Yep. Blow every one of them up. Then, bring in the dozers and push the entire fetid area into the Med. End this shit once and for all.

And when that's done, drive a few missiles into the Iranian parliament building where they are chanting "Death to Israel!" and cheering.

Then, our nutless Congress should throw Joe Biden into prison for funding this shit. That's right boys and girls, we payed for all of those missiles.

Im a bit beyond that. That being said, Israel should start firing artillery at Gaza now, and stop when it’s empty of people.

Israel made a HUGE mistake when it didn't allow their citizens the right to keep and bear arms.

This could have been called to heel really quick with every last citizen curbstomping savages.

I seem to side with the majority here. Eradicate Hamas and their jihad bullshit with EXTREME prejudice. EVERY. LAST. ONE. Like YESTERDAY!!!

Calm down, please.

Netanyahu's announcement would seem to be a statement that the gloves are off. Let's hope this means they can just get it done.

Much of this video footage seems to be showing extensive use by Hamas of inexpensive civilian drones for surveillance and the dropping of AP and AT munitions.

The Ukraine War showcased the effectiveness of that to the world, and now others are readily adopting it as a low cost, low(er) skill option. Doesn't take much money or training to obtain and operate a large number of cheap Chinese "toy" quadcopters.

I suspect anti-drone tactics and tech research will continue to ramp up significantly in the world militaries.

Israel already taking out buildings used by Hamas:

Our member here, Batty67, has a son in the IDF paratroops. I am going to take a moment to pray for his safety and success in the coming days.

All Hamas is looking for is this retaliatory action to garner support against Israel.

Let them fly those air bikes again. They'll be shot down.
And the IDF won't be so kind to the ones that survive.

Well, the videos available on social media show these terrorists to be merciless barbarians- psychopaths. You can't even call them animals.

Everyone is carrying around two high-resolution cameras with them everywhere they go. The recorded evidence of the atrocities committed so far should be sufficient to convince any decent person that this is cold-blooded murder of non-combatants. Today, I have seen more than ever I care to see of such things. There is no justification for the acts being committed.

The strongest of military responses is called for. This is the only way. The alternative is to try to keep a rabid dog at arm's length for forever.

You cannot kill ideas, but you can kill the people responsible for putting those ideas into horrific action, and this is what must be done.

The United States must support Israel in their efforts to defend their nation, though we have a clownshow administration and a military looking more like a gay pride parade with every passing day.

Time to light this candle boys…RELEASE THE KRACKEN!

I’m sure glad Benny is in charge and not some liberal mouth piece.

I was going to post a twitter video of a particularly disturbing scene, but decided against it, these videos are just too fucked up to post in this forum. The atrocities are ISIS/Al-Qaeda level of insanity, just horribly brutal torture and death to men, women and children enjoying a holiday.

Anyone even remotely defending these terrorists are fucked up beyond humanity as well. And I've seen it this morning. How utterly sick.

No one should post anything like that.

It doesn't belong here.

People who have not fought Muslims do not realize how barbaric they are*. All the talk I heard from PhD strategists during the GWOT about the “rheostat of precision airstrike” just feels like garbage when you watch them roast children or run over the midsection of pregnant women with tanks (both things we watched during the ISIS campaign). Kill them all is the only correct answer. These aren’t Nazi’s or Russians or King George’s occupation forces where there can be war within some basic shared behavioral norms. It’s more like fighting the Commanche. And we only won that one by total destruction.

* edited to add: I’m specifically talking about violent jihadist extremists. I’m not smearing every Muslim by the actions of terrorist groups.

Netanyahu says Israel will take mighty vengeance for this black day.

I read that half of palestinians support their Hamas leaders, but who knows if that percentage should affect Israels' decision to take them out. The video I'm seeing so far are very precise targeted munitions in gaza, but maybe it's time to forego some precision and do some old fashioned carpet bombing. Maybe Israelis will get pissed off enough to sanction some good old fashioned kick ass. Hamas shoots over missiles they can't guide, so maybe the Israelis should return the favor with some bombs they can't guide so well either, it would be cheaper. Save the precision stuff for more important mission, help out hamas walmart customers and their supporters with additional free parking.

magna, I don't know much, but if that was my son I would not want his pix posted all over the internet for the entire world to see.

Another note about something posted here earlier. I had no idea in Israel guns could not be owned by private citizens. What do those in charge have to say for themselves now that defenseless men, woman and children were murdered,kidnapped and raped in their own homes?
