Honest question. If your local police department when to the hood and started handing out guns and money to gang members what would you say? If those same gang members went out to kill a family of 5 would you put any complicity in the police who handed the guns to those members? Half of Gaza is unemployed and another 80% live off foreign aid. Gaza HAS NO ECONOMY. What exactly did Mosaad think hamas was doing with billions of dollars when living conditions in gaza were getting worst every year?
Also @AroundTheWorld you are bending over backwards to come up for a reason Bibi would do that when he himself has given his reason , being to undermine the Palestinian authority and fragment their hopes for a 2 state. his own words stating his intentions and you’re going off coming up with excuses. I don’t think your stance is being pro Israel, it contradicts the Israeli media above. It seems more pro Bibi. I think being pro Israel right now is approach from a stable and pragmatic POV. Not carpet bombing Gaza and all the hostages (who claimed they were more scared of being killed by the IDF than hamass). I mean I won’t even get into the rerarded notion of carpet bombing some how damaging underground tunnels which **surprise surprise** are still intact
I agree that civilians will die and Hamas needs to be eradicated. But similar to the carpet bombing (which had left tunnels intact and killed largely civilians) you have to target the sewage and swamp. Bibi and his accomplices are guilty and quite frankly need to be tried in an international court for their incompetence and crimes against humanity. that is how you bring good faith to the peace process talks.

Yes I had heard that story. I think Biden is in a really tough spot here and rather than getting any credit politically is getting hit from all sides. We see the Left upset at Biden for supporting Israel in the first place and the right reflexively not giving him any credit.
Netanyahu allowing money to Flow to Hamas is a serious question that needs to be answered along with why did the IDF and Israeli intelligence get seemingly taken by surprise and react slowly to Oct, 7. This is again similar to the questions they were raised in the US after 911.
This is where all the hate comes from. This must be stamped out in the future. https://www.memri.org/tv/road-to-october-seven-education-to-jihad-and-martrydom
Hezbollah has hundreds of thousands of missiles aimed at Israel with far greater precision and sophistication than whatever Hamas is throwing right now. Israelis have a right to be freaked out about that existential threat and what it means by pulling Iran deeper into it. That said, Bibi and his right(er) wing coalition buddy are NOT the right people to helm this shitshow I don't think Trump would send two carrier groups to check Iran and patrol shipping lanes. I bet he would send one, blame Obama again for the Iran deal, and b**** out loud at the Franch for not sending a destroyer there. Swing a few more rounds at Mar a Mordor and call it an afternoon for some prime time lib owning **** tweets
