**** Official Israel War thread****

That would be great, but is it possible? Kind of like saying Mexicans should just rise up and rid themselves of the cartels. Probably easier said than done.
Much easier said than done. But imagine what would happen if those cartels started shooting rockets into Texas. How long do you think it would take before the U.S. responded. After the first rocket we'd have planes in the air blowing up anything that looked like a rocket on the ground. If needed then we'd invade Mexico and try to contain the cartels. The goal is to make sure it doesn't happen again and if that takes force then that's what will be done.
 
They have a right to defend themselves. If they were white we wouldn't be having this conversation. You're all racist bigots and on the wrong side of history

Instead of sending rockets they're sending fentanyl which has killed way more people than Hamas ever has.

Better bomb Mexico.
 
Lol. The US is freaking HUGE. How on earth do you plan on securing our borders?

This I will agree with you on, it’s difficult to secure the boarder everywhere. But that’s why we make it known not to screw with us or we’ll wipe you out. Fear can sometimes be a good deterrent.
 
Question, have we only struck 2 sites in retaliation for 40+ attacks on American troops? If yes...that feels like not much of a deterrent.

Are we really going to let them attempt to strike our troops 20+ times per time we fight back? Something doesn't seem right about that, but I'm not military trained.
 
They're scum.
Doesn't mean you bomb refugee camps or hospitals.
The two things can be true at the same time.
Hamas uses ambulances to transport fighters and weaponry. They use the hospitals as effective human shields for fighters, tunnels and weapons. Their paramedics aren’t really paramedics. I generally agree that Israel should take feasible steps to prevent a loss of innocent life, but war is hell and will always come with some.

The point of my posts is that Israel wouldn’t bomb those places if Hamas did not hide in them like cowards. There has been a huge outcry among a segment of otherwise educated folks in the USA that is conveniently ignoring that blatantly obvious fact.

Yes, we all agree Hamas sucks.
That doesn't mean you can kill as many civilians as you want in order to remove them. Well, it shouldn't.
 
Sorry Israel gave people plenty of time to hightail it south. Funny how only middle aged men are the ones still stuck around.

“Paramedics, humanitarian aid workers and media.” Ok.

I imagine most people in the IDF and most people in Israel don’t ”want” to kill civilians. And Israel has taken steps.
  • They repeatedly informed civilians to leave the north in leaflets in broadcasts and more…civilians defied the request to leave and Hamas in some cases blocked roads
  • They placed calls to Palestinian people informing them buildings would be bombed and asking them to get their neighbors out - there are multiple stories about this.
  • They asked Egypt to open the border to refugees.
I would support further practical steps if there are any…what do you suggest?

For political reasons, you have Israel pegged as the big bad wolf. You obviously refuse to understand what is actually going on in Palestine.

The IDF is going waaaay further to protect Palestinian civilians than most retaliating countries would do during a war, especially after they were invaded the way Israel was.

Did you read this story from yesterday? What type of heads-up did Isralis get on October 7th?

 
This in retaliation for them downing a reaper?

Iran seems to really want a fight….at some point this may become a good excuse for us to deal with Iran before they become a nuclear power.
I’m old school Republican enough that I would have bombed, at any time, a place where I thought Iran was developing nuclear capabilities. If anyone uses nukes again, I believe it will be them. They would have been warned ahead of time too. Don’t even think about it or the site will be destroyed. But that’s just me. I do not trust that country in the least.

War? That implies there are two sides fighting. This is a slaughter.

Yeah, there is clearly only one side fighting….the IDF soldiers who lost their lives must have fallen down stairs in Gaza?

Like I said, Israel didn’t start this fight….
