Wasn’t it posted here a few days ago that Obama had told Israel to stay out of the tunnels and not destroy them? If this is true then Obama is working for HAMAS.
Hate never sleeps and never stops!
If they would have worked this hard on something productive, they could have built a civilization by now.
Few thoughts. There was never any doubt that Israel would ultimately destroy the offensive capabilities of Hamas in the narrow confines of the Gaza strip. However while Israel has clearly won the battle, strategic vulnerabilities for Israel have been identified.
Hamas is funded and armed by Iran. Iran was keen to study and observe Iron Dome in action. Not only did they learn much about Israel’s defensive capabilities but they now know that Israeli economy can be gravely hurt by missile attacks on its population centers and especially Ben Gurion airport.The missiles fired by Hamas were unguided rockets. If Israel attacks Iran’s nuclear infrastructure, Iran will respond with ballistic missiles fired from Iran, Syria and Lebanon. Modern ballistic missiles not only have sophisticated guidance systems but some are incorporating stealth technology. Will Iron Dome and other Israeli defense systems stop them? If not Israel faces serious devastation which will make an attack on Iran far too costly. Also renegade states like ISIL have the revenue to purchase advanced missiles. They and rogue states or groups now pose a chronic serious threat.
Iran used Hamas and the Palestinians as a pawn gambit. However there is little doubt that the US will be played as chumps. Hamas needs a ceasefire since they have probably depleted their rockets and ammunition. However they won’t agree to one until they get a written guarantee from Kerry for $500 million in “humanitarian and reconstruction aid”.
Many suspect US aid paid for those concrete reinforced tunnels.
It has become obvious that the UN has become the enemy of civilization.
Destroying the tunnels is an inconvenience, not a disaster for the Moslems. They are relatively easy to create. The rock is soft like the rock in which the Cu Chi tunnels, a vast system of underground passageways and rooms were cut. Anatolia has a number of extensive underground cities that were cut through that soft rock and it was done fairly quickly.
Display an attitude of Us Against the Muslim World.
Don't expect sympathy, earn respect. Europe is in the same boat right now.
Set the standard, set the example after destroying your enemy be magnanimous.
Ruthlessness is the order of the day, but get it done. Be ruthless for a few days and get the FLICKING job done.
