Ok, buddy

They do live under a dictatorship, you can deny that, but its true. Israel will do what they do, but don't be surprised if unfettered brutality and mass killings lead to people--not you--thinking of Israel as just as bad as those who provoked them. And it will probably get the hostages killed, also. But, I get it, maybe that's just what's going to happen. Hamas ain't going away on their own

Be interesting to see how long Israel can be in this state YESODOT, Israel — On the road outside the military base, hundreds of cars were pulled onto the shoulders for a half-mile in either direction: Kias, Toyotas, pickups and bakery vans. It was a pop-up parking lot for war, a place for military reservists to park, hurry into the base as civilians and leave as soldiers. No one knows when they will be back for their personal cars — or their civilian lives. Are you on Telegram? Subscribe to our channel for the latest updates on Russia’s war in Ukraine. Twenty miles east, at Jerusalem’s popular Malha Mall, the parking lot is all but empty. Almost every shop is closed, here and across the country. Those who would normally work and shop are pouring into the ranks. Others are making their own preparations for a conflict that promises to be long-lasting and hard-hitting. As the world awaits Israel’s next response to the Hamas surprise attack, Israel is transforming into a country at war. Israel is massing troops near the Gaza Strip in its war against Hamas as evidence suggests the militant group has taken at least 64 captives, including civilians. Follow . People working in offices and fields just five days ago are back in uniform, some 360,000 of them so far, in one of the largest mobilizations in the country’s history. Schools are closed. Local governments are straining to provide services as their workforces dwindle. An empty parking lot at a closed shopping mall in Sderot, near the Israel-Gaza border.

Streets normally jammed with honking traffic are quiet. Jaffa Street, a popular shopping strip in Jerusalem, was a ghost town Wednesday night, lined with flashing police cars. Construction sites are silent, and the Palestinian laborers who normally work at them have been prohibited from crossing over from the West Bank since Saturday. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2023/10/12/israel-mobilization-gaza-war/

Sounds like a trustworthy poll 🙄 So we use polls to determine how many get slaughtered. That's screwed up Hold on, what? Have you not figured out this is a political board? Your butt gets an itch if someone mentions how bad that POS Trump is? Sounds like you are the one with the problem buddy

Because its a dictatorship. That's what the fight is all about in the world today. Israel could overplay its hand here if it just wastes 100,000 people and the hostages are killed

Innocent people on both sides are getting killed, regardless of age gender or whatever

So I guess the hostages are just going to be a secondary priority. Tough decision. Real tough, but gotta do what you have to do, I guess Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, a spokesman for the Israel Defense Forces, said in a televised briefing Thursday that Israel would no longer allow Hamas to exist as an entity next door. “Unlike other operations, we are collapsing the governance and sovereignty of the Hamas organization,” he said. Israel has mobilized 360,000 reservists in recent days and armored divisions are massing near the border with Gaza. “Humanitarian aid to Gaza? No electrical switch will be lifted, no water hydrant will be opened and no fuel truck will enter until the Israeli hostages are returned home. Humanitarian for humanitarian. And nobody should preach us morals,” he posted on the social media platform X, previously known as Twitter. Any ground invasion is expected to be longer, bloodier and larger than last time in 2014 and would likely have to destroy Hamas’s extensive underground tunnel network. In that war, troops just focused on the outskirts of urban areas. But the Israeli military insists this time that the soldiers will not hesitate to enter even the most densely packed areas, where the hostages are believed to be held. Airstrikes have already been wider than in the past, and the army has abandoned engagement rules like “roof knocks,” a tactic by which the Israeli air force delivers warnings by firing nonexplosive or low yield devices on buildings before destroying them. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2023/10/12/israel-seeks-end-hamas-gaza-war/

When hasn't the border been a disaster? There's crime in the USA? Really? Ok Wars happen, thank God that idiot Trump didn't have a foreign crisis to slobber all over.

Destroyed a good chunk of his army. Weak? Who called that murderous thug a genius? Not Biden

Weakest leader? Tell that to Putin

The world is lucky that POS Trump is not President now. What a mess he'd make of things. Really? What about those shipment of weapons Biden sent? There has to be some technology available that could explore those tunnels. Drones or robots or something Israeli troops are massing on the border of Gaza following Saturday’s surprise attack inside of Israel, but their orders are still unclear. What is clear, however – according to Israeli troops who’ve fought inside Gaza before – any invasion is going to be difficult, dangerous and bloody. Gaza – with more than 15,000 people per each of its 139 square miles – is one of the most densely populated places in the world. Inside military circles in Israel, there are two Gazas to contend with: Upper Gaza, which is everything above ground, and lower Gaza, where bombs and drones can’t get to, and sophisticated satellites can’t see deep under the ground. “You have babies and terrorists in the same house,” said one reserve soldier who declined to give his name due to his role in Israel’s security service. The soldier has fought in Gaza several times over the last 15 years. Israel believes Hamas is trying to draw soldiers into territory the militant group knows much better. Officials expect the tunnels and ground throughout the area to be booby-trapped with explosives. “Nobody really knows what’s underground,” said Harel Chorev, a Palestinian historian at Tel Aviv University’s Moshe Dayan Center for Middle East and African Studies. Israel’s intelligence community believes much of the money and material the world gave to the people of Gaza to rebuild after previous wars has been taken by Hamas and reinvested in the elaborate system of tunnels and bunkers. “I don’t see Israeli soldiers being able to storm these tunnels,” Chorev said. Instead he believes they will try and locate them and find ways to “smoke them out.” https://www.cnbc.com/2023/10/12/israel-hamas-war-gaza-tunnels-pose-deadly-challenge.html

