Joe wants a ceasfire and no go into Rafiach- in other words, end the war/surrender. no surprise since Joe’s move in UN days ago - and his embarrassing surrender to the Taliban in Afghanistan.

The World Kitchen vans were smuggling Hamas leaders. It was blown up miles from where they were suppose to be.

I am surprised nobody is talking about Biden’s disastrous Afghanistan pull out and the killing of the Afghanistan aid worked and several children in what was called a “righteous strike” by US military in supposed retaliation for the terror bombing that killed 13 service members. The fog of war is real. Israel didn’t call Biden and tell him how to pull our troops out of Afghanistan.

Bu Ukraine has full go ahead

U.S. policy with respect to Gaza will be determined by our assessment of Israel’s immediate action on these steps

Bibi: Do what you want - we're going to kill these animals.

[Rowdyone]

Biden is insisting that the IDF do what America was unable to do in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Vietnam ... you cannot unleash weapons of war against an enemy without incurring collateral damage. These volunteers, well meaning as they may have been, knew what could happen to them especially when Hamas uses innocent appearing services to hide behind. But for Biden to use this tragedy to attempt to shore up political support for Democratic Hamas in Michigan is reprehensible.

Israel didn’t call Biden and tell him how to pull our troops out of Afghanistan.

That's because Biden has a bigger wallet, which is our money.
