[W:1103] Netanyahu tells Israel ‘We are at war’ after Hamas launches an unprecedented attack on the country - Live Thread.

And of course you have cast-iron evidence for that ridiculous claim, and not merely an opinion born of ignorance. Let's see it.

Right wingers have a habit of conflating left wing disdain of Likud right wingers running Israel as hating Israel and Jews. Just more rank lying.

 

[TomFitz]

Really. So no attacks against Israel came from gaza prior to the blockade. And a group that seeks the total destruction of Israel as a stated goal had not just taken over that area. Interesting.


Maybe if the people living there want better living conditions they should stop attacking Israel stop letting terrorists run their country.

Yes, really. And Israeli forces routinely launched random attacks inside Gaza with impunity for the last 20 years.

There is no doubt about it

You have to remember that most of these talk radio righties know nothing of Middle Eastern politics, and have ignored it for years.

Their idea of what Isreal is was formed by watching a 1960 Hollywood movie.

It's their standard tactic, stupidly believing that people will fall for their empty 'anti-Semite' accusations and cower in shame. I have news for them...

And your evidence is...? I'll wait, I have all day-or is this one of those 'but everyone knows' situations some folk are so fond of?

They are running the same con about this as they do here. If you don't love our slogans, our symbols or our party then you not only hate us, you also hate America and God. Trying to victim card themselves into a perpetual third rail is how they try to solidify their authoritarian stature.

That claim makes no sense at all.

 

[poweRob]

That claim makes no sense at all.

I hope it's true.

 

[snakestretcher]

Dumb move. Do you trust Hamas not to kill them, as they promised, especially when America advertises the fact that special forces are on the alert? Remember, Hamas have no problem dying for their cause, and alerting the enemy of your intentions isn't the smartest idea.

Jake Tapper may be surprised but im not. Universities today are the home of left-wing anti-semitic whites.

Yes. People who are surprised at what's coming out of Harvard haven't been paying attention.

It doesnt necessarily mean US boots on the ground in Gaza though

1. The Hamas attack was pure evil.
2. Israeli policies have hurt the cause for peace.
3. Israel has a right to defend itself, but overreaction could be an abject catastrophe.

 

[Lycanthrope]

Fox news...

So wait - the MAGA media talking point about releasing 6B to Iran and they're now financing terror with it was just more willful misinformation?

But MAGA media wouldn't do that, would they???

Every point is spot on.

 

[jaypatriot]

And just maybe you should quit being so defensive when facts you don't like are presented, and making assumptions about people you don't know. How about that?

You are still on the wrong side of this conflict.
But, then again, you have known from the beginning, when you started condemning Israel.

They're just massive liars.

Some of these lefties are really idiots. A woman was brutally murdered. Does it matter if it was Shani or someone else

Is this confirmed? Her own mother said that that was her daughter in the truck bed, identified by her dreadlocks and tattoos.

Of course, the mother is now claiming her daughter is alive, based on information she received from somewhere.

I suggest you examine the history of the conflict. That might clue you in. I'm on nobody's side, and in several posts I have been clear that I condemn the attack by Hamas, just as I condemn all the unprovoked attacks by Israel against Palestinian men, women and children. There are no good guys here, and no sides to be taken.

Oh boy, let's scour the internet for an example of one person making an objectionable comment and then tar all our opponents with it!

What fun!
