New York Post ^ | May 11, 2021 | Emily Jacobs

Tel Aviv came under a barrage of 130 rockets launched by Hamas from the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, sending residents fleeing for shelter as air raid sirens blared across Israel’s second-largest city.

Israel’s anti-rocket defense systems were activated Tuesday night, with the streaks of multiple interceptor missiles lighting up the skies over the area.

The heavy bombardment came in retaliation for an Israeli strike earlier on Tuesday evening that leveled a high-rise building in Gaza, which housed the offices of several top Hamas officials. That strike had come in ralition for earlier Hamas bombings.

Israel doesn't claim Iron Dome is 100% effective but that was a lot of interceptors in the air. Any count of how many rockets got through?

The bursts in flight were either hits or self destructs. Judging from the timing, most appear to be self destructs.

All,

Theoretical: If, for example, Biden used his presidential powers and ordered US troops to protect Israel is this something you would support or oppose? If called upon to go there to help Jerusalem against Hamas (we all know Iran is in the shadows) , would you go or support a loved one going?

There’s NO WAY this would be happening if Trump had won reelection. Sock Puppet Joe is as much a disaster for Israel as he’s been for the USA.

I am pro Israel, but no US boots on the ground troops should be committed. In the past the US has aided Israel with material, logistics, and intelligence. That should be the extent of US assistance. Thankfully, the Israelis can take care of themselves as Biden will never lift a hand in their favor.

After making the mRNA jab mandatory in Israel this is just going to expedite the inevitable.
