    Funny thing here ... we have extreme rightwingers playing "like" button games and thinking they're impressing the rest of us.

    Process this ... I led the teachers' union fight in a community of 150,000 people with 20,000 students that ousted people who share your politics from the school board and replaced them with normal conservatives in a town with Baptist university.

    The extreme types on the school board thought they could bully people (like Trump does) and get away with it.

    Biden isn't to blame directly for Hamas. But empowering Iran by unfreezing 6B for a ****ing prisoner transfer...money that will likely find it's way to support Hezbollah/Hamas and Russia while putting a monetary price tag on Americans.

    Biden. Is a **** up.

    UNWRA Schools used by Hamas for weapons storage.

    Hamas rockets were stored in an UNRWA school in the Gaza Strip.

    'Additionally, UNRWA schools have been used to store Hamas weapons and promote anti-Semitic education in their textbooks. The Trump administration stopped funding UNRWA in 2018. The Biden administration restarted funding and has thus far provided more than $682 million to UNRWA without securing any reforms.'

    This is a potential problem with school vouchers. I think we'll need some controls, but with controls come bureaucracy.

    Hey libs, especially the woke libs; if these or similar Muslims, the kind that you all support, ever get control of you, you'd be the first people they'd eliminate.

    I've seen the recent videos of the Muslim savages and none of them have green hair or lipstick.

    That is correct. They will be in America and Europe. We all know how this works. A war happens in the Middle East and half the population is shipped to the West. Saudi Arabia won't let a single one of them into their country. PJW does a good job showing Palestinians rejoicing across Europe. Even the migrants flooding over Europe's borders are celebrating. The elites intend to bring this to our shores and nobody is doing a damn thing to stop them.

    I wouldn't have made the trade Biden did, but blaming him for Gaza is nuts.

    Hamas wants to stop the Saudis from getting together with Israel. Iran is weak because they have a young society who wants contact with the West.

    Women threaten to turn Islam, Sunni and Shia, inside out.

    Netanyahu isn't stupid enough to get bogged down trying to subdue 2+m Gazans.

    Hamas has openly stated they wanted hostages so they can trade them for the terrorists Israel has in prisons. That's their goal. Iran has a different goal and Biden's generosity, failure to enforce sanctions that made them billions, blatant appeasement and obvious weakness only encouraged Iran to set up this operation. They used Hamas as a tool and Hamas was all too willing to fall for it because now millions of Palestinians are going to pay the price.

    If I were Bibi, after Hamas said they’d execute hostages and send out the videos, I’d respond that for every dead hostage Israel will level 1,000 buildings.

    Europe or Canada, perhaps, but the United States wouldn't allow that. The Democrat "Sanctuary Cities" are whining about a few thousand Hispanic immigrants, there's no way in hell they will accept a couple million Muslims....

    Israelis live in a tough neighborhood. They know they can't expel 2m Gazans or turn them into starving refugees. We'll see how they play it.

    Netanyahu doesn't have much road left with Israelis and can't afford to screw this up. I figure he's going to punish the hell out of Gaza and while he's at it figure out how to neutralize Hamas.

    In the midst of horror, HEROES: In Heroic Battle, 15 People Saved Kibbutz Kerem Shalom From Hamas Massacre. Two brave defenders gave their all for those they fought to defend.

    [​IMG]

    'there was one Kibbutz where Hamas did not succeed in conquering the Kibbutz, did not take captives and did not cause any civilian casualties.'

    'At 6:30 A.M they awoke to sirens around the Kibbutz and the defenders, consisting of nine local residents with army training (former IDF soldiers) and six soldiers, prepared for the invasion. Amichai Yisrael Vitzan told his wife that “this is what we have been training for.” The small force deployed around the kibbutz in different places. Tens of terrorists infiltrated the kibbutz and the force engaged them in fierce fighting.'

    'Kerem Shalom’s 35 homes became a battlefield. In the first hours the force eliminated many of the terrorists and for 6 hours continued the battle alone. In on of the shootouts, the wife of Moshe Yedidia Raziel heard heavy shooting and then Yedidia shouted: “We eliminated them”.'

    The most dangerous time for an army is after they believe they have won.

    'This was the last she heard from him. A few hours after the fighting started, a terrorist surprised Amichai Yisrael and Moshe Yedidia from behind and murdered both of them. Amichai (33) left five children and Moshe (31) left three children. Both were friends from the same community (Psagot), both were studying social work in Ashkelon and both came to help the struggling kibbutz. It was their heroic struggle which saved the kibbutz members from the fate of neighboring communities. All of the families were saved (two other members of the fighting group were injured) and nobody was taken captive. The army arrived only at 1 PM after the group had fought off Hamas for six hours.'

    Can you imagine hard core Muslims in liberal cities? LGB would need to shelter in place.

    Won't happen in Europe or Canada, either. I'm quite sure Israel is aware they'll lose EU support if they create a refugee crisis.
    Why don't you play culture wars in another thread?

    "Conflicts" such as this are a matter of formality. Like Megan Rapinoe vs Lionel Messi, Colin Kaepernick vs Tom Brady, or Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul. We know it's going to be one-sided. We know it's going to be ugly. We know who is going to win. Yet, we can't look away....

    All of the above
    If Hamas were to hide their weapons in the basement of a Catholic Church, Israelites would accuse the Priest of being complicit.

    BUT, there’s two sides to every accusation.

    In reference to everything you said about UNRWA, I’ve read their counterstatements.

    Bottom line; Where’s your proof that UNWRA funding were diverted to Hamas’ war chest, and by UN officials?

    Oh, now you want to talk about Israel instead of Trump. Instead of talking about Israel, I’d rather talk about the number of body bags Hamas needs right now.
