Israel is nothing without the US.

They aint shite.

But the US bombmakers hold the puppet strings in DC.

Therefore, war it shall be.

As it makes them richer.

Simple.

It's looking more and more like in the end, the terrorists are winning. Hundreds of thousands of Israelis are in the streets over there demanding Benny to give the terrorists whatever they want to get the remaining hostages back, alive or dead.

I'm just dumbfounded.

I don’t doubt that you’re dumbfounded.

But this was clear as day last October, but our war mongeriing, macho, baddass selves can’t see past the end of 16” barrel.

1. Hamas is an ideology. It can’t be killed with bullets and bombs. It has to be replaced with something. Bibi has no plan to replace it. It’s like catching cancer.

2. Israelis and Americans are now less safe than they were in Oct 7.

3. Very few hostages were rescued.

4. Israel’s economy is suffering greatly. Palestinians were their lowest class of blue collar labor. And the IDF now consists of many who were in their labor force a year ago.

5. Northern Israel is still evacuated and these people are pissed. They want to go home and be safe. It’d suck to be out of your house for 11 months with no end in sight.

Do they say these simple facts on Fox News? Or even CNN?

Or do the rich men in Richmond control the media?

All of that to say that Israel and what’s left of the Western world should just bow down to Islamic Extremist/Terrorist behavior because some other Islamic Extremist will take the place of the ones that are exterminated? What did these people think would happen after Oct 7? Those Islamic fricks knew exactly what would happen, sacrificing thousands didn’t matter to them when it comes to a Cult of a religion. If America is any less safe, it’s because of people coming in as they please for the last 12 years, and without a doubt some of those Islamic Extremist have made it in. People can defend themselves, and people in 1st world countries people can protest against the people that are dying to protect them. The true feelings will never change when it comes to Islam and Israel right to be a country. How can you truly have peace when the majority of people in a Cult want another group of people wiped off the face of the earth? Presidents come and go, just like so-called peace, but eventually history repeats itself. Washington is without a doubt a warmongering machine but several hundred million Islamic Cult members that would kill us without a second thought kind of makes that REAL threat a priority. The world be a lot more safe if the Islamic Extremist threat disappeared, but that’s not happening. Sooner or later shite will really hit the fan, simply because our values and the values of Islamic Extremism aren’t the same and can not coexist without extreme measures.

I appreciate that you replied.

I don’t necessarily disagree with much that you said.

But I also don’t think that any of it really negates much of what I said.

I wish you were here at this hightop table with me at the beach so we could discuss this face to face over a few beers or such.

I’m sure we could find much in common and find a few mutual enemies.

IMO... Islamic Extremism will continue to be a threat until the moderate to liberal Islamists step up and begin to begin to address the problems with this brand of Islam...

Also on a secondary note... the western world needs to be more serious about its opposition to nations that would exploit Extremists for their own purposes...

and by opposition I do not mean merely some form of military involvement...

Sunni Islam is a closed book, reinterpreting it would be considered heresy.

It's not going to change

while I get what you are saying here.. I would add "in the short term" as a qualifier..

I would also add nothing about what I said would be easy or a quick solution..

Only that (imo..) it is necessary..

Am I in the minority to believe Israel and Hezbolah will be at each other's throats sooner rather than later?

I wonder how Hezbollah is feeling right now after Israel injured over 3000 of their soldiers.

That's the default state. It may be quieter at some moments than others, but if either gets an inch of space to get after the other, they take it immediately.

Makes me think they had a page to look at. And, of course, it was timed for the average time it takes for someone to look at their pager..

Hezbollah and its affiliated proxies are in complete chaos right now so its definitely the right time for Israel to help Make Lebanon Great Again.

A significant portion of Israel wanted him out before October 7 happened and many of those people think he's purposely extending the war to avoid accusations of corruption. They don't trust him to end the war and they think it's his fault it happened in the first place.
