Israeli military action, IMHO, is quite justified. How long should it take if Mexican drug cartels started launching missiles into American cities before we send in the Marines? What should we do if the cartels ran a raid on one of our towns and murdered 1200 of our civilians of all ages and made off with over 100 hostages? The way I see it the Israelis are doing the best they can do with what they have got to do. Being our ally, we should support them to get it done and over with as quickly as possible (for now, at least).
What's left of Free America doesn't have the stomach to do what is necessary to end the power and devastation of the drug and trafficking trades and Marxist America uses them to reach the "transformation" goal. We The People are screwed as a result. The drug body count among family and friends, especially the young, is going up - latest victim just two weeks ago a niece is now a fentanyl vegetable in a hospital unlikely to recover.
Not sure what all the history is between Netanyahu and Hamas, but I've seen bits and pieces pointing to what you say - I believe you brought it up here in the Gulch. It looks like a scenario the US got into when it supported Islamic extremists in Afghanistan to push out the Russians decades ago where eventually we ended up with Al Queda and the Taliban. Unintended consequences creating a mess that needs to be cleaned up.
We have all these issues at home as well as Natural disasters that we have and are about to suffer from. If Those events happened in Israel would have our leaders send to them pallets of cash , but we will not see one fuQing shekel from them. We need new allies!
I also said this . “If Those events happened in Israel would have our leaders send to them pallets of cash , but we will not see one fuQing shekel from them. We need new allies!” Can’t thinQ of what any of our Ally’s have actually ever done to help US in my lifetime. Same with con-gress I suppose.
Volcanoes here in my Jurassic World can't even singe me.
Okay, made that up,
It's usually, "Dang, you're getting old!"
Used to have creepy dreams I would not really call a nightmare that made me fall out of bed five times within two months.
Stopped that weird nonsense with a simple Amazon purchase. That was three so years ago. Now I'm 77 and I don't need to be falling down.

Well, that didn't work out. My weight secures a right angle portion of a protective bed bar that slides between mattresses.
We even spoke on the telephone shortly after I showed up in The Gulch a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away..
He is a well-meaning good guy but I do not always agree with some of his opinions.
Hear that, Dobrien? That's when I usually just kinda cools it. Psst! And I'm usually into my cups this time of night. Am.
As for getting "into my cups" I only do that to help me sleep. I'm a teetotaler during the day. Two weeks ago I had a guest who had two beers. I stopped at one.
I am dino. Hear me roar.
I'm sure Dobrien can guess who she is but let's not state her name here. She probably doesn't care but I'd rather not take a chance on that. .
It is that at least during that last Cretaceous Period you could hear those critters making bird calls.
Imagine a T-Rex screeching like an eagle or else issuing ear-splitting chicken clucks while fighting a Triceratops.
Now hear me croon~~
Handicapped man I yam I yam!
Handicapped man I yam I yam!
Me dino will be happy as can be~~
When I get my artificial knee!

Once upon a time I was fit enough to be honorably discharged as a corporal from the Marines, use the GI Bill to earn a BS in journalism, work for 7 years as a reporter/photographer plus 3 months at a new job at a paper who did not like Reagan and me and worked 21 years at a state maximum security prison where at times things got physical. Then I worked semi-retired odd jobs until 2013 when I for a few years I already knew I was a type 2 diabetic noticing my feet were always feeling sore. That's before I very gradually developed charcot left foot.
Now I'm living in a house with an interior redesigned for a handicapped couple and for almost a year I've had an ulcerated hole in my left foot.
A couple of months ago a podiatrist gave up on trying to heal the hole and referred me to a wound specialist at a hospital.
I also need my right knee replaced due to a bone touching a bone but an orthopedic surgeon won't touch that until the wound in my left knee is replaced.
You have just read the short version. I've left out a lot of details because I don't want to be up all night. It's 10:59 PM right now.
We have grown kids with kids and Christmas, Thanksgiving and their birthdays keep us connected. My feelings for her, though, are comfortably zero. So I'm always polite.
I have two sons and the first is a stepson named Josh Moussavi after his not so real as I was father disappeared after running off supposedly to Tuscaloosa. My ex when we were married led me to believe that was an Italian surname. That blew up in her face when it became world news that Iran exiled their President Moussavi for being too moderate.
Not caring to be connected to Iran or Islam, Josh had his name changed to Autry, the name of my ex's next hubby after me.
Autry was long gone while I kept up with my child support and kept all three kids one weekend after the next instead of once a month being the norm.
When Josh got married to Kristen (they now have two boys), Josh blew my mind when he named me to be his best man. Josh and family are members of the First Baptist Church. Not me. I have a couple of issues with that particular denomination.
My ex had three boyfriends that I know of and they are~~
1. Secretly a teenager while married to me until her youngest sister told me what she was up to. Her family has always been on my side, believe it or not.
2. A security guard so down and out that he slept in the backroom of the store he guarded.
My ex met him in that store. Finally they shacked up at her home and that included a little daughter that the guy had previously stashed somewhere somehow. Later during a conversation about that relationship, my ex confided, "I put a stop to that."
3. Her last beau was the most amusing. He falsely claimed to be a Navy SEAL and that he was nicknamed "Flipper" for swimming under a sizable boat from end-to-end. When Flipper turned out to be a convicted felon who served time with no military record at all, my ex told him that the police would have to be present if he wanted to come back to fetch his sizable tropical fish aquarium.
Lisa my ex had that aquarium for years thereafter.
Now that she lives with my daughter as an invalid, it now dawns on me that Lisa no longer has that aquarium. I don't care what happened to it either.
Thanks Brother
Wish the best for you.
