We went on a blood thirsty rampage, flattened Gaza, carpet bombed the equivalent of a partial nuclear warhead of destruction. Killed thousands of Hamas terrorists and sympathizers, and our campaign has gone on for many days now. Now, we're sending boots on the ground. But what will be the outcome of this? A long drawn out war with Hamas fighting guerrilla style warfare, hiding in holes and buildings, ambushing and setting traps, hiding in buildings we've already flattened? How many of our sons and daughter brothers and sisters must die? Haven't we seen this already turning into a long drawn out war like Afghanistan? Every Hamas we kill, we radicalize ten more to join. Israel used to be the darling of the leftist liberals. Now the left is condemning us, and the only supporters of Israel are the far-right-wing genocidal nut-jobs (and the US). Our justice system and highest supreme court has become joke in-front of the world. We clear land in the West Bank for illegally settling the region. Now Hezbollah is firing rockets at us from Yemen. Preparing to invade us through the south Lebanon border. Syria may also take advantage and try and reclaim land we took in the 60s. Jordan is half Palestinian and could pressure their leaders to invade. In Egypt, the terrorists are trying to over-throw the government to install the radical Muslim Brotherhood. This invasion has done nothing but destroy peace and security for Israeli citizens. US is simply using us for strategic purposes for a proxy war and as a base in the Middle East to consolidate power. Will they abandon us if times get hard like Ukraine? Offering nothing but platitudes and false promises? Mr. Netanyahu's political career was against the ropes. He knew he had limited time left. Are we continuing this war so that he can keep power and control? He knows that no one will remove him as long as there is an on-going war. As an Israeli citizen, I ask my government to stop this invasion which will cause a massive threat to the peace and security of my nation.
I am not Israeli, but what do you propose as a response to the Hamas attack ?
They attacked once, Israel attacked 10 times and killed millions.
They started the attack on innocent civilians
Fwiw I don’t think US will abandon Israel unless it does something really really really heinous. But I’m not an expert on this stuff.
Gaza and west bank are pressure cooker environments aka the world's largest open space prison. Pressure will boil over. Need 2 state solution ASAP. Palestinians and Israelis both need to compromise to come to consensus otherwise it will continue like this. And US needs to end blind support for Israel.
TIL north Korea is apparently not a prison
Thank you for sharing your perspective. War is not always the solution to every problem. See what has happened in Afg and Iraq after years of war. More destabilization and radical extremism. Unlike the war mongering incels of blind, this bloodshed will only affect Israel and their neighbors in the long run not Rajeshs of blind…
I think it is a very polarized conflict and unfortunately no one good side vs other bad side. Globally, hamas kind of network should be decimated and ground to a halt. Question is - is it possible to do it without civilian loss? Answer is currently no, as they are too embedded with civilians, I do agree that US should just let the local folks battle it out and just send humanitarian aid. Stop funding shadow wars.
What if the same civilians are the reason that the Hamas is surviving and thriving
Are you saying 2 Million people in Gaza support Hamas ?
Only a jew would consider $ 100 billion in aid, two carrier strike groups, and ongoing access to intelligence a platitude. As for the proxy war is concerned. The Israel Palestine conflict is born of Zionist designs on holy land. Palestinians are your enemy, not America's. Finally, Israel sabatoged any chance of a two state solution long ago. You reap what you sow.
How do you spot a radical leftist? Hates their own. Criticizes everything but does not provide any reasonable ideas or solutions. Strives to be liked by everyone for his good spirit and love for babies and peace.
Fuckin nailed it mate
How do you spot a war mongering keyboard warrior. Has nothing at stake but wants other people to go to war with one another and kill while he/she sits , watches, and takes side on an anonymous platform like blind…

Thank you for writing this to share your perspective. I'm mostly ignorant of the situation, being too far removed as a layman US citizen, but my heart goes out to people like you affected by the violence.
