The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) continued to attack Hamas terrorists in Rafah and throughout Gaza on Monday, which was Israel’s independence day, despite continued international criticism and caution from the White House.

In a statement, the IDF said:

IDF troops continue their operations against terror targets in the area of eastern Rafah and on the Gazan side of the Rafah crossing. IDF troops eliminated several armed terrorist cells in close-quarters encounters on the Gazan side of the Rafah crossing.

In eastern Rafah, IDF troops eliminated a number of terrorists and located weapons. An IAF aircraft struck a terrorist cell that was exiting a launch site. In addition, the IDF struck a launch post from which additional terrorists operated and fired at IDF troops.

“terrorists”

I think it would be correct to say that not every HAMAS fighter is a terrorist.

Diminishing returns, but keep at it, Bibi!

Every Hamas “fighter” is a terrorist at heart. Like bedbugs, the only solution is extermination.

Miss Israel Gets Threatened by Knife-Wielding Antisemite While Talking to New Yorkers About Israel

“Miss Israel Noa Cochva was threatened by an antisemitic woman in New York City this week while trying to have peaceful conversations with locals about Israel.

On Monday, Cochva participated in a social experiment with the organization Facts for Peace in which she walked around Washington Square Park in New York City while holding a sign that read, “I’m an IDF [Israel Defense Forces] soldier, ask me anything.” The 25-year-old beauty queen, who represented Israel in the Miss Universe pageant held in Eilat in 2021, was approached by some pro-Israel supporters who hugged her and thanked her for being brave and speaking out in solidarity with the Jewish state. Speaking to an American military officer who stopped to talk with her, Cochva discussed feeling a sense of purpose for serving her country. Cochva served as a combat medic in the ongoing Israel-Hamas war in Gaza.”

Lies.. they are surely all terrorists.
Same goes for the so called civilians.
The pro-outgroup bias in the name of virtue signaling will be the demise of many.

I’ve never heard an Israeli chant “death to Christians” but it’s on the lips of every Palestinian.
