Hamas strike on Israel

Just checking - Hamas and IDF are both terrorists. So it would be hypocrisy to not believe one yet believe the other.

You appear to be unaware of the hostage situation. The Govt. doesn't care about the hostages. Of course the hostages families do care and yes, they are protesting at the Govt refusing to accept the Hamas ceasefire proposal.

I posted last year that Hamas were defeated - because the IDF stated that. My position on Hamas has been very clear - they are terrorists and must be eliminated. Not sure why you feel the need to ask the question to be honest. Unless you think you had a "gotcha" moment?

You must have missed the news over the last 24 hours - Israel is taking over Gaza. Ben-Gvir attended a Settler movement event a few months back who had laid out all their plans to Settle Gaza.

I explained why no-one has stepped up to offer to police Gaza - self-preservation. They don't want to be on the end of an IDF 2000lb bomb or a sniper's bullet. Or even and IDF bulldozer. Simple.

Eh? No idea what you are talking about at all now - but I'll try.

You believe neither the IDF or Hamas - correct?

And how have you surmised that I believe Hamas? I believe the reports from e.g. RTE, BBC, Haaretz and others when they quote the Qatari mediators who relay the Hamas position or those reporting IDF lies.

Probably not the gotcha you were hoping for I suspect.

Israel are not even hiding their evil/illegal intentions anymore and yet their fanboys can't get enough. Only muslims.

Poor SeanW thinks that Ukraine attacked Russia or tries to flip my post. I compared Israel and Russia. Both land-grabbing and bombing innocents and said that Putin and Bibi are so alike in their ways. They really are.

They are also both wanted by the ICC for War Crimes. And both on the run.

It would only be worthwhile getting travel brochures for Hungary as they'll be one of very few counties who wouldn't arrest them and ship them off to The Hague.

She saw everyone? Really? Was she brought around the city on a tour?

Any more from the Henry Jackson Society?

Netanyahu cannot visit another EU country or he will be behind bars and deservedly so.

Q. Do you think Netanyahu has any questions to answer? Don't expect a response.

As usual, some very interesting snippets from Haaretz today - particularly the first item - the irony of Smotrich using the "C" word will be lost on no-one

The other items: Israel is a democracy? Don't think so; War Criminal #1 sucks up to his buddy War Criminal # 3; Israel demolish almost an entire Palestinian village in the West Bank.

• Far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich said that in a few months, Israel will be able to declare that it has won the war in Gaza. "What will the image of victory look like? Gaza is completely destroyed. [Gaza's] civilians will be concentrated from the Morag Corridor southwards to a humanitarian area where Hamas and terrorism are absent," and from there, the Palestinians "will start leaving for a third country. Our hostages will have returned home," he said at the Makor Rishon newspaper's conference on settlement.
• At a Knesset committee session, lawmaker Simcha Rothman cut off the sister of a hostage killed in captivity after she warned against obeying "unequivocally illegal orders," accusing her of promoting disobedience by soldiers. "Anyone flirting with disobedience [to orders] won't be given the right to speak. I'm very sensitive to disobedience," Rothman said.
• PM Netanyahu spoke with Russian President Putin by phone, thanking him for his assistance in securing the release of Russian-Israeli hostage Sasha Troufanov. Netanyahu's office said Putin initiated the call, which took place on the 80th anniversary of Nazi Germany's defeat in World War II.
• Israel demolished most of the Palestinian village of Khallet al-Daba in the Masafer Yatta area of the southern West Bank on Monday, in what residents described as the largest demolition to date in the region. A visit to the village revealed that nearly all structures had been leveled, with only five still standing amid widespread rubble and scattered belongings.
