IT’S TIME TO CRUSH GAZA
Powerrline ^ | 15 Oct 2023 | John Hinderaker

Posted on 10/15/2023 6:48:55 PM PDT by Rummyfan

When a country is invaded by a foreign power, the only sane response is to retaliate with massive, overwhelming, disproportionate force. And when an invader commits the kinds of atrocities that we have seen over the last week, unprecedented in modern times, vengeance must be the order of the day.

War is a terrible thing. But the Gazans started this war, and war is what they are going to get. Every resulting casualty should be laid at the foot of Hamas and all Gazans who have supported and collaborated with Hamas–a large majority, by all indications.

But there is something else going on, something beyond even Israel’s need to win the war or the entirely appropriate desire to exact revenge. The Palestinians, and Gazans in particular, have the sickest culture on Earth. Little productive work is done; Gaza exists largely as the beneficiary of international welfare. Instead of goods and services, the main product of Gaza is ideology–the perverted ideology of Jew-hatred.

Of all the appalling images that have emerged from Israel and Gaza, this one may be the most chilling. A captured Israeli boy who appears to be around six or seven years old is tormented by Palestinian children....

“”AN IED here, a sniper there, and soon the drip drip drip starts.””

Perhaps. I would like to see an up-armored bulldozer. A very large front blade just demolishing everything in its path. Five or ten in a line could be very effective. The Israeli tanks behind the bulldozers. Airpower above with bunker-busting munitions.

For decades Israel has been providing food, water, building materials to Gaza. Time to reclaim the building materials. Hamas could care less about water. They dug up the pipeline and used the segments to create rockets.

The buildings should be saved for the new occupants-displaced Christians.

Israel is not in the business of providing housing for displaced Christians, whoever that might be.

Since we are talking about “coincidence” ever wonder why three areas under heavy fire all have major league tunnels underground with equally as much jeopardy underground than above.
Ukraine,Maui and the Gaza strip are all pocketed with miles and miles of tunnels and what goes on in these tunnels is a major part of the problem.

It is not Hamas that must be destroyed, but it is Islam itself and it’s Global Jihad that must superseded.

Its all about Islam and we are the infidels. The cult of islam is the problem and always has been. It leads only to death for all concerned.

The real fighting for gaza will be done in the tunnels. No one knows them any better than the ones who built them: the terrorists.

The tunnels be booby trapped with bad guys hiding everywhere. It wont be pretty and will take a lot of patience to root them all out.

Once they are rooted out of the tunnels they fade back into the population and its not any easier to take them out.

The IDF is made up of trained, patriotic soldiers. Hamas is a terrorists org. that cuts the heads off of babies.Two different groups.

Move them all to Sinai. Let Sinai be their country. It can have secure borders, access to fresh water and other resources and can be the model and business case for a green society.

It could be a reason why so many in the world down-right hate them. Guess this makes Christians the chumps.

If Israel does not claim the land and permanently evict the Arabs and Shia, they will be back on the attack again and again.

Yep. There was a reason God told the Children of Israel to utterly annihilate some (not all) of their enemies. He knew they would be vipers.

They are up-armored to be IED and land mine resistant.

Are you serious?! What country provides housing to a religious minority? This is not the reason so many hate on Israel.
