Hamas Launches Infiltration, Rocket Attack on Israel

[phylodog]

Two sides to every story and both are based on perspective which can change the same picture dramatically.

I know precious little about the history of the middle east to include Gaza and Israel. To be perfectly honest I don't care to know and don't intend to do the research to come to an educated opinion. My primary reason is because of my first statement in this post. The second reason is that I'm ok with not having an educated (or not so) opinion on everything. I'm tired of choosing sides constantly and pitting myself against people I don't know. It's exhausting and I no longer have the desire to participate at any depth.

I'm choosing to take the 30,000' view and look no deeper than this. Peaceful people were going about their day as usual and they were violently attacked without warning and subjected to atrocities we might expect from a starving pack of rabid hyenas. A group of people made a conscious decision to commit those atrocities and I'll hold harmless the victims as they respond as they deem appropriate.

If it were me and mine I'd go scorched earth and ask for forgiveness later.

HORRIFIC: George Soros Demanded ‘America and Israel Must Open the Door to Hamas'

In a 2007 op-ed, leftist billionaire George Soros outrageously called on America and Israel to “open the door[s]” to Hamas, and now that clarion call has come back to haunt him.

All the way back in 2015 BLM called for the end of Israel.

75 million from this administration?
Try over 1 billion.

Grants and Funding Opportunities

Blinken announces $110M in new Gaza funding. Now comes the hard part.

To get humanitarian aid to Gaza, the administration will have to placate Congress, avoid Hamas and route cash through international partners.

400 million+ just for development aid. Not counting the hundreds of million in humanitarian aid.

U.S. Taxpayers Sent More Than $400 Million to Gaza Since Hamas Takeover

The United States invested more than $400 million in taxpayer funds on development projects inside the Gaza Strip since Hamas took over the territory in 2007, according to government funding documents.

Biden gave Hamas 75 million the day before the attack is what I was referring too. Down payment for 10k + Hamas soldiers/terrorists in Gaza. $500 in Gaza is a lot of money.

Think Biden would ever do something like this?
Without falling.

Can't be true. I learned on INGO that cuddly bear Putin is a good guy, and only attacks sovereign countries when they attack him.

I think I have seen this before, but it was in black and white.

Something about never letting this happen again?

All these people are ok with decapitated babies as long as it’s done to Jews.

What I do know about Middle East history caused me to be sympathetic toward the Palestinians years ago. The more I watched the more they seemed to work against their own best interests. After this attack, I developed a sentiment similar to yours. Nothing excuses the atrocities that were committed. Any country, including Israel, has the freedom to respond as they see fit to such atrocities.

It doesn't surprise me at all, but it does sadden me that there is a single voice supporting the Palestinians anywhere in the world.

Katz is about as far left as you can get and still believe he is a Republican. A solid Rino if not a communist in GOP clothing.

Yes, 100% agree.
