This is Bibi effectively calling for a massacre. "Residents of Gaza get out now"? Get out to where? Israel has kept them locked up there for 16 years now. Where are they supposed to "get out" to? Another poster who hates Israel and thinks it’s perfectly OK for someone to kill almost 100 people. But you’re worried about their apartment buildings.

How many apartment buildings should Israel bomb in retaliation? I’m trying to figure out what kind of person excuses this kind of attack that kills that many people? What kind of person does that? Show me where I did that. Attacks on civilians are abhorrent and Israel's response shouldn't include targeting them intentionally.

So it’s OK for Hamas to attack large groups of people which they obviously did but it’s not OK for Israel to do the same?

I do think decades of running Gaza as an open-air prison and supporting settler pogroms against Palestinians was bound to elicit a response from Hamas and its allies.

This was not a good choice by Hamas, but ask yourself, how many good choices did Israel leave them?

This is Bibi effectively calling for a massacre. If this was almost any country other than Israel we would be calling this threat out for what it is, ethnic cleansing of the Gaza Strip.

The United States moving a carrier group nearby is a bad sign I think. Signaling a lot of cover for whatever Israel decides to do next.

I suppose it could be a warning to Syria or Iran not to try to hit Israel from behind, but it could possibly be a way to remind Israel that if they go too far, the US could decide to intervene.

WSJ reporting: Iranian security officials helped plan Hamas’s Saturday surprise attack on Israel and gave the green light for the assault at a meeting in Beirut last Monday, according to senior members of Hamas and Hezbollah.
Things are going to explode
No wonder a major Carrier Group is heading to the Eastern Mediterranean

And the US has their hands tied behind them a bit with no Speaker nor Chief of Naval Operations. Those Republicans sure know how to govern.

Hamas has allies in Iran and Lebanon, and informal allies across the Arab World. This is timed in part to put pressure on Saudi Arabia potentially recognizing Israel. It's a stark reminder that Hamas' mission is actually genocide, and they have - and have always had - broad support from the Palestinian people from this. The situation of the Palestinian people is tragic, but it is also because they outright refuse to coexist.

You don't think Iran took some of that money supposedly earmarked for " the people," so generously donated by the United States idiot Biden admin and funded some of this?

No, Iran can only access that money for very specific purposes, and in fact hasn’t yet spent a dime of it. Stop listening to Trump, it will only turn your brain to a mushy stew of conspiracies, lies, snd general incoherence…oh. Oops.
