Political Thread in memory of David Reid. (R.I.P.)

Yes, BT, however, even throughout all the years there has been little large scale carnage until Hamas decided, on 7 October, that they would upset the apple cart by killing and kidnapping Israelis. What did they hope to achieve?
An idiot could have told them that Israel would look after themselves and this has been the case. THeir objective had to be to try to drive the world against Israel, however, Israel will always have powerful alllies so the whole thing was doomed to fail and the carnage which has ensued is collateral damage, which is always a consequence of all wars.
It will just rumble on and on in an escalated manner. Thank you Hamas.

Trading barbarity for barbarity is futile mein freund. I read when I was recently in Germany what is probably a very accurate, fairly neutral account and definitive of what Hamas did at Kibbutz Be'eri on October 7th. Stomach churning hardly covers sit.

It raised many questions for me. Where were the IDF on that fateful day? Why did the IDF remove the defensive weapons from the Kibbutz prior to the attack? How come Mossad who can hear a sparrow fart in Beirut did not act on intelligence pointing towards a Hamas attack. How on earth did the IDF allow a huge open-air concert to take place in a very dangerous location and why was there no IDF security provided on that fateful day.

Netanyahu has refused to apologise to the victims nor is he showing any urgency in recovering the live hostages, but goes into hysterics whenever a hostage is declared dead in Gaza.

I hold the view the October 7th massacre was engineered by Netanyahu to justify the annihilation and total destruction of Gaza.

My last question is for Hamas. What did they think the retribution would be after committing atrocities not seen since the Holocaust?

Peace? No chance whatsoever because the mutual hatred is so ingrained Muslims & Jews will never co-exist in peace in the Holy Land.

God is dead.

Just google the drone footage of Gaza Balan. The place is totally destroyed.

[Balan]

Since Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005, terrorists from the strip have fired more than 8,000 rockets into Israel. Yes, and actions have re-actions. You know that people in glass houses/shacks should not throw stones !

[Balan]

Just google the drone footage of Gaza, Balan. ''I am sure they do not understand Israel's message sent back to them.'' ''Its saying to them, look you see it,and now you don't.

I read this morning that there could be as many as 80,000 bodies lying under the Gazan rubble Balan. The eejits sling firework rockets into Israel that never kill anyone and the Jews respond with 20000lbs bombs that reduce acres of buildings into rubble and kill or maim hundreds.

It's madness and monstrous in equal measure.

[Balan]

Yes its madness ,but lets realize, if the Hamas people (gangs) did not fire firework rockets,( Oh! but they have killed !! )

(The eejits sling firework rockets into Israel that never kill anyone and the Jews respond with 20000lbs bombs that reduce acres of buildings into rubble and kill or maim hundreds.)


Question? Did any Hamas rockets kill Israelis?
From 2004 to 2014, these attacks have killed 27 Israeli civilians, 5 foreign nationals, 5 IDF soldiers, and at least 11 Palestinians and injured more than 1,900 people.

Since 2005, Hamas and other terrorist groups in Gaza have launched over 20,000 rockets and mortars at Israel, carried out more than one hundred suicide bombings, and dug dozens of terror tunnels into Israeli communities—all at the expense of the people of Gaza.

Occupied Territories. Say no more.

[Balan]

We were talking about Gaza. Question? Is Gaza Occupied?? If the Israelis occupied Gaza, there would be many brave IDF bodies moving
out in one direction. ''Occupied Territories'' which news are you watching??'' Gaza is like the wild west. Hamas rules the Gaza Strip club.

If they were not Israeli soldiers inside Gaza, (from time to time? They would be shooting at Israelis like shooting sitting ducks, from inside the strip, laying bombs on roads, already they fire rockets every day. ) But there is always talk of a cease fire???
( US officials say Gaza ceasefire deal is in sight, the first sign of serious optimism in months.)
American officials believe a ceasefire and hostages release deal in the Israel-Hamas war is now in sight, in what marks the first real sign of serious optimism inside the Biden administration in months, sources familiar with the issue told CNN.
''To be or not to be ,that is the question?''

I'll believe the ceasefire when it happens. I do wonder what will happen when it turns out there aren't more than a handful of hostages left alive, if that ?
