Hamas will never be defeated, just emboldened with new recruits.

Israel needs to change its policy of being biblically superior.

I cannot understand why the Palestinian people do not finger Hamas fighters within their midst.

What is happening now is leading to the creation of even more terrorists with parents and children who have lost their loved ones and siblings seething for revenge. It's an endless cycle.

The decisions being made in Israel today reflect the overwhelming majority of Israelis from all sides of the political spectrum. This is not Netanyahu’s war. Israel right now is more united than it has been for decades, not only in response to 1. Hamas, but to 2. Senator Schumer’s totally inappropriate comments from the Senate Floor, when he made his call for The Prime Minister to go the formal position of the US Senate Majority Leader, and 3. The abstaining and thus allowing a UNSC Resolution applauded by Hamas. Israel is at war for her very survival as a nation and a people. No other country in history has done more to protect the civilian population of an enemy bent on its total destruction than Israel. But it is still war and it is ugly brutal and destructive. Especially when that enemy hides among and under its own people. Perhaps more should be focused on demanding the hostages savagely taken by Hamas are returned and it surrender. That would end the destruction immediately.