“No electrical switch will be turned on, no water hydrant will be opened, and no fuel truck will enter until the Israeli abductees are returned home. Humanitarian for humanitarian. And no one will preach us morals,” Katz said Thursday. https://www.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-news-hamas-war-10-12-23/index.html Really??? Explosive allegations: The Israeli government has not confirmed the specific claim that Hamas attackers cut off the heads of babies during their shock attack on Saturday, an Israeli official told CNN’s Matthew Chance, contradicting a previous public statement by the Prime Minister’s office. “There have been cases of Hamas militants carrying out beheadings and other ISIS-style atrocities. However, we cannot confirm if the victims were men or women, soldiers or civilians, adults or children,” the official said. The explosive allegations that children had been decapitated at the kibbutz of Kfar Aza emerged Tuesday in Israeli media. https://www.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-news-hamas-war-10-12-23/index.html

https://news.yahoo.com/far-roadshow-trump-gods-anointed-100058315.html The two-day church revival held in August just outside Las Vegas featured nearly 70 speakers who preached that vaccines are poisonous and will bring about the end of the world, that a cabal of global leaders is engaged in child sex trafficking and that the 2020 election was stolen. Through it all was an apocalyptic drumbeat that the country will be destroyed if Trump doesn't become president again. God wants him to win in 2024, speakers proclaimed to their audience, and as Christians they have been called upon to ensure he does. "We know the one in charge up above, and I can tell you that I believe that he has his hand now on Donald Trump, that no weapon formed against him shall prosper," Trump's daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, told the crowd. "God is a part of this race. I'm telling you guys this. I feel it deep down inside."

This will haunt Israel for decades. No matter what happens there will be accusations and recriminations flying every which way. Those poor families crying on TV while the military bombs Gaza. Insane. Wish it could just all end https://www.the-sun.com/news/9303287/hamas-hostages-hidden-secret-tunnels-egypt-nightmare/ HOSTAGES snatched by Hamas could have been buried alive, hidden in secret tunnels across the border or even moved to Egypt, a counter-terrorism expert has warned. Author Samuel Katz, who spent years observing elite special units of Israel's Defence Forces, explained that the fate of the Israeli hostages is a "nightmare scenario" for Israel. The terror group has threatened to execute some of the 150 civilian hostages, amid escalation of the conflict. Hamas issued a chilling warning on Monday, that they would kill a captive for every civilian house bombed in Gaza without warning. The terrorists have even threatened to release disturbing videos of hostages begging for their lives. Katz explained how the current hostage situation is unique as there are multiple locations where captives could be held and described it as "uncharted territory." He told The Sun: "We are in uncharted territories, this is unprecedented. "Large-scale hostage rescues have usually involved one location- they've involved aircraft trains, tubular assaults that would enable one entry, one exit or multiple points that the rescuers could breach. “You can have hostages that are now in a tunnel near the Israeli frontier, and you can have hostages that have been moved near the Egyptian border. “You can have hostages that have been buried alive. The barbarism that was displayed by the attack provides no envelope into how these poor individuals might be treated and where they might be situated."

Syrian state television said Israel targeted the country’s two largest airports in Damascus and Aleppo, damaging runways and putting the two airports out of service. There was no immediate confirmation from Israel, which has struck both airports in the past. Thursday’s strikes came a day after mortars were lobbed from Syrian territory toward Israel, falling on an open area.

And hence, that's why Speaker nominee Scalise won't say if Biden actually won, he can't! How stupid

Oh, but some lone wolf BLM person sent out a tweet.

Tree of Life slaughter of Jews in Pittsburgh was not done by a BLM person BLM?

He didn't call our soldiers "Suckers and Losers"

Even Hitler had to deal with young men that were not psychotic killers.

Wow. Was this after he was taken into Gaza? Awful

Yes, can we get a speaker that just acknowledged the truth that Biden won? Is that really that hard?

Bucking what? Oh, is that what they are saying on Fox? Most Dems support Hamas?

ISIS either must have influenced through videos this group or members from it--both Sunni--came to Hamas and made it even worse. There are stories of Hamas invaders that did't do anything to the people they met. Women served them food and they left. Maybe that's why death toll wasn't much higher

Not positive, but don't think that's a tank, more like a self propelled 155mm howitzer
