the strongest supporters of Israel have been Jon's MAGATs and evangelicals. Some of the weakest, have been the Democrat Party.
Just an observation, carry on...

@George-K said in Hamas attacks Israel:
From the post:
But, more importantly, in a larger sense the Biden administration has contributed both to the notion that Hamas was a legitimate Middle East player, and to the perception that the U.S. was backing away from its traditional support for Israel—to the delight of Hamas—based on the following inexplicable policies:
- In February Secretary of State Blinken had bragged that not only had the Biden administration resumed massive aid to the PLA cancelled by Trump, but cumulatively had transferred $1 billion—even as Palestinian authorities bragged that they would continue to pay bounties to the families of “martyrs” (i.e., those killed while conducting terrorists attacks against Israel).
And millions of American dollars also went into Gaza, run by Hamas—despite the Biden administration’s efforts to keep mostly quiet the resumption of such inexplicable support. In this regard, note the current shameful State-Department (“U.S. Office of Palestinian Affairs”) website news release that was posted after today’s attack. It ended with this quite embarrassing, morally equivalent admonition:
“We urged all sides to refrain from violence and retaliatory attacks. Terror and violence solve nothing.”
"All sides?" "Refrain from retaliatory attacks?”
So Israel is the moral equivalent of terrorists executing civilians and brutalizing their corpses? And the IDF then is not supposed to retaliate against these killers?
This Biden State Department insanity cannot stand. So expect some apparatchik to take down this Munich-like posting as soon as possible.
