So now that Hamas is asking for help, Obama will try and force Israel into a cease fire.

Exactly, and may Netanyahu tell 0bama to stuff it.

What did they think Israel’s response would have been when they shot over 200 missiles into crowded cities???? Now they’re whimpering to 0bozo to tell Israel to cut it out?

This was an entirely appropriate retaliation. The next time Hamas considers attacking Israel they will fear that the IDF will exceed its last response.

We know what the mohammedan cockroaches would do to Israel if they had the military advantage.

....”Hamas apparently expected a limited response to the recent rocket attacks on Israeli cities and towns. But as the IDF intensified its strikes against Hamas targets – including the homes of some of its top commanders – it became clear to the movement’s leaders that Israel means business”......

The question will be if or not the other Middle East nations come into the fray....Palestinians are known to flaunt their wounded and injured to gain sympathy from their neighbors..and cry and wail with all the drama they can muster. They do so because eventually it works.

I haven't seen a lot of it because frankly Israels strikes are very much targeted. So I suspect Hamas will start hitting their own people, like the Muslim Brotherhood did in Egypt, when they want the other nations involved.

...”0bama called Netanyahu and told him that he would be willing to broker peace talks between Israel and Hamas”.....

I don’t think BiBi cares what Alibama offers at this point....the Israels are on a full mission and you can expect this won’t stop until they’ve accomplished what they set out to do. Besides, Obama will just send Kerry and how’s that been working thus far?

I don’t think I’m the only one who ‘laughed’ over Alibama offering to broker peace......the only thing he puts on the table is a pool stick.

Latest is General SiSi is being called on to broker between Shities and Sunni’s in Iraq. Will be interesting if he does.

SiSi reminds me of BiBi....both know their job and their people....both will do whatever is needed to protect their country...and it’s people.

The Arabs have never defeated an equal fighting force in entire history. They are basically cowards and bullies. They can behead a hapless soul with his hands tied behind back. And they can set bombs and detonate them while hiding safely from a distance. But they turn tail and run when confronted by a real fighting force. Arabs outnumber Jews in Israel by a factor of 100. Yet the Arabs have never won a war with Israel and never will.

Look for Bibi to give the famous “Bronx salute”.
