the Israelis had to grit their teeth and practice great restraint not to retaliate when Saddam was sending SCUDs during DESERT STORM

maybe this is another such time to indisputably let the world see who is the aggressor and avoid retaliating (except covertly) which strengthens the aggressor’s strategy

This is the problem with fighting asymmetric wars under PC ROE. Hamas is using “innocents” as human shields. I use the term “innocents” in quotation as IMHO they are the root of the problem, they voted for and support these inhuman mongrels and until the mindset of these “innocents” are changed and they become weary of supporting the cowardly Hamas leaders this type of warfare will not end.

I know it is not the children that support Hamas, but children must have parents. If these parents had any concern for their offspring their support for Hamas would wane. As it shows no sign of doing so we must conclude they are complicit I.E. combatants.

Time to target mosques now—leave none standing to hold rockets.

50 to 350# with up to 190# of the warhead being HE. A 500# has about the same amount of HE.

What you said is confusing. Or maybe its the word awesome that’s confusing.

Are you using awesome as a compliment?

If so, are you saying that if you had been in charge, you would not have been able to do the awesome thing, and instead of letting them kill you and your family, you would have defended yourself and your family?

Do you think that as you ‘grow’ in your faith, you will in time, ‘grow’ enough so that you will allow them to kill you so that you don’t have to hurt them?

Or do I have it all wrong?

“Awesome”? More like “misguided”.

confusing

First question ... yes
Second question .. yes
Third question ... only when dead
Fourth question .. (this one is more elaborate) I do not know, maybe I have it all wrong.
Full agreement ... confusing.
Pray though that the birds are at rest.

G-d bless the United Hatzalah volunteers. These guys work in the spirit of the NYFD. They’re on their way into danger zones when people are still running from them. The organization functions on donations.

What are YOU saying? Are you saying that we have no right to defend ourselves? By not defending ourselves and letting ourselves die, we condemn our families, and loved ones. I find it HIGHLY selfish to go without a fight.

That is something you need to take up with no-to-illegals, as it appears as though that is what she is saying, as garbled as her message is.

May the birds fly high and fast. (LOL)
